How can we help?

Booking & trips

How do I book a car?

Pick a city and dates on the home page, browse available vehicles, and tap Book. Some listings book instantly; others need the host to accept your request within 24 hours.

What happens if a host doesn’t respond?

Pending requests auto-expire after 24 hours. You’re not charged for an expired request, and you can immediately book a different vehicle.

Can I extend a trip?

Yes — from the trip detail page, request an extension. The host has to accept, and the price is recomputed at the original daily rate.

How do I cancel?

Open the booking detail and tap Cancel. Refund amount depends on how close to the trip start you cancel — see the cancellation policy.

Hosting

What does it cost to list?

Listing is free. AutoX takes a 15% service fee on each completed booking; the rest is yours.

How fast is approval?

New listings are reviewed within 24 hours. Once live, renters can book immediately.

Can I block dates?

Yes — add blackout dates from your listing’s availability calendar. Existing bookings during a blocked range stay valid.

When do I get paid?

Earnings settle to your linked bank account within 24 hours of trip completion.

Payments & payouts

What payment methods do you accept?

Card, bank transfer, and USSD via Paystack. NGN only at present.

Why was my card declined?

Most declines come from insufficient funds, an issuer-side block on online payments, or a 3DS challenge that timed out. Try a different card or your bank app.

When is the security deposit returned?

Within 24 hours of trip completion, provided the host confirms the vehicle was returned in agreed condition.

How do refunds work?

Cancellations refund to the original payment method. Card refunds typically settle in 3–7 business days; bank-transfer refunds in 1–2.

Verification & accounts

What’s required for verification?

Renters: driver’s license, government ID, phone, and email. Hosts also upload vehicle title or registration plus current insurance.

How long does KYC take?

Most submissions are reviewed within 4 business hours. You’ll get an email when the result lands.

My KYC was rejected — what now?

Open Verification in your dashboard, read the rejection reason, and resubmit the affected document. There’s no limit on resubmissions.

Can I change my email or phone after signing up?

Yes — from Profile › Account. Changing email triggers a re-verification email; changing phone triggers a fresh OTP.

Trust & safety

What does insurance cover?

Every confirmed trip is covered by AutoX host protection — collision and third-party liability up to ₦5,000,000.

What if the car is damaged?

Open a dispute in-app within 24 hours of trip end. Our trust team reviews photos and trip data, then triggers the protection cover.

I had a roadside emergency — what do I do?

Stay safe first. Use the in-app SOS button to reach 24/7 support; we coordinate towing and a replacement vehicle if needed.

How do I report a host or renter?

Use the Report option on the trip or profile page. Reports are reviewed within 4 business hours; we never share the reporter’s identity.

Still need a hand?

Our support team responds in under 4 business hours.
