Uber has integrated parking reservations and payments directly into its core mobile application following its acquisition of SpotHero.
The feature allows users to query availability, manage bookings, and access locations via digital codes or license plate recognition.
Where is the new service available?
The feature is located on the app’s home screen and is initially available in 15 cities across the United States, including New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, San Francisco, Boston and Atlanta. Drivers can enter a destination, date and time, filter results and see prices in advance.
Access to the parking lot is by scanning a unique code from your mobile phone or through license plate recognition. Reservations can be canceled free of charge up until the starting time.
The connection with SpotHero and the privileges
The company leverages the network of 13.000 garages, outdoor spaces and valet services in over 400 cities that it acquired through SpotHero, the acquisition of which was announced in February.
