Problem
Finding parking on game day is often time‑consuming, expensive, and stressful, with fans frequently ending up far from the stadium or dealing with blocked spots and limited amenities.
Solution
Perch operates a digital reservation platform that lets football fans pre‑select and pay for guaranteed parking spots near college stadiums. Users browse available lots, view details such as distance, price, and amenities (e.g., restrooms, tailgate space, lighting), and complete a one‑time payment for a single game or an entire season. After purchase, a digital parking pass is emailed and can be added to Apple Wallet for offline verification. The platform promises a guaranteed spot with a money‑back guarantee, 24/7 customer support, and a seamless arrival experience without the need to search for parking on the day of the event.
