RingGo Corporate
RingGo Corporate is a special version of RingGo, designed for business employees. It saves time and hassle by allowing businesses to set up a prepaid account, which nominated employees can use to pay for their parking when on business. There’s no need for employees to know company credit card details or pay and claim. They also get alerted when their parking is about to run out, reducing the risk of receiving a parking charge notice.
From the business point of view, organisations receive an HMRC approved consolidated parking invoice which itemises VAT that can be claimed back, together with management reports that help better control parking costs. For more information about the solution please see https://corporate.myringgo.com/
Can I get a VAT receipt?
If you need a VAT receipt for your RingGo parking session, you can view and print it online by logging in at www.myRingGo.co.uk. If you provide us with your e-mail address, you can opt to receive a receipt automatically every time you park. Just login and add your email address into the settings menu.

How much does RingGo cost?
There is no charge for registering with RingGo and no charge for downloading or using the RingGo smartphone applications.
If you call RingGo, the number used is a geographic one, so you are charged the standard rate agreed with your mobile phone operator. Such calls are often included free within mobile phone packages, so if you receive a free “bundle of minutes”, your call will usually be included within this.
How much does RingGo cost on top of the parking charge?
There is an additional 20p ‘convenience charge’ each time you use RingGo. We will remove this charge from 1 August 2024.
There are also optional 10p* SMS text messages – one to confirm your parking session, another to alert you that you parking session will expire in 10 minutes and the option to extend your parking session (up to the maximum stay allowed in that car park).
*Remember to OPT OUT if you do not want one or both of these texts.
You can control which SMS texts you receive by going to 'notifications' in your RingGo app.
