PAYG
In 2025, UWA transitioned to the Pay As You Go (PAYG) system, replacing annual and pre-paid permits (this does not impact ACROD permits). Staff, students and visitors must use the EasyPark app to start and stop parking each day. With PAYG, you only pay for parking when you find a bay.
- No annual or pre-paid permits: All users pay only for the hours they park
- EasyPark app: For instructions on setting up and using EasyPark, visit the EasyPark FAQs page.
Salary packaging option for staff
More details on this option will be made available on the Staff Intranet.
Staff: Find information on the Staff Intranet for current staff parking.
Visit EasyPark FAQs for information on how to use the EasyPark parking system at UWA.
We encourage the use of sustainable transport options, such as public transport and cycling, to reduce on-campus parking demand. Information about our cycling facilities and public transport options can be found on the Transport and Parking webpage.
FAQs
-
How will parking revenue be used?The revenue will be invested in a range of transport-related initiatives including expanding shuttle bus routes, improving end-of-trip facilities (such as bike storage and shower facilities) and installing e-mobility charging stations. We are also exploring more affordable offsite parking options.
-
Why is UWA moving to PAYG?The PAYG system aligns with Australian Consumer Law (ACL), which requires parking permits to guarantee a parking bay, which isn’t always possible at peak times. With PAYG, you only pay for parking when you find a bay.

Will the rate increase guarantee a parking space on campus?No, a parking space on campus is not guaranteed.
