How it works

A simple path from enquiry to ownership

No interest, no lock-in and less stringent conditions than traditional providers. Here’s what to expect.

The process

Six steps to your own car

  1. Step 01

    Get in touch

    Call, WhatsApp or send us a message with the vehicle you have in mind — or ask us to recommend one.

  2. Step 02

    Choose your vehicle

    We source from our fleet, freshly imported Japanese vehicles or local dealers. Brand new is possible too.

  3. Step 03

    Inspect & agree terms

    Inspect the car to your satisfaction, then agree your deposit (30%+) and a term of up to 36 months.

  4. Step 04

    Register & set up

    Register free on the Commuti portal, arrange insurance and roadside assistance, and set up weekly direct debit.

  5. Step 05

    Drive & earn

    Hit the road. Settle early at any time with an early payment quote — no lock-in.

  6. Step 06

    Own it for $1

    Complete the contract and ownership is transferred to you for $1.

Rent to own vs. renting

Invest towards ownership, not ongoing rent

Rent to own is ideal if you don’t have the upfront resources to buy a vehicle but would rather invest towards ownership than pay ongoing rent.

While the total rent-to-own cost is usually higher than the original vehicle price, the income you earn through rideshare driving often offsets much of this cost. At the end of the contract you have a fully owned vehicle — an asset you can keep or sell to recoup part of your investment.
