Kerry County Council is planning to implement a cashless system for its parking meters.
The local authority is engaging with companies that specialise in such technology, with a view to tendering for a system over the coming weeks.
The council upgraded its traffic fines management system in 2019, and this is compatible with other cashless pay parking systems such as a smartphone app.
The details were revealed following a question from Cllr Mikey Sheehy at the recent Tralee Municipal District meeting.
