Guide to renting on Getaround

On Getaround, there are two types of rentals:

Getaround Connect rentals: Unlock the car using your smartphone, without having to meet the owner. Get going in just a few minutes!

Meet owner rentals: Meet the owner of the car, who will check your documents and give you the keys directly.

First, you’ll need to create an account: it’s free and quick to set up. Fill in the necessary information such as your name, driving licence number, and date of issue.

Once your account is set up, you can rent a car in just a few steps:

1. Search for a car: Use your current location or enter an address or airport where you’ll need a car. You can also set filters for certain types of cars or features you need.

2. Verify your profile : we need to verify your profile before you can pick up the car. Find more details about profile verification here.

3. Select a car: Choose a mileage package, select a protection plan and a payment method, and pay. You're all set!

4. Pick up the car: Follow the instructions to access the car, and make sure to take all of the necessary photos during your inspection. Unlock the car with your phone and the keys will be inside.

5. Return the car: Drive the car back to the agreed location with the same level of fuel it had at the start. Leave the keys inside the car and lock the door with your phone.

6. Review the car and your trip: You’ll be able to leave a public review as well as send private feedback to the owner.
