User reviews

Not for tourists

You must be a resident of Portugal to use it

Worst parking app I’ve ever used

Worst parking app I’ve ever used

App doesn’t work

Cannot register as a user. Potentially because you need to enter Portuguese tax information. If you are from another country how can you enter that information?

Embarrassing app

In hope that someone from EMEL reads this:
1. There is no need to log me out if I do not use the app for few days.
2. Why do my MBWay top-ups take hours to be reflected in the app?
3. Why not allow me to pay via MBWay using my mobile number instead of Entity and Reference?
4. Why not enable ApplePay or GooglePay instead of a huge credit card form?
5. Why not allow “balance” pill shown on active parking screen to take me to balance top-up - it looks like a button, so you can make it into one
… just a little bit of love and usage from your own team would make you realise how small changes can improve your UX.

Not helpful

You cannot register without a NIF - which is a Portuguese tax number, so this is useless for anyone else.

FAQ

What does the ePark EMEL app do?

The ePark EMEL app is designed for paying for parking in Lisbon. It uses geolocation to help you identify where you've parked and calculates the cost based on the time you need. You receive alerts before your parking expires and can extend it or terminate it early to only pay for the time used.

How do I add funds to my ePark EMEL account?

After registering and validating your account, you can easily add funds to your ePark EMEL balance. The app supports loading funds through MB (Multibanco) or PayPal, providing convenient options for topping up your account.

Can I use ePark EMEL for business parking?

Yes, the app offers two profiles: Personal and Company. When a company joins ePark Empresas and authorizes an employee, that employee can use the company account for parking while on duty. This allows for separate tracking and payment for business-related parking.

What happens if I finish parking before the paid time is up?

A key feature of ePark EMEL is the ability to terminate your parking session early. If you return to your car before your paid time expires, you can end the session and will only be charged for the actual time you used, with a minimum charge of 15 minutes.

Is ePark EMEL available for all cities?

Based on the description, ePark EMEL is specifically designed for parking payments within the city of Lisbon. It utilizes a map based on Lisbon's layout and is widely used by those who live and park in the city.
