By Popular Demand SpotHero Lands in San Francisco to Save Drivers

On-Demand Parking App SpotHero Tells San Francisco Drivers: Park Your Way, Anywhere

CHICAGO -- Dec. 15, 2014: Last week SpotHero announced that it will now make San Francisco drivers' lives easier with its on-demand parking app, available through iTunes or Google Play. Already an established industry leader with success helping drivers find parking in Chicago, New York, Washington D.C., Boston and other major U.S. cities, SpotHero brings relief to drivers by offering them the ability to park their cars their way, anywhere in San Francisco. Whether it's self-park or valet, drivers can reserve a spot in advance on SpotHero.com or with the app, then safely park their cars all day, all night, all weekend and save up to 50%.

"With almost half of the population of San Francisco driving to work everyday,* we saw a strong demand for SpotHero to reduce the pain of commuting," said Mark Lawrence, co-founder and CEO of SpotHero. "SpotHero offers drivers a sense of control over their parking experience by allowing them to quickly find a spot near their destination, see how much it costs, reserve and pay for it using their phone or the web. No more stress, no more circling the block and no more parking tickets."

With more than four years experience providing parking in convenient garages, lots and valets, SpotHero consistently guarantees that drivers have control over where their car is parked, how long it stays there, without long wait times, and a better rate. An added benefit of using SpotHero is that when drivers travel to one of the other 10+ cities where SpotHero operates, they can use the same reliable service that they do at home. Drivers also have access to SpotHero's 24 hour customer support via phone, email and social media.

SpotHero launched with 50+ parking facilities throughout San Francisco, including the Financial District, Chinatown, the Tenderloin, Nob Hill, Mid-Market, Civic Center and SOMA, with plans to offer over 100 locations within three months of launch. As in other cities, as more locations are added rates will continue to improve.
