The e-voucher option is not yet available for Hackney estates. We are hoping to be able to offer e-vouchers to our estate residents soon.

Log into your Hackney parking account if you have purchased scratchcard vouchers, the vouchers will be showing in a grey box on the first screen.

To check if you have e-vouchers, click on the ‘My e-vouchers’ tab near the top of the page, this takes you to your e-wallet.

If you have purchased e-vouchers you will be able to see your available e-vouchers in your ‘E-voucher wallet’ in the grey box at the top of the page.

You can apply for a refund for a full e-book of e-vouchers and place an order for a book of physical scratchcard vouchers.

We are unable to offer partial refunds so if any of the e-vouchers in an e-book have been used we are unable to refund.
