What it is
A Bolt-ready car on rent-to-own: a fixed weekly amount for 36 months, then you can buy it for R5,000.
Who qualifies
An active (or approved) e-hailing profile, or proof you can earn R6,000+ a week.
What it costs
From R2 495 a week, all-in, with a deposit from R7 500.
How fast
A first answer in 60 seconds; most approved drivers collect in 2–5 working days.
Which car for which Bolt category
Bolt Lite and UberGo suit small, economical cars like the Suzuki S-Presso. Bolt and UberX suit the Toyota Vitz class. Bolt XL needs a 7-seater like the Suzuki Ertiga. Check the current requirements in your Bolt Driver app for your city.
Why drivers switch from renting
Drivers renting from fleet owners often pay R3,000+ a week with no end date. The car is never theirs and the owner can take it back at any time. With rent-to-own, every payment brings you closer to owning it.

We read every complaint about rent-to-own in South Africa: surprise fees, balloon payments, cars stuck at the workshop while the debit order keeps running. Then we wrote the opposite into our deal.
Every rand, upfront
Weekly amount, deposit, term, the price to buy it at the end, and where every rand goes: the vehicle, insurance, service, licence and our margin. Your price card is locked in writing for 7 days.
No balloon: a small, fixed buy price
At the end you can buy the vehicle for a fixed price written into your agreement on day one: R5,000 for a car, R500 for a bike. No R40,000 surprise.
Buy it early if you want
Had a good season? Ask for an early buy-out quote and own it before the term ends. Most rent-to-own deals make you sit out the full contract.
Unlimited km for drivers & riders
Drivers do 1,200 km a week. We don’t cap the kilometres you earn with.
Off the road? Your week is on us
If a repair takes more than 24 hours, you get a loan vehicle or that week is free. Never pay for a car or bike you can’t earn with.
Bad-week pause
Can’t pay one week? WhatsApp us that day. Once a year you can move one payment to the end of your term, no penalty, no fight.
Road-legal from day one
PrDP and operating-licence help for e-hailing, the right insurance cover, and the papers in your hands for every roadblock.
A real person on WhatsApp
One named account manager, a reply the same day, a reminder before every debit and a statement every month.

From “I need wheels” to keys in hand.
