- Parking sites could later help house robotaxi fleets.

## Summary

Uber has launched Uber Parking, letting drivers find, reserve and pay for parking through its app. The move expands the company beyond rides and deliveries, while bringing parking into the same platform customers use for other travel services.

The feature draws on SpotHero’s network of more than 13,000 facilities in over 400 cities, with an initial launch in 15 US markets. Drivers can compare prices and arrival times, choose options such as valet or self-parking, and enter some facilities by QR code or number-plate recognition. Uber One members earn 10 per cent back as credits; Uber also says parking sites could eventually host robotaxis when they are not in use.
