About PARKetplace

PARKetplace is a people-powered parking platform that connects drivers with unused private spaces—driveways, yards, and more—right in their own communities.

Why We Exist

Have you ever circled a crowded beach or downtown core, stressed and late, while empty driveways sat steps away? That’s why we built PARKetplace. We make it easy to list or find private spots—no ads, no corporate middlemen.

For those who like to plan ahead—whether it's for a weekend getaway, business trip, concert, or medical appointment—you can search available spots by date and book in advance. No more last-minute stress or uncertainty—just peace of mind knowing your parking is already reserved.

Greener, Smarter Cities

Less circling means less traffic, less stress, and lower emissions. PARKetplace reduces wasted gas and makes better use of what’s already built.

Fair for Everyone

PARKetplace charges a small 20% service fee, but that doesn't all go to us. On an average $5 booking, Stripe takes about 2.9% + 30¢ ($0.445), leaving roughly $4.55. Of that, PARKetplace receives about 10%—just enough to keep the platform running and growing. The rest goes to the person offering the spot. We're here to support a fair and local economy, not gouge people.

Community Over Profit

We're proudly Canadian—built and hosted in Nova Scotia—and we're here to serve people, not exploit them. As we grow, PARKetplace will offer discounts or even free parking for hospital visits, students, and funerals. We believe in supporting people when it matters most.

We’re just a small, independent project—pretty much one man with a vision, basic skills, and a drive to make something better. Every bit of progress comes from learning, listening, and growing with your help.

We’re always open to feedback—whether it’s an issue you run into or an idea to improve. In the app, just tap on “Feedback” to share your thoughts. Or reach us at support@parketplace.ca.
