Default Rental Agreement
Select which rental agreement template is automatically attached to all Pocket Drives bookings. Only agreements of type "rental" appear in this dropdown.
If no agreements exist yet, you'll see a warning with a link to create one in Settings → Agreement Templates.
Delivery Settings
Configure how far you're willing to deliver and what you charge:
Default Delivery Address
Your home base for deliveries — typically your garage or main lot. This is the same as your porter address. Start typing and select from Google Places autocomplete.
Free Delivery Radius
Deliveries within this distance from your default address are free for the renter. Default: 25 miles.
Fee Per Mile (Beyond Radius)
For deliveries beyond the free radius, this per-mile fee is charged. Default: $2.00/mile. Example: If your free radius is 25 miles and a renter is 40 miles away, they'd be charged 15 miles × $2 = $30 delivery fee.
Maximum Delivery Distance
The farthest you're willing to deliver. Renters beyond this distance cannot book delivery. Default: 100 miles.
Important: After changing delivery settings, click Save Delivery Settings — these fields do NOT auto-save.
Airport Delivery Fees
Set flat one-way delivery fees for specific airports. Airport fees replace the per-mile fee when a renter selects that airport as their pickup or dropoff location.
How Airport Fees Work
- Each fee is one-way — if a renter books pickup at one airport and dropoff at another, both airport fees apply
- Airport fees override the per-mile calculation for that location
- You can enable/disable individual airports without removing them
Adding an Airport
- Type in the airport search field (search by name, city, or IATA code)
- Select the airport from the dropdown results
- In the modal, set the delivery fee amount
- The airport appears in your fee table
Airport types are labeled: Commercial (large), Regional (medium), Private/Small, Heliport, and Seaplane.
Managing Airport Fees
For each airport in your table:
- Edit the fee — click the fee amount and change it (saves on blur)
- Enable/Disable — toggle the status switch
- Remove — click the trash icon to delete
Venue Delivery Fees (Stadiums, Arenas & Golf Courses)
Set flat one-way delivery fees for professional sports venues. Like airport fees, venue fees replace the per-mile fee when a renter selects that venue.
Supported Venue Types
Stadiums, arenas, golf courses, fields, ballparks, and raceways across all major leagues: NFL, NBA, NHL, MLS, MLB, NCAA Football, NCAA Basketball, PGA, LPGA, Champions Tour, NASCAR, IndyCar, NWSL, and WNBA.
Adding a Venue
- Type in the venue search field (search by venue name, team name, city, or league)
- Select the venue from the dropdown
- Set the delivery fee in the modal
Managing Venue Fees
Same controls as airports: edit fee inline, toggle enabled/disabled, or remove.
Automatic Verifications
Pocket Drives enforces three mandatory verifications on every rental — these cannot be turned off:
| Verification | What It Requires | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Identity Verification | Renters must verify their identity with a valid driver's license via Stripe Identity | Always On |
| Insurance Verification | Renters must provide proof of active auto insurance coverage via Axle | Always On |
| Payment Hold | A security deposit is held on the renter's card for the duration of the rental | Always On |
Insurance Requirements (Bonzah)
If Bonzah Insurance is enabled for your organization, per-vehicle coverage requirements can be configured on each vehicle's detail page. Available coverages:
- CDW — Collision Damage Waiver (covers damage to the rental vehicle up to $35,000)
- RCLI — Renter's Contingent Liability (covers third-party bodily injury and property damage)
- SLI — Supplemental Liability (excess coverage on top of RCLI)
- PAI — Personal Accident Insurance (covers life, medical expenses, and personal effects)
If Bonzah is not yet enabled, click Enable Bonzah in Insurance Settings to configure it on the Insurance tab.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do airport/venue fees apply in both directions?
Each fee is one-way. If a renter picks up at an airport ($75 fee) and returns at a different airport ($50 fee), both fees apply ($125 total delivery fees).
What if a renter is within my free radius but picks an airport?
The airport flat fee overrides the per-mile calculation. Even if the airport is 5 miles away (within your free radius), the airport's flat fee applies.
Can I disable Pocket Drives temporarily?
Yes. Toggle the status switch to Disabled. Your vehicles will be hidden from the marketplace. Toggle it back on when you're ready. Existing bookings are not affected.
Why can't I turn off the verification requirements?
Pocket Drives enforces identity, insurance, and payment hold verifications on every rental to protect operators. This is a platform-level requirement and cannot be overridden.
