How to add value to a Flex Gated parking permit
This document explains how to use the eBusiness parking portal to add value to a Flex Gated parking permit. Flex Gated permit holders must have parking value on their permit before arriving on campus to park.
- Go to transportation.wisc.edu/ebusiness. Click the LOGIN link in the upper-right corner of the page.
- Click the Employee or Student Login button. You will be directed to a log-in page. Enter your UW-Madison NetID or UW Health login ID and multi-factor authentication.
- After logging in, you will be returned to the parking portal main page. Click the View Your Permits link.
- Click on your active Flex permit number.
- On the “Your Permit Details” page, scroll to the buttons near the bottom of the page and select Add Value.
- Read the note for Flex Gated customers and scroll down to begin adding value.
Please note: the Flex parking rate is a 20% discount on daily visitor parking rates. The discount is taken upfront when value is added to the permit: it is not taken for each individual parking session. For example, adding $50 of value costs $40. - Near the bottom of the page, go to the “Additional Value to Add” drop-down menu. (In the example on this page, $50.00 was selected to add $50 of value to the permit.) The 20% discount on the daily visitor parking rate will be reflected in the “Cost For Value Added” field as $0.80. The discounted amount you pay is listed in the “Total Additional Cost” field, in this example $40.00.
When ready to proceed, click the “Next” button. - Select a payment method from the drop-down menu. Click the Proceed to Checkout button to begin the checkout process.
- Confirm your order details and click the “Checkout” button to continue.
- You will be directed to the Transact Payments portal to securely enter your payment information and complete the transaction.
- After completing the transaction, you will receive a confirmation email and be redirected back to the eBusiness portal.
