Pickup
You can reserve a rental vehicle in the ‘Vehicles’ tab of your Driver Dashboard. Scroll to the ‘Express Drive’ section, then follow the prompts.
Once you pass the DMV and background checks, you'll be able to schedule a pickup.
If you’re a returning renter, you’ll be able to schedule a rental in advance while waiting for any required DMV and background checks. Please note: If your DMV and background checks are not finished running prior to the appointment, the pickup will be canceled.
If you're not a Lyft driver yet:
  1. Visit lyft.com/expressdrive.
  2. Verify your phone number.
  3. Select 'Rent with Express Drive' to begin your application.
What to bring
When you pick up your rental vehicle, bring your:
  1. Driver’s license.
  2. Credit/debit card listed in your name.
  3. Phone with the Lyft Driver app installed.
Your costs
You’ll pay a refundable deposit to rent a vehicle through Express Drive. You won’t pay for any other costs upfront when you pick up the vehicle.
Your earnings as a Lyft driver will cover your rental costs. If your earnings don’t cover your rental costs during the Lyft billing week (which starts Monday 5 AM), we’ll charge your default card on file for any remaining amounts the following Tuesday.
Any unpaid rental charges will carry over each week until they’re repaid. Earnings must cover your total outstanding rental costs before you can receive a payout.
After those rental costs are covered, we transfer the rest of your earnings to your bank account.
Credit and debit cards are the only accepted card types for the rental deposit and as your default payment method for Express Drive.
Your billing history shows a full summary of your rental costs for the past billing week. To view your bills and card charges:
  1. Open the Lyft Driver app main menu, then tap ‘Account.’
  2. Tap ‘Pay & Tax Info.’
  3. Tap ‘Express Drive billing history.’
我们不接受以下作为您的默认支付方式：
  1. 预付卡
  2. Commuter cards
  3. Apple Pay
  4. Google Pay
  5. Venmo
  6. Cash App
  7. Paypal
When you return your vehicle, you’ll receive a full refund of your deposit within 3 weeks as long as rental-related fees, damages, and tolls have been covered.

  2. Your email settings: Make sure there aren’t any blocks on Lyft email addresses.
  3. Your spam and junk folders: Our emails sometimes get lost in these folders.
Cancelling or rescheduling your appointment
You can reschedule or cancel your rental reservation from the ‘Your Vehicles’ tab of the Lyft Driver app. Note: If you cancel your appointment, you’ll have to restart the reservation process.
Vehicle availability
Vehicles are reserved on a first-come, first-served basis, depending on their availability.
If no vehicles are available when you try to schedule your appointment, you're still approved to rent with Express Drive.
Check the ‘Your Vehicles’ tab daily to see when vehicles become available. We update pickup dates for new appointments every night at midnight.
Hertz renters only: Right now, there's no way to join a waitlist or get notified when more vehicles are available. Keep checking the ‘Your Vehicles’ tab for availability updates. Flexdrive renters only: To join a waitlist, tap ‘Notify me.’ You’ll get an email when a vehicle becomes available.
Make and model availability
The type of vehicle you get depends on availability at each rental location. We can’t guarantee a specific vehicle will be available before pickup.
Based on your city, electric vehicles, SUVs, and hybrids may be available.
Renew
Your rental will automatically renew for 7 days each week as long as you:
  1. Earn enough to cover weekly rental costs.
  2. Complete required maintenance on time.
  3. Have a valid payment method on file.
  4. Don’t have any outstanding charges from the previous week.
You can find the status of your renewal in the Driver app or Express Drive dashboard.  We'll send you a text and email to notify you that your rental has automatically been renewed.
Required maintenance
Rental vehicles require routine maintenance. We’ll send you a text and email to let you know when maintenance is due.
If you rent from Hertz, you’ll be asked to create an account with the Hertz Maintenance Portal. Once created, you’ll receive texts and emails when maintenance is due.
Your weekly auto-renew may fail if you don’t get routine maintenance.Your rental provider will pay for routine maintenance.
Ride requirements
您需要每周完成至少 20-40 次行程才能续租 Flexdrive 或 Hertz 的车辆。最低行程次数要求取决于您的租车地区。
You can track your progress toward the minimum ride requirement on the Driver app's home screen.
您第一周的最低行程数是按比例计算的。这意味着根据您领取租赁车辆的日期，您可能不需要在第一周完成所有20-40次行程。
If you're unable to meet the ride requirements, return the rental vehicle to the location you picked it up from.
