Location surcharges for certain areas
What is a location surcharge and why do some areas have an extra surcharge due to their premium location
Some pods (parking bays) carry a location surcharge. These are typically in high-cost areas and are passed on to users to cover extra operating expenses.
We apply location surcharges in two main scenarios:
- Commercial car parks
Pods located in commercial car parks often incur higher fees. To operate there sustainably, we include a surcharge. - Premium council / suburb zones
In certain councils or localities, the local council charges higher rates to GoGet for dedicated carshare only parking. Dedicated GoGet bays in these areas, therfore, have a location surcharge to offset those higher costs.
The vast majority of GoGet pods don’t have location surcharges.
How do I know which locations have a Location Surcharge
The app and website will display a Location Surcharge badge below the car name.
