Rent-to-Own or Car Subscription

Subscription: The Smarter Alternative To Rent-To-Own Cars

Historically, one of the most popular ways to avoid the significant upfront financial commitment of purchasing a car was to choose a rent-to-own agreement. They often come with the appeal of no credit checks, deposits, or as part of a Centrelink-approved loan. However, the rent-to-own models also come with inflated costs and restrictive terms with outdated and unnecessary limitations.

Our Car Subscription model was created to address these limitations. Our collaboration with auto dealers has allowed us to create a better value, more straightforward alternative to car ownership and rent-to-own car options. Now, a simple weekly subscription fee allows you to drive away in any of our vehicles, leaving only fuel and tolls in your hands.

Car Subscription vs. Rent-to-Own

With Motopool’s new Car Subscription services, you'll find a far more manageable balance of convenience, affordability, and choice than traditional rent-to-buy / rent-to-own car options.

Car subscriptions offers:

Far less commitment.
Freedom to change cars anytime.
No balloon payments.

In comparison, traditional rent-to-own vehicle agreements operate on a linear path, forcing you to choose a car, pay regular 'installments' with the commitment to eventually buy the car.

A car subscription, however, means you never need to outlay the total cost of a depreciating vehicle. Don't get stuck with a car that's no longer the type of car you want (or need) or a hit with a 'balloon payment' for a car that's suddenly worth a fraction of what you bought it for.Motopool car subscriptions allow you to choose from a range of Australia's favourite new vehicles, leaving you to simply enjoy the drive. Then, when you're ready for something newer or different, just come back and select another.

What are Rent-to-Own Cars?

Car rent-to-own agreements are a model that spans a temporary period, offering the lessee a chance to eventually own the car at the end of the lease term. Each payment will contribute towards the cost of the car, as well as the fee of leasing the vehicle itself. This means that, while someone might have access to a vehicle before they have the funds to purchase it immediately, with a car rent-to-own options, you typically pay more in the long run (and gradually lose the value of your investment with depreciation).

Here's a breakdown of how it generally works:

Lease-Purchase Car Agreements

Customers agree to rent the car for a set period, often spanning several years.

Payments

Regular payments combine rental fees and contributions toward the car's purchase.

Ownership Transition

After completing all payments, customers can choose to own the car, optionally by making a final 'balloon payment.'

Flexibility vs. Costs

Though rent-to-own offers an ownership path, it may result in higher long-term expenses than other financing options.
