Parking is a trust problem, not an aesthetics problem.
A permit doesn't guarantee a bay. A map pin doesn't guarantee a spot is real, paid, or charging-ready. We're building the layer that does - a reserved, paid, navigable space, every time. We don't sell aspiration. We sell relief.
Driver or host - start on either side.
A reserved, paid, navigable spot.
Four words. Everything we build exists to make them true on every booking.
Switzerland doesn't lack parking.
It lacks certainty.
Commuters pay CHF 200–960 a year for a permit and still circle the block with no guaranteed bay. EV owners rent flats where they can't charge at home. Meanwhile, private spots, permit bays and small lots sit idle for most of the day.
The supply and the demand already exist. What's missing is trust between two strangers and a barrier. That's the problem we solve - transparently, locally, and with charging built in.
Park and charge are one act.
Over half of Swiss drivers can't charge at home. So for us a spot and a charger aren't two products - they're one booking, at one transparent per-kWh price. No second app, no neighbour-billing headache.
Convictions we build on.
A handful of decisions shape everything we ship. Here's what we believe - stated plainly, so you can hold us to it.
Two demand shapes, one app
Structural and recurring (commuters, permits) and opportunistic (a free weekend spot) look different but share one need: a spot you can count on. We serve both from day one.
One transparent commission
We publish our host-side fee and never layer a hidden spread on top. Drivers pay 0% and one honest all-in price. Transparency isn't a feature - it's how we earn trust.
Park and charge as one act
For the EV owner who can't charge at home, a spot and a charger are the same booking, one per-kWh price. No second app, no neighbour-billing headache.
Built for the next booking
The first booking is just the introduction. Recurring commuters, season passes, top-up bonuses and trust between a repeat host and driver are where the lasting value lives.
Trust is the product
Escrow, the 100% refund guarantee, double-blind reviews and one-tap SOS aren't add-ons. Certainty between two strangers is the thing we actually sell.
Country and locale as a layer
Swiss-built and Swiss-first - TWINT, nFADP/GDPR, DE/FR/IT/EN. The product is one platform; the country is a configurable layer beneath it.
Made for Switzerland, not adapted to it.
Parkberry isn't a global app with a Swiss skin. The payments, the privacy posture, the languages and the rollout are shaped by the country first.
TWINT-first payments
Built around how Switzerland actually pays - TWINT, card or Wallet, with a top-up bonus that rewards loyalty, not friction.
nFADP & GDPR by design
Minimal plate data, encrypted at rest, privacy-by-design. We collect what a booking needs and nothing more.
Four languages, one product
DE, FR, IT and EN from launch - because a national platform can't be monolingual.
City by city
Zürich, then Geneva, then Lausanne, then Basel. Real liquidity in each before we move on.
How we work shows up in what we ship.
We're a small Swiss team that would rather under-promise and honor every spot than over-promise and break trust once.
Transparent by default
Published fees, no hidden spread, double-blind reviews. If we wouldn't say it to your face, we don't hide it in the fine print.
Relief over hype
We measure success by spots honored and minutes saved, not screens admired. Certainty is the feature.
Local and accountable
Swiss numbers for SOS, Swiss rules for privacy, Swiss payment rails. We're answerable to the people who use us.
Earn the next booking
Every spot honored is a vote for the next one. We build for the long relationship, not the one-off transaction.
Two sides. One reserved spot.
Whether you need a space you can count on or have an idle one to share, Parkberry was built to make the exchange certain. Start on either side - or reach out if you're press, a partner, or just want to follow the build.
