All questions
Frequently asked
Drivers
What is Parking Space?
A peer-to-peer parking app. People with an unused bay, driveway or garage list it, and drivers book it by the hour, day or month, in one tap.
Does the host have to accept my booking?
No. If the space is open for the whole time you choose, tapping Book holds it for you straight away.
How do I get past the barrier?
Every space says how: drive straight in, check in at security, plate registration, digital permit, key fob or permit. After booking you also get the host’s directions and the exact bay.
Why do I need to add my car?
Most buildings check plates. Your plate goes with the booking, and your car’s size makes sure you only see spaces it fits.
Can I park monthly?
Yes, where the host allows it. Monthly can be all week, weekdays, weekends or any three days. It renews until you or the host give notice, with a minimum of one month.
Can I cancel?
Yes, from the booking. The space opens up to other drivers and the host is told straight away.
Hosts
What can I list?
A tower bay, villa driveway, commercial bay, lock-up garage or open plot. One listing can hold several bays.
Am I allowed to let my bay?
That depends on your tenancy, title deed and building rules. Before publishing you confirm you are allowed. We don’t verify it, so check with your building first.
Do I have to be there when drivers arrive?
Not for most access methods. Drive-in, security desk, plate registration and digital permits work without you. Keys and permits need one handover, which suits monthly lets.
Can I choose when it is booked?
Yes. Always open, or set hours for each day. You can close single dates, open extra ones and set event prices on busy days.
Can drivers see my address?
Drivers see only the distance until they book. The exact location, bay and directions go to booked drivers only.
Prices and payments
How much does it cost?
The host sets the price. Drivers pay that plus a small service fee, shown on its own line before booking.
How much do hosts earn?
Exactly what they enter. The service fee is added for the driver, never taken from the host.
Is it free at the moment?
While payments are being set up, bookings are not charged. The app says so on every booking.
