Kerb says drivers can pre-book parking ahead of time without needing to use a car park payment machine. Sessions are available from five to 72 hours.

The app allows churches and schools to use their car park to fundraise while also helping residential committees manage the allocation of parking spaces in apartment buildings, the company adds.

It is free to download on iOS and Android devices.
