Majlis Bandaraya Shah Alam (MBSA) has announced that motorists can pay for parking under its jurisdiction with the JomParking app.
If you’re new to the JomParking, good for you, because in conjunction with the app’s acceptance by the Shah Alam city council, there’s a promo code. Download the app from Google Play or the App Store, register and use the promo code JPFREE to get 100 free coins.
In the neighbouring city of Subang Jaya, MBSJ recently announced that payment for its two-hour parking lots can now be made via Touch n Go eWallet, in addition to Setel, which was integrated late last year. Originally, one could only pay with Smart Selangor Parking and Flexi Parking apps. The JomParking app is also supported to make it five payment options in total there.

To be honest, we shouldn’t need so many different apps to be paying for parking. Each app has it’s own credit storage and you have to put money in all different wallets just because there’s no one size fits all which is a fundamental problem. There should only be one and only one parking app in the whole country. FlexiParking is so far the best in Wilayah + Selangor where it pays each municipality based on your GPS. A strategy needs to be put in place to replicate such app for the entire country perhaps making FlexiParking as the app of choice. Then you don’t have to worry about what/how to pay in Malacca, Terengganu, Perak, etc when you happen to be there on a road trip.
I travel across states often. I have 5 different parking apps on my phone. FIVE.
the worse thing is, all 5 of those apps dont work very well.
Park je xyah bayar. Its our human rights. Fight for it as we fought for democracy.
Someone plz trigger YB Anthony Loke :)
Actually this is a good news for me since i often travel from nilai to shah alam and I have been using Jomparking in nilai and kuala lumpur for quite sometime, for now there are no major problem yet.
there are at least 3 eParking apps for Selangor right now.
To be honest, public should have their rights with option to use which apps they prefer to use. Each app has it’s own advantages in term of UI, user friendly etc. There should be no monopoly in the businesses with healthy competition. Jomparking is so far the best apps with 40K downloads rather than just 204. A strategy needs to be put in place to replicate such app for the entire country perhaps making Jomparking as the app of choice. I used Jomparking and hope for the the company to keep on bringing the best!
I have tried a lot the parking app including penang smart parking and park@perak. I am sure ultimately each state and councils want to control do their own parking app.
The problem is the public wants one app that works and covers the most grounds and councils.
The problem with jomparking is the locations are very limited. and they are very slow to get new locations. Smart Selangor Parking currently allows us to park mostly in selangor but that’s it.
Flexi Parking so far provides the most locations, and the GPS is more accurate than Jomparking, plus jomparking mana location is not available like KL. A lot of “Unfortunately, JomParking is currently unavailable in your location.”
Not a flexiparking fan or jomparking fan, just practically speaking flexiparking may be more useful.
Plus a lot of the 2 hours parking, jomparking is not still be used. I also noticed whenever a new 2 hours parking site is launched, the first 2 apps that are available smart selangor parking and flexi parking, then after that we have to wait for months only then others come in….
