SimplePark next to other apps. Also where they do better.

Every parking app charges differently. We put them side by side, with the prices from their own sites, the sources alongside and the date we last checked it all.

Parkmobile and Park-line are now part of EasyPark. If that is where you come from, look at EasyPark.

Why we make these comparisons

One charges a percentage of your parking fee, another a fixed amount per parking action, a subscription or a monthly fee. That makes it hard to see what an app costs you in a month. We put them side by side, so you can choose by the way you park.

Honest about what we do well, and what we don’t

With SimplePark you know what it costs before you start. We want the same from a comparison. A comparison that only shows where we win is an advert. So every page also says what the other app does well, and the worked examples show it when that app comes out lower.

SimplePark is not always the cheapest, and we don’t claim it is. If you park almost every working day, a subscription is often cheaper. If you park in a parking garage or abroad, SimplePark can’t help you. These pages say so as plainly as they say where we do better.

When do you choose SimplePark?

And when not. It depends on how often you park, what a parking action costs and where you park.

SimplePark suits you if

  • you park now and then. There is no subscription. If you don’t park for a month, you pay nothing that month.
  • you want to know what it costs first. You pay € 0.29 per parking action, whether you stay ten minutes or an afternoon, and € 0.29 per top-up or direct debit. You see the zone, the rate and the maximum parking time before you start.
  • you want your parking action to stop on time. When you start, you choose an end time. At that time your parking action stops by itself, even when your phone is off.
  • you want someone to message at any hour. Support on WhatsApp, day and night.

Another app suits you better if

  • you park almost every working day. Then a subscription, such as EasyPark Go or Yellowbrick Unlimited, is often cheaper than paying per parking action.
  • your parking actions cost little. If a parking action costs less than about € 2 to € 3 in parking fees, 15% of that with EasyPark Small is less than what SimplePark costs.
  • you park in a parking garage or abroad. SimplePark is for street parking in the Netherlands. EasyPark and Yellowbrick also work in parking garages, EasyPark in more than twenty countries, Flitsmeister and SMSParking in Belgium too.
  • you want to park without a smartphone. With SMSParking you can by text message or with a parking card, with Yellowbrick by phone call.

How you can check it all

We read the other apps’ prices on their own sites. The links to those pages are under every table, so you can read them yourself. Above it is the date we last checked that app’s prices and details. We check them again regularly and add the new date when we do.

SimplePark’s amounts in the tables and worked examples come from the same source as our rates. If they change, these change with them.

The worked examples count only what the app costs: the parking fee goes to the municipality and is the same in every app. Under the examples it says what we count, the € 0.29 per top-up or direct debit included.

Questions about comparing?

Is your question not here? Message us on WhatsApp, 24/7.

Is SimplePark always the cheapest?

No. If you park now and then, SimplePark is often cheaper. If you park almost every working day, or a parking action costs only a few euros, another app can be cheaper. Every comparison shows in five worked examples which app comes out lower where.

Is the parking fee lower with SimplePark?

No. The parking fee goes to the municipality and is the same in every app. What differs is what the app itself charges. That is what we compare.

Where do the other apps’ prices come from?

From their own sites. Under the table of every comparison are the pages we read, and above it the date we read them.

Why is my app not here?

We started with four well-known parking apps. Parkmobile and Park-line are now part of EasyPark, so you find them under EasyPark. If you miss an app, let us know on WhatsApp.

Is something wrong?

Message us on WhatsApp. We look into it, correct the comparison and add the new date.
