Aparca&Go

What Aparca&Go does

Aparca&Go (legal entity: Aparca & Go S.L.) is a Spanish private company that operates long-stay parking facilities and ancillary vehicle services at the country's largest transportation hubs. Founded in 2009 and headquartered in Sant Boi de Llobregat (Barcelona), the company runs six operational locations spanning Barcelona El Prat Airport (Terminals T1 and T2), Barcelona Sants station, Madrid Barajas Airport (T1, T2/T3, T4), Madrid Atocha, Madrid Chamartín, and the Barcelona Cruise Port, with more than 2,800 monitored parking spaces and an 11-vehicle shuttle fleet.

The product architecture is a service-plus-attachments model: customers reserve parking as the primary transaction, choosing between aparca&go Express (self-park with on-demand shuttle delivering passengers to the terminal in approximately five minutes) and aparca&go Premium (valet collection at the terminal). On top of parking, the company bolts on three vehicle service modules—Car Service (maintenance and repairs), ITV (mandatory vehicle technical inspection coordination), and Lavados (car wash)—executed through partner workshops and ITV stations. Distribution is digital-first: self-serve online booking via aparcandgo.com (available in Spanish, Catalan, English, and French) and native iOS/Android apps that carry a 6% booking discount, complemented by a B2B agency portal for travel resellers and a Benefits loyalty program (three tiers, up to 10% discount).

The revenue model is primarily transactional, anchored by per-24-hour parking fees (Express from EUR 8.90/day, Premium from EUR 29.95/day) with dynamic pricing that decreases materially after the second day. Average yields are lifted by Premium mix, ancillary service attach (ITV at EUR 125, vehicle maintenance on fixed-price quotes, wash services), and travel-agency channel volume. Pricing positions the company up to 70% below official AENA airport parking, which is the central commercial lever. Operations run 24/7/365 with no disclosed external funding; the company appears bootstrapped and privately held by founders/operators.

Core offering

Aparca&Go operates long-stay parking facilities at major Spanish airports and train stations, offering self-park with shuttle transfer (Express), terminal valet service (Premium), and ancillary vehicle services including mechanical maintenance, ITV technical inspection, and car wash that customers can add to their parking booking to be performed during travel. The company owns and operates facilities with 2,800+ monitored parking spaces at six locations across Barcelona and Madrid.

Product overview

Aparca&Go is a traditional parking and vehicle services company operating across major Spanish transportation hubs (airports and train stations in Barcelona and Madrid). The portfolio consists of three core parking service tiers: standard Parking with 24x7 surveillance, Express (shuttle-based transfer to terminals), and Premium (valet service with agent meet-and-greet at terminals). Three add-on service modules can be combined with parking bookings: Car Service (mechanical maintenance and repairs), ITV (vehicle technical inspection), and Lavados (car washing/detailing). The company operates its own facilities with over 2,800 parking spaces and owns the vehicles on its lots through its services. A loyalty program (Benefits) and a mobile application for iOS and Android complement the offering. The architecture is a service-plus-attachments model where customers book parking as the primary product and optionally attach maintenance, inspection, or cleaning services to be performed during their trip.

Broad incumbents

• Holiday Extras: Established UK travel-ancillary platform offering airport parking, hotels, and transfers bundled with flights. Wider portfolio than Aparca&Go but directly comparable on the airport long-stay parking product and B2B travel-agency distribution.
• Booking.com (Airport Parking by Park & Fly partners): Global travel platform aggregating airport parking inventory including Spanish hubs. While a much broader platform, its parking product competes for the same travelers and benefits from cross-traffic Aparca&Go cannot easily match.
• AENA (Parking Division): State-backed operator of Spain's airports and the dominant on-airport parking provider. Competes directly with Aparca&Go's core offering while also controlling access to airport land and infrastructure — both competitor and de facto landlord.

Direct peers

• TravelCar: European airport parking marketplace with French roots, offering free/low-cost airport parking by monetizing vehicles during stay. Comparable airport long-stay parking model and European footprint, with adjacent value-added services during the parking period.
• Parkos: European airport parking comparison/booking platform covering major airports including Madrid and Barcelona. Compares and books off-airport parking with transfer — same value proposition (cheaper than on-airport), same digital PLG motion.
• Parclick: Barcelona-headquartered online aggregator of airport and city parking across Europe. Directly comparable business model: book parking near airports (including Madrid and Barcelona) with shuttle/valet options, digital-first booking, ancillary services. Most direct Spanish competitor.
• ElParking: Spanish digital parking platform offering online reservation at airports, train stations and city parking. Same self-serve online GTM, same Spanish geography, same airport/train station use case — overlapping customer base and product.
• ParkVia: European airport parking reservation platform serving Spain, France, and other markets. Comparable digital-first booking model, comparable ancillary add-ons, similar airport long-stay positioning.

Others

• Uber / Cabify (last-mile alternative): Rideshare platforms serving Barcelona and Madrid airports. Not a direct parking competitor but the most relevant last-mile substitute that could erode the structural demand for parked personal vehicles during travel.

Regional players

• Purple Parking: UK-focused airport parking operator with meet-and-greet and shuttle services. Same product architecture (Express shuttle + Premium valet) and ancillary-service ethos, but operates exclusively in the UK market.
