Features & Capabilities

MPLS Parking makes parking in Minneapolis simple and secure by letting you pay from your mobile device, receive alerts before your time expires, and even extend your session without going back to the meter. Key features include mobile payments, a find my car tool, Face ID access, event parking, and Snow Emergency Alerts.

Registration is free—create your account, add your vehicle, and you can park and pay across Minneapolis spots. The app uses PCI-DSS compliant security and third-party audits, and it guides you through a quick flow: create an account, choose a license plate, pick a location on the map, select duration, and confirm payment. Time-extension rules vary by location.

User Reviews

Reviewers praise MPLS Parking for being more convenient and quicker than pay stations and appreciate features like live activities. However, the majority report reliability and security friction: frequent logouts and session expiration, tedious two-factor authentication, inconsistent payments and charges, and occasional crashes during purchase. These issues undermine the app’s convenience, with many users wishing for session persistence, more reliable payment flows, and an option to end or transfer a parking session without being charged for others.

Pros

Very convenient and easy to use compared to pay stations.
Handy to use and quicker than paying at a kiosk.
Live activities feature reintroduced, improving visibility of status.
Sign in with Apple offers easier login for some users.
Preloaded payment on the app reduces the need to carry coins.

Cons

Frequent automatic logout and session expiration requiring constant re-login.
Two-factor authentication via email is slow or unreliable.
Payment failures and incorrect charges, including Apple Pay errors and repeated re-entry of payment info.
App crashes or mid-transaction failures ('wrong login info') that interrupt payments.
Inability to end a parking session or cancel after vacating; continued charges.

Recent reviews

A convenience fee! What for? You require us to pay digitally! Should be rolled into the price. Just another way for the governments of Minnesota to do what they do best…. Nickel and dime their population. Beautiful place to live, but this is a classic example of a slow leak of affordability.

I have not used for a while so tried to log in to make sure it still works. It didn’t. It has my cell number recorded but any attempt to reset the password doesn’t work. I received the reset at one of my emails, reset the password and it doesn’t accept it. My other email never receives the reset. And since it already has my cell number stored I can’t create a new account. Bad software QA and no method for contacting anyone to fix.
