Website upgrade

If you have logged onto our booking system recently, you'll be aware that things look a bit different.

We have made some really big changes. Besides new features like searching by address, by specific locations and by car accesories - many of the changes aren't that obvious because they're "behind-the-scenes".

The GoGet booking system started with three cars and 12 members. Today, with almost 800 cars and 18,000 members making hundreds of bookings each day, our first priority is - as it always has been - the stability of the system.

These behind-the-scenes changes mean we can now be more responsive to what you need and are able to make improvements to the system quickly without compromising stability.

We would love your feedback on the changes, so that we can continue improving the system over the coming months to make it the best and easiest to use carshare system in the world.  Check out the job ad below if you want to be part of the team.

Tip of the month
Please remember to always return a car with the fuel tank at least 1/4 full. Members who fail to do this seriously inconvenience their fellow members and receive unnecessary fines.

Also, when filling up using our Caltex fuel cards, it's important to fill up using the right fuel for the particular vehicle you're driving, otherwise the card won't work.

To check the correct fuel type for your vehicle, just look for the sticker on the fuel card holder in the car.
GoGet wedding!

Alfa Wedding 1

Congratulations to Aasa and Steve and thanks for letting us be a small part of your day!
