As of June, Nairobi City County has implemented a new parking system, replacing Jambo Pay with the Internal Revenue Management System (IRMS).
The IRMS system allows users to pay for parking using mobile money options such as MPesa, providing a convenient and secure way to manage parking payments.
To pay for parking in Nairobi, follow these steps:
- Send a message to the Nairobi City County ePayments service, and select the 'Parking' option.
- On the next page, choose from the following options:
- Daily Parking
- Seasonal Parking
- Off-street Parking
- Penalties
- Parking Status
- Offloading Zone
- Back
- Main Menu
- If you want to pay for parking for one day, select the 'Daily Parking' option and enter your vehicle's number plate.
- Choose the zone you are in (e.g., CBD, Westlands, Kilimani, etc.) and select the category of your vehicle (e.g., private car, bus, etc.).
- You will be asked to pay the applicable fee (e.g., Ksh. 200 for a private car).
- Select '1' to proceed with payment, and a message will pop up on your phone asking if you want to pay the specified amount.
- Enter your MPesa PIN for automatic payment.
Upon completion, a message will be sent to your phone confirming your payment details.
