Best for ParkHub

A fair comparison starts by acknowledging where the other vendor is the right call. ParkHub is a real product with a real fit. These are the buyer profiles who should probably stick with ParkHub (or pick it new), not replace it with Park Graph.

  • Stadiums with big event-day crowds

    Mercedes-Benz Stadium announced its ParkHub partnership on February 10, 2025.

  • Venues that sell parking with tickets

    AEG's 2023 partnership links ParkHub with AXS ticketing and prepaid parking.

  • Teams that want handheld terminals

    Prime handheld point-of-sale terminals let attendants sell parking on the spot.

Best for Park Graph

And these are the buyer profiles where Park Graph is the better fit — the cases where the operating shape, the cost model, or the AI-agent surface tilt the comparison toward operator-side software.

  • Lots that earn every day, not only on event days

    Park Graph takes payment every day. Event pricing and surge pricing on Pro and Enterprise cover the busy nights.

  • Owners who do not want devices to manage

    There are no handhelds to charge, count or replace. A printed QR sign does the selling.

  • Owners who want to start today

    Sign up, add your lot and set your rates. Print the QR sign on any printer and post it. There is no hardware and no install visit. A lot can be live the same day.

  • Owners who want $0 a month

    Starter has no monthly fee, no setup fee and no contract. You pay 10% per payment (minimum $0.75), and less on Pro (5%) or Enterprise (3.3%).

  • Drivers who do not want another app

    They scan the sign, pay in the browser with Apple Pay, Google Pay or a card, and go. Scan to paid takes under 30 seconds.

  • Owners who want AI assistants to find their lot

    Every plan makes your lot findable through the public API and MCP server. On Pro and Enterprise, Claude and ChatGPT can book and pay for a space.

  • Developers who want to start now

    The API docs are public at /developers. Pro and Enterprise owners get API keys and webhooks with their plan.

Feature matrix

A row-by-row look at how the two products handle the things operators actually have to deliver — the driver flow, the operator dashboard, the API surface, the brand on the receipt. Where ParkHub's row reads “not publicly documented” or “partner-only,” we checked their public site on the date noted in the Sources section.

Pricing model — qualitative comparison

ParkHub's prices are not in the sources we checked.

Park Graph publishes every price. Starter is $0 a month and 10% per payment, with a $0.75 minimum. Pro is $499/mo and 5%. Enterprise is $4,950/mo and 3.3%. Stripe's card processing fee applies on top. Starter has no setup fee, no hardware and no contract.

On event nights you raise the rate with event or surge pricing on Pro and Enterprise. Park Graph's fee percentage stays the same.

ParkHub's fees are not in the sources we checked, so this page quotes none. Park Graph's pricing is published at /pricing.

Deployment, hardware, and time to launch

An event operation runs on people and devices. Attendants use Prime handheld terminals to sell parking at the lot, and drivers can buy prepaid passes ahead.

Sign up, add your lot and set your rates. Print the QR sign on any printer and post it. There is no hardware and no install visit. A lot can be live the same day.

The same printed sign works on event day and every other day.

The single biggest practical difference between Park Graph and ParkHub on most lots is how long it takes to accept the first paid session. Print, post, and accept payments — same day — is a different shape of operating motion than a procurement, install, or marketplace listing review.

AI-agent readiness, public API, and MCP

ParkHub offers an API to customers by request. Its docs describe sandbox credentials first, then a certification call, then production credentials. Each credential step can take up to two weeks.

JustPark, which ParkHub combined with in 2024, runs an MCP server for UK parking search.

Park Graph runs a public MCP server and ChatGPT Actions. On every plan, assistants such as Claude and ChatGPT can find your lot through the public API. On Pro and Enterprise, they can also book and pay for a space at the rate you set. API keys and webhooks come with Pro and Enterprise, so your own systems see each booking.

AI-agent commerce moved from theory to a real distribution channel in 2025 and 2026. Drivers ask ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and Perplexity to find and pay for parking at the destination they are headed to, and assistants that speak Model Context Protocol can complete that transaction inside the chat. Park Graph publishes a public MCP server and ChatGPT Actions manifest so any lot in the network is reachable to those assistants. See our MCP server and ChatGPT Actions docs for the full surface.

The agent surface drivers reach through ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and Perplexity — published as MCP plus ChatGPT Actions.

QR-payment comparison

ParkHub sells prepaid passes and takes payment on handheld terminals on event day.

Park Graph needs no attendant to take a payment. Drivers scan the sign at your lot. They pick a time and pay in the browser with Apple Pay, Google Pay or a card. No app and no account. Scan to paid takes under 30 seconds, and the receipt names your lot.

A working QR-pay flow is now table stakes for any operator who wants to capture walk-up demand. The right comparison question is not “does the vendor support QR” (most do at this point) — it is “is QR the default driver flow with no app install required, or is it an add-on to the primary flow?” That distinction shows up directly in driver conversion at the lot.

Park Graph QR-payment flow versus ParkHub: a driver scans a printed lot code, picks a duration, pays with Apple Pay or card, and receives a digital pass in under thirty seconds with no app install
Scan-to-paid in under thirty seconds, no app install — the default driver flow, not an add-on.

Migration path

Venues on ParkHub can keep it for event day. Park Graph fits the days in between and the lots nearby.

Step 1: sign up for Park Graph Starter. Step 2: add the lot and set your everyday rates. Step 3: print and post the QR sign. Step 4: on Pro, add event pricing for game nights and compare results after thirty days.

Most operators run both products side by side for thirty days before making a per-lot decision. The cost of running both is small (a printed sign and a free Starter plan on the Park Graph side); the cost of switching prematurely on a single hunch is much larger. We are happy to help design that thirty-day comparison — see our contact page.
