Yenda puts you in touch with the person who owns the car. Below is how a hire works end to end, what the cover includes, and where we differ from a walk-in rental branch.
Filter by city, dates and category. Every listing is reviewed by our team before it goes live.
Each car carries a live calendar. Booked and blocked days are greyed out, so what you see is bookable.
The owner approves your request, then you agree on a collection point or delivery.
Renters and hosts pass ID and selfie checks before any money moves. Hosts add registration and insurance per vehicle.
Daily rate, weekend surcharge, cleaning, service fee and tax are itemised before you pay. No counter upsells.
Cancel more than 3 days out for a full refund, or inside 3 days for 50%. The calendar frees up instantly.
Pickups, family vans, compact runarounds and executive saloons, each kept by its own owner.
Open Browse, set your location, dates and category, and shortlist the vehicles that fit your trip.
First time only. Upload a government ID and take a live selfie — most checks clear in minutes.
On the car page, choose a start and end date in the availability calendar. Unavailable days can't be selected.
See the full breakdown — nightly rate, discounts for weekly or monthly trips, fees and tax — before you commit.
Checkout is handled by our payment processor. Your booking is held while payment confirms.
Use the trip page thread to settle the time and place with the owner, then collect the keys.
Every confirmed Yenda trip is backed by a protection plan. Cover starts at pickup and ends when the car is returned.
Every confirmed trip includes liability cover for injury or damage to other people and their property.
Flat tyre, dead battery, lockout or tow — help is a call away for the whole duration of the trip.
Choose the level of deductible that suits you at checkout. Lower deductible, slightly higher daily cost.
Photos at pickup and dropoff sit on the trip record, so damage disputes are settled with evidence, not memory.
Protection plans are provided through our insurance partners and are subject to the plan terms shown at checkout. They are not a personal insurance policy, and exclusions apply — read the plan details before you book.
