Verificationย
The quickest way to sign up and get verified is via our mobile apps. Watch the short video to see how ๐
For security, we will run our verification checks to confirm that you are who you say you are and live where you say you live so it is important to register with your most up to date details. If you do not, then you will fail these checks and that will stop you from being able to book a car.ย
