New to Fleetola? Here's the fastest path from sign-up to your first signed rental. Your very first sign-in opens the setup wizard - more on it below - and this checklist is what comes after.
Where to start
- Add your first vehicle with its rego and rates.
- Paste your rental terms under Settings → Contracts, so your agreement has something to point renters at.
- Set up payments so you can record what renters pay.
- Customise your renter portal with your logo and support details.
- Send your first contract to a renter.
- Set up GST invoicing so your invoices and receipts are tax-ready.
Each step has its own guide in this Help Centre if you want the detail.
The setup wizard
The wizard walks you through your business details, how you rent, your brand and renter support - plus payments and invoicing steps, depending on which of those sections your account has. Only three answers are truly required: your business name, your full name and a valid email. Everything else can be skipped and finished later from Settings.
Finish later ends the wizard early once those three are in, and anything you skipped waits in Settings. To run it again any time, press Replay setup under Settings → Business - your saved details are pre-filled, nothing is lost.
Tip: Check the Timezone on the business step. It drives payment due dates and overdue timing, and the wizard guesses it from your browser.
Signing up also sends you a verification email. Clicking it within 7 days is fine - nothing is locked while it waits.
When you can't find a setting
Remembering which tab of Settings holds a setting is not your job. Type what you are after into the search box at the top - try bond, late fee or timezone - and picking a result jumps to the tab, scrolls to the control and highlights it.
What Fleetola itself costs is its own guide - see Your Fleetola subscription.
Not in Australia? Your currency, the name of your tax and its rate are set under Settings → Business → Currency and tax - see Your business details and logo before you change them.
