Parking at Stanmore, is it best getting a day travel pass or get single tickets, I read somewhere that it's cheaper if you use contactless, is that correct?

That's what I've heard to about contactless and what I'll be doing.

Contactless to Wembley is £1.50 each way; tickets are £4.90. There is a daily cap on contactless as well if you are heading to central London .

If you are there early, the station car park is only £2 for the full day.

Thanks, what do you mean daily cap?

Already booked parking, paid £9 to park on someone's drive two minutes from the station, more expensive but makes it less stressful.

It means you won't pay more than about £9.40 if you are staying out of central London. Daily cap into central London is £11.40. If the fares go over, they refund the money.

If you use contactless do you need to register the card in advance?

... I don't think so, it's just like any other card transaction. I'm going to use it, so I hope I'm right.
