About JustPark

JustPark, established in 2006, is the UK’s favourite parking app, parking a car every 2 seconds and processing £100m+ of parking income for our partners each year. With 13 million drivers and more than 250,000 spaces, we’re proud to work with some of the UK’s biggest Local Authorities, hotel chains and car park operators. JustPark markets and monetises both unused residential driveways and under-utilised car park capacity, benefiting drivers and creating revenue for space owners. 

Uniquely in the industry, we focus on both the driver and the operator experience to make parking better for all stakeholders. In addition to working with traditional parking real-estate,  we also work with 10,000s of independent landlords and small businesses. We pride ourselves in our ability to provide exceptional service, a smooth onboarding process and being on the cutting edge of innovation.
