Newly Developed AreaParking App Serves as the “AirBnB” for Cars

The App is a Creative New Way to Help Drivers Pay Less to Park While Allowing Homeowners to Rent Their Driveways for Extra Income

LOS ANGELES, CA / ACCESSWIRE / June 8, 2016 / Area Parking Inc., a Canadian-based company comprised of three entrepreneurs, recently announced the launch of its new app, AreaParking. The cheaper parking app, which is hailed as the AirBnB for cars, permits homeowners to make a business out of renting their parking spaces to drivers.

According to a New York Times study, about 30 percent of a city’s traffic is attributable to people hunting for parking. In New York City alone, drivers report searching for parking spots for an average of 20 minutes. Although major cities encourage using public transit, bikes, carpools, and other ways to avoid driving extra cars, the AreaParking app helps motorists find and pay for parking in most cities around the country.

With the AreaParking app, owners of private homes and condos can rent their unused parking spaces for a reasonable fee. If they plan ahead, drivers can book spaces at a reduced cost through the app as well. Although the team received an innovation grant and the app has already been approved on the App Store and Google Play, Area Parking Inc. is seeking the necessary funds to continue running a referral program that gives $100 to every user that refers five friends to the app.

At this time, Area Parking Inc. has taken its campaign to Kickstarter in order to raise the money. In exchange for donations, the Area Parking Inc. team is offering credits, t-shirts, and the opportunity to make suggestions to improve the app.

“Our referral program allows users to spread the word of our app and get rewarded for it,” said the team. “We wish to implement in a few countries one by one in a very strategic fashion.”
