1. Our concept - your advantages
Where can I book or hire a wheego vehicle?
In your wheego app you can see different marked areas, these areas are called business areas. There can be a different number of business areas in a region, city or at the sharing car parks of the respective airports. In these business areas, you can book the vehicle, when you no longer need it can you park it and end the rental. We are working on expanding our business areas and you will always receive up-to-date information in your wheego app.
How is my driving licence verified?
Your driving licence will be verified digitally in the wheego app during your registration process. You will be forwarded to our partner who will carry out the check on our behalf and verify your driving licence and ID card.
For verification, we accept valid driving licences issued in the European Union (EU) and the European Economic Area (EEA).
Driving licences from a non-EU/EEA country are valid for 6 months from the date of first entry into Germany.

4. During the rental period
Where can I park my wheego vehicle for its return?
When parking, always make sure that you are not obstructing anyone, pay attention to the appropriate signage in the street area and always observe the road traffic regulations. Where possible, we work with the local authorities to ensure that you can park your wheego vehicle in any proper and publicly accessible car park within the business area. However, each city has its own parking regulations. We are currently working on different solutions with the cities of Berlin, Hamburg, Düsseldorf, Duisburg and Frankfurt.
Berlin: You currently have to pay to park in Berlin's car park management zones. We are currently working on a solution with the city of Berlin.
Hamburg: You currently have to pay to park in Hamburg's parking management zones. We are currently working on a solution with the city of Hamburg.
Rellingen : Parking in the business area car park is free of charge.

Vienna : coming soon
Within the business area, the vehicle can either be returned to a free parking space on public roads that is not marked by a stopping or parking ban or to specially marked private parking spaces. Only park in areas with a day or time-related restriction on parking authorisation (e.g. stopping bans with additional signs such as "7:00 - 17:00" or "Monday 6:00 - 12:00") if the restriction only comes into effect 48 hours after the vehicle has been parked. This also applies to traffic bans, such as temporary parking bans due to weekly markets, events or parades.
Refuelling and charging included for passenger cars - how does it work?
We provide you with our DKV Tank & Ladekarte for refuelling our share passenger cars. You will find the refuelling & charging card in the key holder of the vehicle. The PIN is displayed in the "Refuelling / Charging" app function during the rental.
Like all card payment systems, the DKV card is only valid in the participating DKV petrol station network. Although we cover around 99% of all petrol stations in Germany with DKV, please make sure that your chosen petrol station accepts the DKV card as a means of payment before filling up. If this is not the case, we will refund the fuel you have paid for. For the reimbursement, please send us an e-mail immediately with the fuel receipt as a PDF or photo (in the usual image format jpg., png), a photo of the wheego vehicle as it is at the petrol station on which the registration number can be seen, as well as a photo of the fuel gauge (which you can find on the dashboard display when the ignition is switched on), the name of the renter and your bank details (name of bank & IBAN) to tankerstattung@wheego-mobility.com. The refund will be made by bank transfer, subject to verification of the refuelling process. Please note that for refuelling without our DKV card and not due to a technical error on our part, the transfer will be made minus a processing fee. See our cost and fee schedule https://www.wheego-mobility.com/de/agb-mobile#kosten-share
At which charging stations can I charge wheego electric vehicles?
How do I charge the YOYO?
Where can I find the charging cable in my electric vehicle?
In our wheego electric vehicles you will find the charging cable for the socket connection and/or a charging cable for fast charging in the boot. At public charging points, you can charge the vehicle using the fuel and charging card from the glove compartment without having to pay for it yourself.
If you still have questions, you will find a precise and brief explanation of how charging works in your vehicle's manual.
Can I make one-way rides with wheego?
The return of your wheego vehicle in another business area is possible for an additional fee. The amount of the fee can be found in the current cost and fee schedule: www.wheego-mobility.com/de/agb#agb-share. There is no additional one-way fee for journeys between our city zones and the associated airports (e.g. Berlin - BER, Hamburg - HAM, Düsseldorf - DUS etc.). Our vans are only available on a station basis, i.e. hire and return at the same location. One-way journeys are not possible.
Can I travel abroad with my wheego vehicle?
Can I smoke in the wheego car?
If you do so anyway, we will have to charge you for the costs of special cleaning, removal of traces and loss of use. Please refer to our cost and fee schedule:: www.wheego-mobility.com/de/agb-mobile#kosten-share
Can I transport my pet in my wheego car?
In principle, you may transport your pet in your wheego car. However, you must make sure that the pet does not leave any dirt, hair or scratch marks behind. You will have to pay for the special cleaning and removal of marks yourself.
For safety reasons, we also recommend that you always use a transport box and place it in the boot.
We would like to point out that animals must be adequately secured during transport and that you must provide a suitable securing device in the form of a transport box, belt or separating grid and use it when travelling.
Do I have to refuel/charge the wheego vehicle before returning it?
However, when returning the wheego vehicle, please make sure that it has at least 25% fuel or that the electric vehicle has at least 25% charge. Please also note that you do not have to pay for the fuel you refuel and the electricity you charge yourself. You simply use the wheego fuel and charging card in the vehicle and refuel at one of our partner petrol stations or charge at the approved charging stations. If you return your wheego vehicle with a tank content of less than 25% or a charge level of less than 25%, we will charge a fee because we have to refuel the vehicle ourselves before the next customer can use it. See our cost and fee schedule: https://www.wheego-mobility.com/de/agb-mobile#kosten-share
5. When returning the vehicle
What do I need to consider when terminating the rental agreement?
In order to provide our customers with vehicles that can be planned and reserved, we have defined business areas. Therefore, you can only return your vehicle and terminate the rental in the defined business areas. If you return and terminate the rental outside our business area, you will incur additional charges. The costs are based on the cost of returning the vehicle to the business area.
A successful termination of the rental is only possible if a secure and stable mobile connection to the vehicle can be established at the vehicle's return location and the vehicle is located within a zone of the business territory authorised for return. Within the business area, the vehicle can be returned either to a free parking space not marked by a stopping or parking ban on public roads or to specially marked private parking spaces. Only park in areas with a day or time-related restriction on parking authorisation (e.g. stopping bans with additional signs such as "7:00 - 17:00" or "Monday 6:00 - 12:00") if the restriction only comes into effect 48 hours after the vehicle has been parked. This also applies to traffic bans, e.g. temporary parking bans due to weekly markets, events or parades.
Before the end of the rental, you will be asked to take 4 photos in the app to document the condition of the vehicle. Please make sure that the photos are meaningful and that the vehicle's licence plate number is visible.
You automatically initiate the end of your rental process when you have parked your wheego vehicle, returned the key, the fuel and charging card (car) to the key holder provided in the glove compartment, locked the windows and doors and the 4 vehicle photos have been taken. You can then simply end the rental via the wheego app. As soon as the central locking system of your wheego vehicle is closed, the rental is actually terminated. Please note that the termination of a rental of an electric vehicle cannot take place at a charging station, should you end your rental there, we will all incur costs that we want to avoid. See our cost and fee schedule: www.wheego-mobility.com/de/agb#agb-share

However, if you are unable to complete the rental because the fuel and charging card or the vehicle keys are not in the vehicle, or you have not closed the doors or windows, your rental will continue to run.
What damages will be accounted for at the end of my rent?
What additional costs can I incur for the return?
We want our wheego products to be fair and transparent for you. Therefore, it is very important for us that you know all costs that may be incurred.
Depending on the rate you book, your rental price already includes various mileage packages for hourly and daily rentals. You pay for each kilometer that exceeds your booked inclusive kilometer package, the cost of the additional kilometers according to the tariff. If you exceed the rental period you booked, we will charge you for the additional rental period as well as the kilometers driven according to the per-minute rate.
So that the next wheego customer does not have to refuel/charge directly, it is necessary that you return your wheego SHARE vehicle with a fuel level or, in the case of electric vehicles, with a charge level of at least 25%.
Please note that you do not have to pay for the fuel you fill up here and the electricity you charge. You simply use the wheego fuel and charge card in your vehicle, fill up at one of our partner fuel stations or charge at one of our charging stations.
If the tank level/charge level is below 25%, we will have to charge you an expense fee. If the tank is almost empty when you return it, i.e. below ⅛ tank capacity, or the charge level is below 10%, then the fee increases, as we have to deploy personnel for refueling or charging trips.
In the event of a claim, we charge the damage costs up to a maximum of the agreed deductible as well as a handling fee.
All possible costs that may arise, we have clearly presented for you in our current cost and fee schedule (www.wheego-mobility.com/de/agb-mobile#kosten-share).
6. Damage - ticket
How are wheego vehicles insured?
All vehicles are covered by liability insurance. In the event of damage to our vehicle, the excess in the event of a claim depends on the vehicle group booked and the cover package (insurance) booked.
The respective deductible as well as the fees and prices for the reduction of the own liability can be found in our current schedule of costs and fees (www.wheego-mobility.com/de/agb-mobile#kosten-share).
