A method for payment when parking vehicles in which a credit card or debit card is used for post-payment. A credit card or debit card is caused to be read by means of a card reader (2) of a parking machine at the commencement of a parking period, as also at the termination of the parking period. The registration number of the vehicle is input into the parking machine (1) by the person who is parking the vehicle, using means (6, 7) that are associated with the parking machine. The card number and registration number are transferred to a computer (4) and stored associated with each other in a database (5). When the said credit card or debit card is read at the commencement of a subsequent parking period, the registration number with which the card was most recently associated in the database (5) is retrieved and displayed on a display (6) on the parking machine together with a question concerning whether the person parking the vehicle is to park the vehicle that has the specified registration number or not. |
