How PrePark works

Reserve a guaranteed space near your event, or turn your unused parking into income. Here's how it works for parkers and hosts.

For parkers

Find and book a parking space in a few simple steps.

01

Search for a space

Search by city or town to see parking spaces nearby, with prices and walking distances.

02

Request to book

Pick your space and send a booking request. No payment is taken until the host accepts.

03

Host accepts

The host reviews your request and accepts or declines. You'll get an email as soon as they respond.

04

Pay securely

Once accepted, pay securely online within 24 hours to confirm your booking. Your space is then reserved.

05

Get directions

After payment you'll get your arrival and entry instructions and your booking details. For privacy, the exact address is released 24 hours before your booking (or straight away if you book within 24 hours) and emailed to you.

06

Arrive & check in

Press check-in when you arrive so the host knows you're there, and check-out when you leave.

07

Use & return the access item

If your space uses a key, fob or physical permit, follow the host's collection and return instructions so the next driver can use it too.

For hosts

List your space and start earning from event-day demand.

01

List your space

List a driveway, car park or piece of land in minutes. Set your own standard, weekend and event-day prices.

02

Get approved

Every new listing is reviewed by PrePark and approved before it goes live to customers.

03

Receive requests

Customers send booking requests for your space. Accept or decline each one from your host dashboard.

04

Get paid

When a customer pays, funds are routed to your connected Stripe account. You keep 100% of your price.

05

Manage access

Issue permits or keys, track check-ins, block dates you're unavailable, and follow each booking through to completion.

Built-in functionality

Everything you need to manage parking bookings end to end.

Host calendar view

See every booking on a month or week calendar, block dates you're unavailable, and tap a day for full booking details.

Booking requests

Customers request your space; accept or decline from your dashboard. Capacity updates automatically as requests come in.

Check-in & check-out

Customers check in and out with a tap, so you know exactly when they arrive and leave.

Customer calendar sync

Add a confirmed booking straight to your phone or laptop calendar (Apple, Google or Outlook) with one tap.

Permits & access items

Record permit, key and fob requirements with collection and return instructions, so drivers always know how to get in.

Secure payouts

Funds are routed straight to your connected Stripe account — you keep 100% of your listing price.

Admin oversight

PrePark reviews every new listing and handles refunds, access reports and disputes.

Live availability

Spaces free up automatically when requests expire or are cancelled, so you're never double-booked.

Secure payments

Every booking is paid for securely through our payment provider.

Hosts keep their price

A flat platform fee is added on top — you keep 100% of your listing price.

Permits & access items

Hosts record permit, key and fob requirements with clear instructions.
