General
What is Here-MyCar?
Here-MyCar is a peer-to-peer car-sharing community in Malaysia. Here-MyCar facilitates the hiring of privately owned vehicles by providing a platform for listings, bookings and payments, with cars ranging in class from economy to luxury.
Car owners can offset the costs of financing and maintaining their own vehicle by sharing their asset through the Here-MyCar community.
How is car-sharing different from car rental?
Because you're renting cars from private car owners, you can get much better value-for-money than renting from agencies with large overheads. Plus, you get a huge amount of choice and can negotiate convenient pick-up and drop-off times and locations.
How Here-MyCar is going to change the world?
The sharing economy is the way of the future. The world has enough cars, but so many of them are under-utilized. Meanwhile, there are lots of people who need access to a car for a period of time—sometimes in the very same neighbourhood! Here-MyCar is creating a harmonious community of people who can make money from their under-used assets, benefiting the renters who get cheaper car rates and keeping money in the local economy.
Where can I rent a Here-MyCar?
Here-MyCar currently operates anywhere in Malaysia – stay tuned to our Facebook and Instagram for updates!
How do I join Here-MyCar?
Joining Here-MyCar is easy! Just download the app and login using your Facebook account, or or sign-up with your email address. Straight away, you'll get to see all the cars available in your area.
How quickly can I rent a car or list my car?
Before renting or listing a car, you will need to provide your ID and bank details so we can verify your identity. This can take up to 24 hours, so make sure you do upload your details as soon as possible. If you are listing your car for rent, we will also need to verify that you are the owner.
How much does it cost?
Unlike some car-sharing platforms, Here-MyCar is free to join. However, rentals rates vary depending on the type of car. Vehicles on Here-MyCar are up to half the price of traditional car rental companies – check out the Renter page or download our app to see our rates!
How much will I earn by sharing my car and how do I get paid?
How much you earn largely depends on the Vehicle you decide to share, as well as how frequently and how long you share your Vehicle for. Check out our car owner's page to check out how much you could earn!
Which cars do you accept?
We accept cars manufactured from 2010 onwards. Cars manufactured prior to 2010 will be considered on a case-by-case basis. All cars are subject to a stringent vetting process to ensure we have the types and quality of vehicles our customers demand.
What are the eligibility requirements to join Here-MyCar?
You must be at least 21 years old and hold a current full driver's license that is valid in Malaysia. You must also provide proof of identity when registering on the App. For more information, please refer to our Terms of Service and other policy documents.
What information is required from Renters?
Before a Renter can request a Vehicle, he or she must provide the following information:
- A full driver's license that is valid in Malaysia
- A valid Malaysian Identification Card (IC) or passport
- Personal bank account details
These items will be used to verify your identity.
The same information is also required from car owners before listing a car.
Can I drive if I have a non-Malaysian license?
If you do not hold a Malaysian driver's license, you have two options:
- You may obtain an International Driving Permit in your home country; or
- If your driver's license is issued by a country listed as recognised for the purposes of driving in Malaysia, you are permitted to drive in Malaysia (usually for up to 3 months from your arrival date) without additional permits. However, if your license is in a language other than English or Malay, it must be translated and approved by the embassy of the issuing country. For more information, see Acceptance of Foreign Driving License on the JPJ website.
Don't forget to provide a photo of your passport together with all other license verification documents.
Note: Residents from foreign countries who are staying in Malaysia long-term are encouraged to contact the Malaysian Road Transport Department to determine how to convert their foreign license or acquire a Malaysian driver's license.
How safe is my personal information?
All documents submitted to Here-MyCar are watermarked prior to being saved to the system. We don't disclose any information to third parties in line with Private Data Protection requirements, unless otherwise required by Here-MyCar (e.g. for legal or insurance purposes). For more information, view our Privacy policy.
How are my private verification documents handled? Who gets to view them and when do they get access to them?
Your documents are stored securely on the Here-MyCar server. They are only viewable by the administrator who verifies your identity, and cannot be extracted from our server. We are also compliant with the Malaysian Private Data Protection Act 2010, which means we do not share or disclose your details unless it is related to Here-MyCar (i.e. insurance purposes).
