Overview
- Uber launched the new “Uber Parking” feature on Monday, November 9, offering in‑app search, upfront pricing, QR or license‑plate entry, and booking for drivers in 15 U.S. cities.
- The offering draws on SpotHero’s inventory of roughly 13,000 garages, lots and valet locations across 400+ cities after Uber acquired the company in February.
- Users can pay with their Uber Wallet balance including Uber Cash and credits, and Uber One members earn 10% back in account credits that can be used for rides or Uber Eats.
- Early rollout is uneven: some users see the parking tab immediately while others do not, and entry, cancellation, extension and fee rules vary by facility and operator.
- Uber describes a longer‑term plan to explore using participating parking facilities as staging and waiting areas for autonomous vehicle partners, but that operational use remains a developing strategy rather than an active program.
