Same amount: Carry out the step "Continue to payment" again - a new debit will not take place in this case.

Different amount: Carry out the step "Continue to payment" again - the new amount will be debited in full and the originally paid amount will be refunded to you in the same step. Refunds will be made via the payment method that you have used during your original booking and can take a few days depending on the payment method until the credit is made.

No, there are no additional fees for booking changes. However, additional costs may be incurred, as prices are calculated dynamically. The earlier you book your parking space, the cheaper it is. As such, last-minute changes may cost more.

If you have already entered the parking location, a booking can be extended until the originally booked time of exit.

To extend a booking after entry, you can edit your booking in the confirmation and specify the new exit time under extend parking duration. Additional costs are possible due to the extended parking duration. If your booking has not yet started, you can change it yourself online under edit booking.
