About Splend
Splend provides cars to rideshare drivers in Australia on all-inclusive weekly plans, with a smaller operation in London. Its Flexi Try plans are rental-style for drivers wanting flexibility, while Flexi Own plans lead to ownership over a longer term, including five-year plans on new cars.
The weekly payment covers registration, comprehensive rideshare loss and damage cover, maintenance and servicing, and Splend helps set drivers up with Uber before collection. Current models include the BYD Sealion 6 and Sealion 8, Chery Tiggo 8 and Toyota Camry Hybrid, with prices from around $358 a week for the Tiggo 8. Splend says an extensive credit history is not required.
It is a specialist choice for people driving for rideshare platforms, which mainstream subscriptions often prohibit. Reviews are mixed, with frequent complaints about fees, payment enforcement and transparency, so read the agreement closely.
