The Town of Cobourg monitors, regulates and enforces parking on Town streets in order to meet the needs of residents, businesses and visitors.
The Town of Cobourg has partnered with HonkMobile to offer a new way to pay for parking at on-street and pay & display parking lot location.
With the Honk app, residents and visitors can seamlessly search, pay for and top up parking from a phone, tablet or computer.
Coin operated parking meters and Pay and Display machines will remain available. HonkMobile is available in addition to the existing payment options.
How it works:
1. Download the HonkMobile app. Find it at honkmobile.com, Google Play or the App Store
2. Set up your account. Add as many vehicles and payment sources as you like to your profile.
3. Use HonkMobile to pay for your parking in all Cobourg on-street locations and Pay & Display lot
Frequently Asked Questions
| How does the Town know I’ve paid for parking? |
| Each parking transaction is registered with your licence plate. Parking enforcement officers have a real-time list of compliant plates available on their handheld devices. You do not need to display anything in your vehicle. |
| Can I use Honk to reserve a parking spot? |
| No. All parking is first-come-first-serve. While it is possible to purchase your parking through HonkMobile before you arrive at the parking lot, please keep in mind that HonkMobile does not reserve you a spot or guarantee that space will be available when you arrive. We recommend that you wait to purchase your parking after you have located an appropriate space. |
| What methods of payment are available? |
| Most customers use a credit card, but Honk also accepts PayPal, VISA debit and Masterpass digital wallet. Cash and credit cards will still be accepted at pay & display machines. Coins are still accepted at parking meter locations. |
| I need proof of payment for my parking. How do I get a receipt? |
| Once you’ve paid for parking, Honk will email you a receipt. You can also view all your transactions by visiting the Receipts page in your profile. |
| What happens if I get a ticket but I have paid through Honk? |
| However infrequently, mistakes happen. Please ensure that the license plate entered in the app matches the one on the infraction. If you still believe that you have received a ticket in error, you may contact the Engineering Department at 905-372-4555. |
