Parking-app convenience fees add a charge to the posted parking price, and the data shows that $0.35 per session is typical across U.S. places with a published fee. The median is $0.35, matching the most frequent amount, which appears in 108 places; $0.45 is next, at 56 places, followed by $0.30 in 30. Fifteen places charge no app fee, while Anchorage has the highest listed flat fee, $0.70. The figures were checked November 5, 2026, and cover 312 places in 43 states and Washington, D.C.; 13 entries do not publish a fee.
ParkMobile dominates the data, with fees listed for 289 places, a $0.35 median, and a range from $0 to $0.75. Other app operators appear in far fewer places: Passport has five, Flowbird three, IPS Group two, and PayByPhone two; their medians range from zero to $0.40. The place-by-place listing identifies each app, fee, and the page or agency information used to verify it, with check or update dates. Because fees vary by municipality - even within the same app network - and some are unpublished, the figures offer a broad comparison rather than a universal rate. They also describe only the app surcharge, not the underlying cost of parking.
