Who qualifies for a disability parking placard?
Each state writes its own rules, but the common threads are mobility and safety: difficulty walking a short distance without resting, using a wheelchair, walker, cane, or other aid, heart or lung conditions, portable oxygen, or severely limited vision. Our questionnaire walks you through the criteria that apply where you live, and every application is reviewed individually. We can never promise approval — but if your application isn't approved, you get a full refund.
How does the review process work?
You apply online in about five minutes — tell us your state, the placard you need, and what makes parking hard for you. From there, our team reviews your application and prepares the paperwork your state requires — no appointments, no phone calls, no waiting rooms. When it's ready, your completed permit package appears in your secure dashboard with instructions for submitting it to your state.
