In Corporate Car Sharing there are 3 relevant booking types for pool vehicles:

• Business bookings
• Private bookings
• Service bookings

Business bookings represent the majority of booking volume in most companies. Examples include transport between locations, field sales and internal services.

Private bookings, on the other hand, are not a given in every company with pool vehicles. This is mainly due to the complex tax rules and the fear of additional payment of taxes, which by the way can be eliminated with our new Logbook.

Service bookings are important for all fleet managers who take care of vehicle maintenance. These bookings can be used to block vehicles for appointments such as repairs, tire changes or car washes. The function is especially important for ensuring that vehicles are blocked and that no booking conflicts occur.

Until now, it was obvious that price rules were necessary for correct billing for private and business bookings. In response to customer requests, we have now also implemented pricing and access rules for service bookings. Service providers can thus book vehicles within a set of rules. In our product Fleet Management, we will further expand the management of external service providers.

The functionalities are unlocked in every account with at least a Corporate Car Sharing PRO license.

The driving licence verification is an option for customers with an installed Car Sharing Kit and RFID reader in the vehicle.

An RFID sticker can be placed on the user's driving licence and its availability is verified before the start of every booking.

This function is not the same as the "Driving licence check" software module - but the two features are connected.

At the end of 2020, we were primarily focused on the legal and tax requirements for an electronic logbook. Since the beginning of the year, we have been testing user-friendliness together with our customers.

This feature introduces a new section listing all logbook exports performed in the system and providing easy access to past exports.

Privacy and data protection are a top priority at fleetster. In addition to regular source code checks and penetration tests, for each product update, a team is formed among our developers to try to hack our software. We are generally very concerned about keeping data security at the highest level.

In addition to this basic data security, more and more customers are now using telematics products, such as the driver's logbook, where a lot of data is collected. is now also increasingly about user rights and their self-determination when accessing data. With this in mind, we have released a new privacy measure with the latest product update:

In companies that use the tracking feature (these are almost exclusively customers from logistics), pool vehicle users can now deactivate the transmission of the GPS signal in our Car Sharing kits. In principle, no GPS data is shared for private journeys. A typical use case would be during the lunch break. During working hours, the use of the GPS signal is contractually regulated with the employee.

A new list that allows the admin to easily identify and manage uncategorized trips and notify the relevant drivers.

The Vehicle Groups feature allows administrators to manage complex permission and pricing rule combinations. This is especially valuable for large fleets because you can change prices and booking permissions for many 100 vehicles with just a few clicks.
Existing customers with large pool vehicle fleets only need to categorize their vehicles into groups and can then manage them centrally.

This feature is aimed at customers with more than 50 pool vehicles and is, therefore, part of the Corporate Car Sharing ENTERPRISE license. Our team will be happy to assist you in testing or activating the feature.

A new section in the digital vehicle file allowing the fleet manager to document the tires information, change date and the history of these changes.
