Get started
The first step is to make sure you’ve downloaded the Lynk & Co app and enabled car sharing. You’ll fill out your profile information and set your price, schedule, and where the car should be picked up and dropped off.

When your car is available you’ll start getting booking requests from borrowers. Make sure you have allowed notifications so that you see new booking requests and respond within 24 hours.
You’ll choose if you want to accept or reject a booking request. If accepted, the borrower will get access to your car through the app when it’s time for their booking. No meeting up required.
The money you make will be paid out to your registered bank account every 7-14 days. Nice.
As part of the European legislation to enhance tax transparency (DAC7), all car holders who lend their car through the Lynk & Co sharing platform are asked to share their tax identification number when creating their sharing account on the Lynk & Co app. On the other hand, lenders are responsible to declare their own tax returns.
To sign up, borrowers must: have bank-grade risk and identity checks, be older than 18 years, and have never been involved in a severe traffic offence. In addition to this, lenders and borrowers rate their experience from one to five stars after every booking. Average ratings are available to check in the app.
