Share your car anywhere, any time, offset the cost of owning a car or build a business! There are a number of ways to earn on Uber Carshare, casual sharing is a  great option for people who don't currently use their car enough to justify the cost of keeping it, whilst setting up a car share business involves listing one (or more) cars on the platform that are dedicated to sharing.

How much you could earn

Cars that are only shared occasionally earn around $300 a month on average, while the top-earning cars, utes and vans shared full-time bring in $1,000 to $2,000 per month. This is after Uber Carshare’s commission, but before you pay for fuel and other running costs. You can read more about earnings here.

Hear from other owners  

How this young creative's car became a simple side-hustle: Many owners, like Priyanka cover the costs of owning their car – like rego and insurance – by renting it out when it would otherwise sit by the kerb. Read more about Priyanka’s story here.

“I only drive a couple of times a week, and I rent my car out when I’m not using it. The earnings pay for rego and insurance, so I can invest that money into growing my art business. My car has stopped costing me money and started making me money.” - Priyanka

How this Sydney entrepreneur turned his passion into an enterprise: Since joining forces with Uber Carshare, Steve has earned over $80,000 from his expanding vehicle fleet - but he is quick to point out that this isn’t a set-and-forget investment or a get-rich-quick scheme. Read more about Steve's story here.

"I’ve built up from sharing one car, to sharing six. It’s a great business - not just because of the return on my investment, but because it helps to reduce the number of wasted cars in the community." - Steve

Building a business

Setting up a car share business offers owners the ability to scale and grow an enterprise. The majority of our pro owners started by listing one or two vehicles before using the profits to purchase additional cars to add to the platform. If you have a fleet of cars you want to list or you’re thinking of investing we recommend speaking with a Uber Carshare professional fleet manager. To find out more or book your call click here.
