Dubai: Parked at a spot in Dubai and in need of an urgent fuel refill?

Now, drivers can call in help from Cafu's through Parkin's platform to get that fuel on demand.

"Parkin customers will be able to request fuel delivery or a car wash by clicking on the link sent through SMS/WhatsApp," said a statement. "And in the near future, directly through Parkin’s mobile app." (Existing Cafu users may continue to access the services via the Cafu app.)

The moment the fuel-on-demand comes to the Parkin app, that will be decisive. It means parkin takes another step to be the super-app for allied services related to mobility, over and above the core function of paying for a parking spot in Dubai.

"By offering on-demand fuel delivery and car wash services, delivered directly to vehicles parked in our spaces, we are turning idle parking time into a moment of convenience," said Mohamed Abdulla Al Ali, CEO of Parkin.

For Cafu, it means closer integration with the biggest parking service operator in Dubai.
