Guest Parking Coupon Codes

Guest Parking coupon codes replace the one day/guest parking permit booklets that were used for departmental guests to park on campus for non VIU sponsored events. Coupon codes can be purchased for any dollar amount needed. 

Complete the Guest Parking Coupon Code Request if a guest parking permit code is required. All requests will need to be approved prior to a coupon code being issued. A request form is required regardless of whether it is a new request or a request to add funds. There is a $10 administration fee applied to all new coupon codes.

Coupon code dollar amounts can be tracked and remaining balances confirmed by sending an email to viuparking.ca@group-indigo.com. Departments will need to provide the coupon code to Indigo for confirmation.

Note: Guests must visit a pay station to validate the code and enter their license plate.  The Parking Indigo App is not set-up to use coupon codes. Please allow for 5 working days prior to event for the coupon code to be issued.

Coupon Code Instructions for Guests are available for your guests on how to enter the information into the parking meter.

If you have any questions, please email Facility@viu.ca for more information.
