'''Coupon parking''', also known as ''parking vouchers'', is a variation of pay and display without the use of machines; instead, the motorist purchases a booklet of coupons in advance from the authorities. To use a parking coupon, the motorist has to completely tear off tabs of the date and time, or scratch off panels on the date and time in which he/she leaves the vehicle.  This process is similar to [[disc parking]], except that a parking disc is reusable whereas a coupon can only be used once. In the [[Republic of Ireland]], reusable free-parking discs are unknown and parking coupons are called "parking discs".<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.ombudsman.gov.ie/en/AboutUs/InformationforSchools/YouaretheOmbudsmanHowwouldyoudecide/|title=You are the Ombudsman!

Multiple coupons are used if the parking time exceeds the allowance given for a single coupon, though this is not always permitted.  The system is widely used in [[Singapore]] and [[Brazil]], and in parts of some countries such as [[New Zealand]], [[Malaysia]], [[Austria]], [[Ireland]] and [[Israel]].
