CurbStand is a mobile app that allows people to find, pay for and also tip valet parkers. CurbStand was founded in 2013 by Owen De Vries, Nicole Duncan, and Moncef Abbou. Curbstand is based out of Los Angeles, California and its app is currently available at valet stands in Los Angeles, Dallas, Miami, Austin, Houston, Fort Lauderdale, Boston, and Denver.

Overview
Users use the CurbStand app to find their CurbStand valet and grab their ticket from an attendant, find their location on the app’s interactive map, check-in with their ticket number, and pay and tip for the valet parking service without having to use cash. The app also includes a “Request My Car” feature, which allows users to have their valet driver summon their car for them ahead of time. After users give their valet attendant their ticket, they are free to go.

In September 2014, CurbStand completed a $3 million funding round, after which the company hired a new CFO and CTO to help with its growth. In early 2015, CurbStand acquired competitor Curby for an undisclosed mix of stock and cash.
