Allstar has unveiled a new service for its customers, enabling them to pay for parking at more than 13,500 parking locations across the UK.

Allstar Parking has been launched in partnership with PayByPhone, which has more than 18 million registered users in the UK, so many drivers will have already downloaded and used the app for their private parking needs. 

By leveraging its relationship with PayByPhone, Allstar Parking enables drivers to lodge their Allstar card in the PayByPhone app to pay for their business parking needs with no additional admin.

This, says Allstar, comes at an opportune time for business fleets, as in the six months up to last October, parking fines were being issued at a rate of one every two seconds and operators handed out a record number of around 13 million parking charge notices in the 2023-4 tax year.

Paul Holland, managing director for UK/ANZ Fleet at Corpay, including UK brand, Allstar, said: “We’re on a mission to make fuel, EV, and business payments simple. 

“Today, we’re excited to be able to extend this by offering simplified parking payments to our customers, strategically leveraging our relationship with PayByPhone, a well-recognised parking app already used by millions of consumers today. 

“This is another value add we’re incorporating into our comprehensive solution to support businesses to manage costs, saving time and money.”

PayByPhone is a global provider of digital parking payment solutions that was acquired by Allstar’s parent company, Corpay, in 2023. 

Adam Dolphin, managing director of PayByPhone UK, said: “Our purpose has always been to simplify driver journeys. I’m pleased that through our relationship with Allstar, we’re now able to bring this to commercial use for the UK’s businesses and fleets. 

“It is one less headache for them as they carry out their working day and enables them to focus on what they do best.”
