Metered Pay-by-Plate

The City of Deerfield Beach has implemented a Pay-by-Plate parking system. This system uses License Plate Recognition (LPR) technology. Simply enter your vehicle license plate number at one of the multi-space pay stations located throughout the City. A Parking Enforcement Specialist with the Broward County Sheriff's Office, will scan the license plate using LPR technology to confirm payment of the patron's parking session.

Payments

The meters accept Visa, MasterCard, Discover, American Express, and coins. When paying with coins the hour must be completed. Meters do accept mixed payments (coins + credit card).

Way-To-Park Mobile App

The City of Deerfield Beach has partnered with Way-To-Park, a smartphone app that provides a touchless option for parking payments. Now there is no need to run back to the meter, or search for coins – use Way-To-Park instead!
The app is available for download on iPhone and Android.

How To Use Way-To-Park

  1. Download the app on iPhone or Android and complete the registration process, including your plate number, credit card information and alerts.
  2. Pay for parking using the correct zone. You can find your zone by using the street signs behind the parking meter, entering the zone number in the search bar or panning the map.
    • Zone 8501 - Kirk Cottrell Pavilion Lot
    • Zone 8502 - Pier Parking Lot
    • Zone 8503 - Hillsboro/Fire Station Lot & Areas
    • Zone 8504 - Main/South Beach Lot & Areas
    • Zone 8505 - S of SE 4th & W of A1A
    • Zone 8505 - Pioneer Park
    • Zone 8507 - Sullivan Park
    • Zone 8508 - Boat Slip at Sullivan Park
  3. Once you paid for parking, you will be able to see a countdown on your screen and receive a reminder when your time is about to expire. With a simple click, you can extend your time.
  4. If you originally paid for parking at a metered pay-by-plate machine, and it's about to expire, you can start a new session using the app. Parking enforcement officers will use your license plate number to verify that you have paid for parking.

*Please Note: There is a $0.35 surcharge for every transaction utilizing the WayToPark mobile app.
