Host FAQ

Got questions?

How much can I realistically earn per month?+
Earnings vary by vehicle type, location, and availability. On average, Canadian hosts earn $800–$2,500/month. A mid-range SUV in Toronto available 20 days/month at $90/day generates approximately $1,440 gross ($1,152 after the 20% platform fee).
What happens if a guest damages my car?+
GarudaDrive's insurance activates the moment a trip begins. You're covered for physical damage up to the vehicle's market value. Depending on your protection plan, your deductible is $0–$1,500. You never negotiate with guests directly — our claims team handles everything.
Can I set my own availability and block dates?+
Absolutely. You have full control over your calendar. Block any date for personal use, maintenance, or any reason. You can also set minimum notice periods (e.g., 2 hours before a trip) and minimum/maximum trip durations.
Does my personal auto insurance cover me between trips?+
Yes. Your personal provincial auto insurance covers you when you or your family drive the vehicle. GarudaDrive's insurance only activates during booked trips. Between trips, you're covered by your own policy as normal.
How and when do I get paid?+
Earnings are deposited directly to your Canadian bank account via EFT within 3 business days of trip completion. You'll receive an itemized earnings statement for each trip and a monthly summary for tax purposes.
Do I need to meet guests in person?+
Not necessarily. Many hosts use key lockboxes for fully contactless pickup and drop-off. You set up the lockbox code through your dashboard and guests receive the code only after they've been verified and the trip is confirmed.
When is GarudaDrive launching?+
GarudaDrive is launching in June 2026 across Ontario, starting with Toronto, Ottawa, and Mississauga. Early hosts who register before launch will get 3 months of Premium membership free plus priority listing placement at launch.
