Yes, it’s free to park on motorway services in Portugal.
However, you’re best to pull off and go through the toll booth, turn around and get back onto the motorway just before the services you want to use. Same again in the morning, next toll booth after, obviously
There used to be a time limit on how long a toll ticket lasted, if you took more than 12 hours (or something like that) you paid an additional premium.
I don’t know if that’s still the case, I haven’t been to Portugal in over 15 years. Probably a bit late by now also, you’ll have found out one way or another by now.
Thanks, I did manage to find a services on the IC15 which was free and you could access both sides in the truck, there was a McDonald’s and a lidl there and also a shower.
