Tarlen allows you add extra drivers on your trip at no additional cost. To do this
You must have successfully booked your trip.
The extra driver must have a fully verified account on Tarlen.
If the extra driver doesn’t have an account when you add them, they’ll be prompted to create one and complete their verification process before being approved as an extra driver on your trip.
⚠️ Important: Allowing someone who hasn’t been fully approved to drive will void your insurance and violates Tarlen’s Terms of Service.
As the primary renter, you are responsible for the rental and must be present to pick up and return the vehicle. Extra drivers are not allowed to pick up or return the vehicle, and your host will not hand over the keys to them.
How to Add an Extra Driver
Complete your booking for the trip.
Go to the “Trips” tab in your account.
Under “Upcoming Trips,” select the trip where you’d like to add an extra driver.
Scroll to the bottom of the trip page and tap “Extra Driver.”
Fill out the form with the extra driver’s:
Name.
Email associated with their verified Tarlen account.
If they don’t have an account, provide the email they will use to sign up.
Submit the form.
Extra Driver Approval Process
If the extra driver already has a verified Tarlen account with the email you provided, their name will appear under the “Extra Driver” section with a green checkmark, confirming they’ve been successfully added.
If they don’t have an account or haven’t completed verification, their name will appear with a yellow “Pending” status. An email will be sent to them with instructions on how to set up and verify their account to get approved.
Driver Eligibility
Please note that extra driver's are also subject to Tarlen's driver eligibility criteria.
