Meet up
You see live how far apart you are. When you arrive, they pull out and you park.
Leaving soon? Pass your spot on.
Say where you’re parked and what time you’re leaving. Every spot you share helps another driver park nearby instead of circling.
And if driving all the way isn’t worth it?
Routes compares car, public transport and park & ride for the same destination: you leave the car at a car park next to a stop and carry on by metro or bus.

- Reliability you can see
- Every driver has a reliability score: how often they showed up and left on time.
- Messages inside the app
- If plans change, you message the other driver without sharing your phone number.
- People handle disputes
- If something goes wrong, a person from our team looks at it, not an automated system.
Before you start.
What does it cost?
ParkHugs is free during the pilot. We don’t ask for payment details.
Which cities does it work in?
The pilot runs in Thessaloniki and Athens. The app also works in Larisa.
What if the other driver doesn’t show up?
You report it in the app and a person from our team looks at it. Drivers who don’t show up lose reliability, and the next drivers see that.
Do I have to give my phone number?
No. You sign up with your email and talk to the other driver inside the app.
