Coastr alternatives
Coastr alternatives to look at are HQ Rental Software, Loopit, RENTALL, Carz and Rental Car Manager. Coastr is UK-rooted and shows no prices on its pricing page. Carz is built for Australian operators on weekly hire and charges AUD $7 per rented car per month, ex GST, published on its site.
Every fact about another company on this page links to that company’s own site and says when we read it. Where a company does not publish something, we say so.
What Coastr is built around
Coastr is a trading name of Nuvven Limited, with offices in Edinburgh, London and Bengaluru. It serves rental, sharing, subscription, leasing and corporate fleets, runs on AWS, and builds in GPS tracking, remote immobilisation and keyless entry.
Its compliance is UK-shaped: the site points to DVLA and a driver and vehicle licence check. The pricing page lists tiers but no amounts, and it says to ask your sales contact if month-to-month billing works for your account.
Australia, Square and PayTo do not appear on its homepage. An operator outside the UK, or one who wants a figure before a call, has reason to compare.
