How to Pay

We accept all major credit cards, Apple Pay and Google Pay. RDU parking is cashless.

Four ways to pay:

  • New! Parking Mobile Pay — Save time and scan the QR code on your ticket with your phone to pay before you leave. No app required.
  • Pay-on-foot kiosks — Located throughout the parking garage and lots. Pay before returning to your vehicle.
  • Exit lane pay stations — Pay as you exit.
  • By credit card — Insert or tap your card as you enter, then insert or tap again as you exit.

Once payment is made, you have 30 minutes to exit your lot.

Book Parking in Advance

Guarantee entry into the lot of your choice by reserving parking online at least 24 hours before your trip. Your license plate opens the entrance and exit gates automatically — no payment needed at the gate. If your gate doesn’t open automatically, just scan your booking QR code.

No Card? No Problem.

Guests without a credit or debit card can convert cash to a prepaid card at ReadySTATION® kiosks located in both terminals, and at the terminal garage exit plaza building lobby (1050 Cargo Drive).
