Rent collection for car rental businesses
Stop chasing rent.
Start collecting it.
You rent cars out by the week. Wheelo signs your drivers up, takes the rent from their card every week, and shows you on one screen who has paid and who hasn't. The money goes straight into your own bank — it never passes through us.
No card needed to start · US$30/month after · no commission on your rent
you already trust.
Rental income doesn't vanish.
It leaks.
It is almost never one big loss. It is a week here, a fine there, and a driver who left owing three weeks that nobody wrote down. Four leaks account for most of it — and each one has a specific fix.
The week nobody chased
A driver misses a Monday. You mean to text them. By Friday it is two weeks, and a reminder has turned into an awkward conversation you would rather not have.
Two weeks = $720
What Wheelo does
Rent is charged automatically the day after each week ends, and the driver is emailed the day before it happens. Nobody has to remember, and you never have to ask.
The fine that quietly became yours
A notice turns up three weeks late for a car that three different drivers have had this month. Working out who was actually behind the wheel takes longer than the fine is worth, so you absorb it.
$275, and an hour of your evening
What Wheelo does
Type in the plate and the date and time printed on the notice. Wheelo works out who held that car at that exact minute and adds it to their next weekly bill, with the details attached.
The cash nobody wrote down
Two hundred dollars handed over at a petrol station on a Tuesday. Remembered by one of you, disputed by the other, and written down by neither.
$200, and the relationship
What Wheelo does
Record it against that week in one tap. The driver is emailed a confirmation with the amount and what is still left. Their card is then only ever charged the remainder — never the full week again.
The driver who left owing three weeks
A handshake, a photo of a signed page somewhere on your phone, and no way to prove what was agreed once they have gone.
$1,080, and no way to chase it
What Wheelo does
Every driver signs on their phone before they get the keys — time-stamped, with the exact wording frozen so it cannot be argued about later. Debt stays on the books after a rental ends; ending one is not a way to escape it.
What changes on Monday morning
Plugging the leaks is half of it. The other half is that the job itself gets smaller — the admin that used to take an evening takes a glance.

One set of numbers, three people
The owner, the driver and the accountant all look at the same ledger. Nobody has to keep a second one in their head.
If you own the cars
Rent arrives. Fines find the right driver.
- Weekly rent charged automatically, retried if it fails
- Cash and bank transfers recorded alongside card payments
- Fines and tolls matched to whoever had the car that minute
- Registration and insurance reminders, 30 and 7 days out
If you rent a car
No surprises. Ever.
- An email the day before any card charge
- Only what is still owing is ever taken
- Your own card — the owner sees the last four digits only
- Your signed agreement, readable any time
If you do the books
A ledger that never contradicts itself.
- Every payment, waiver and write-off on the record
- Written-off money never counted as collected money
- One currency per business, locked — no silent conversions
- CSV export of the lot
We never hold your money,
and we never take a cut of it.
Rent goes from your driver's card into your own Stripe account and out to your bank on your own payout schedule. Wheelo is never in the middle of it, takes no percentage of it, and never sees a card number — cards are entered on Stripe's own pages.
