All about the GoGet Learner Program

Can Learner drivers join?

The GoGet learner program is for friends and family of existing GoGet members. This means you cannot open a GoGet account as a learner, but you can be added as an extra driver of an existing GoGet member.

  • The existing member must be 25yrs+ on a membership plan allowing additional drivers (e.g. GoFrequent, GoOccasional, GoBusiness, etc.).
  • Learners are only allowed to drive with other additional drivers on the GoGet account as passengers.

How much does it cost?

There’s a $25 fee for adding an extra driver to your account. On bookings, learner drivers are subject to a $2.50/hour surcharge**,** capped at $25/day.

In the event of an accident or damage, the damage cover liability is $5,500 with no option to reduce. As always if the cost of repair is lower, or the driver is deemed not at fault, the difference will be refunded.

Which cars can learners drive?

GoGet learners can drive any of GoGet's small hatchbacks.

Activate your GoGet smartcard.

If you requested for your smartcard to be posted to you, wait a few days for your smartcard to arrive.

If you chose to pick up your smartcard, then visit a Pick-Up Location to collect a smartcard from a retailer close to you.

Once you have your smartcard you will need to activate it. First, make sure you have downloaded the GoGet app, then activate your smartcard in the app. Go to Profile and Smartcard Management and follow the prompts.
