How does the Day Rate work?

If you make an hourly booking, but the combined cost of the hours and kilometres is more expensive than the day rate, we will automatically upgrade your booking to the day rate, with 100km included for free.

Even if your booking is automatically upgraded to a day rate, you'll still need to return the vehicle by the original end time. If you need more time, you can easily extend your booking through the GoGet app. ⏱️📲

The cost of kilometres are calculated depending on whether your booking is charged at an hourly rate or a daily rate:

To see the cost breakdown of your booking, open your invoice and tap on the orange link that says: "How was this calculated?"

The "Time and Distance Charges" shows what the cost of the booking would have been if it was charged at an hourly rate.

For the example above, this $19.5/hour booking would have been $380.22 if it remained at the hourly rate.

The "Day Rate Upgrade" section calculates how much the discount will be when upgrading to a daily booking.

For the example above, the day rate is $133. The original cost of the booking is $380.22, this means the total discount for this booking is -$247.22

The final "Trip Total" is the cost of the entire booking. It includes the total for the Time and Distance Charges, the Day Rate Upgrade discount, as well any other charges (Reduced Damage Cover in this example) and any tolls.
