How to Book Your First Rental

Open your KINTO Share app and reserve your first car by selecting the reservation type that works for you. 

Custom reservations: Sometimes, you need a car for a specific time. This option allows you the rent a vehicle for as low as 4 hours or up to 28 days. Cars in this fleet are model year 2021 and newer. 

Weekly reservations: If you prefer to secure a vehicle weekly, the weekly option is the best solution. You can rent a car for up to 28 days with weekly rentals.

You can reserve your car one week in advance. We have many locations conveniently located in select areas of California and Texas.

Pick up Your Car

With KINTO, you don’t need to visit a pick-up counter or worry about adding another key to your keyring. Our vehicles are located at various lots without an attendant available. We are just a text away if you have questions. Walk up to your reserved car, open your KINTO Share app, click the Check-in button, complete the check-in process, and start your drive. Your app will unlock/lock the car and start your vehicle.

Extend Your Reservation

Extending your reservation is easy and can all be done in the app. All you need to do is click the Edit Reservation button to start the process.

If you want to extend your reservation, we recommend doing so within the first 48 hours of starting your reservation, as this will be the only way to guarantee you can keep your car before we open it for other customers to reserve upon your return.
