ParkMobile is a U.S. mobile parking app, founded in 2008, that lets drivers search for, pay for, and reserve parking from their phone instead of using a physical meter or kiosk. Drivers select a parking zone or garage, enter their vehicle and payment details, and start or extend a session directly in the app; for events, airports, and campuses, ParkMobile also offers advance reservations booked through a simple find-reserve-arrive flow. Beyond individual drivers, ParkMobile serves businesses that need to manage fleet vehicles and parking expenses through a dedicated business portal with usage reporting, and it partners with municipalities, event venues, airports, and college campuses as the underlying parking-payment and reservation infrastructure. The company says it is used by more than 50 million people and operates in 8 of the top 10 U.S. cities.
Key Features
Zone parking payment — Pay for on-street and garage parking directly from your phone by entering a zone number, vehicle, and payment details, without walking back to a meter.
Remote session extension — Extend an active parking session remotely from the app instead of returning to the vehicle or meter.
Advance parking reservations — Search by destination, date, or event; reserve a specific spot instantly; then scan a QR code to enter -- built for events, airports, and campuses.
Business fleet portal — A dedicated portal for companies to register vehicles and users, track parking expenses, and pull monthly usage reports across a fleet.
Parking provider infrastructure — Used by municipalities, event venues, airports, and college campuses as the underlying payment and reservation system for their own parking programs.
