What are the fees?

DRIVESHARE charges service fees for each rental booked through driveshare.com. The fees for each are listed below. 

Automatically Applied to Every Rental Period: 
Renter Service Fee
10% service fee will be charged to the vehicle renter for each rental booked. 

Booking Fee: Individual Owners
DRIVESHARE takes 20% of each reservation. This fee covers the cost of payment processing, listing and availability management, and support services provided by DRIVESHARE to both the owner and renter during the rental period.

Other Possible Fees: 

Insurance Fee:

When a renter books a driving rental, they will have the choice of three coverage options to choose from for their rental. The insurance fee will be added to the total price for the rental. When an owner accepts an Chauffeur/Event rental, they can either provide their own insurance or opt into the DRIVESHARE coverage option, of which the fee will be deducted from the owner's share of the rental.

Administrative Fees
A fee of $25 will be charged for any administrative event such as neglecting to pay for a parking or speeding ticket during a rental period. The at-fault user incurs the charge.

Late Fees
Returning a car late can really inconvenience the car owner. There is a 15-minute grace period with each rental. If a renter returns a car late, without notifying and communicating with the owner or DRIVESHARE, they will be charged the hourly rate of that vehicle along with a $50 late fee for each hour the vehicle is late, up to $500. DRIVESHARE commission will be charged on both the late fee and the hourly rate. These charges will be added in addition to the agreed upon rental rate between the owner and renter.

Excess Mileage Fee
Renters will be charged for all excess mileage as designated per vehicle along with a $25 administrative fee.

Gas Fee
If the car is returned with less than the amount of gas as at the start of the rental, the renter will be charged $6 per gallon of missing gas along with a $25 administrative fee.

Citation & Tolls Fee
In the event that a renter fails to pay for a parking ticket, speeding ticket, toll or other citation that occurs during or subsequent to a rental, a fee equal to the highest amount on the citation will be charged to the renter along with a $25 administrative fee.

Cleaning Fee
We understand that cars get dirty out on the road. If the car is returned and is deemed to require additional cleaning due to smoke, pets, excessive trash, sand, neglect, etc., a cleaning fee of up to $350 may be imposed along with a $25 administrative fee.
