Say goodbye to hidden costs

Splend specialises in providing tailored products and services designed for PCO drivers. From the car research and ordering, to negotiating the best rates Splend handles it all, plus provides the best services to ensure your car is always on the road to keep you earning. Having the best PCO and automotive experts in one place at Splend makes Splend the ultimate PCO dealership!

Splend offers two flexible vehicle plans to suit your needs. Our flagship plan, Flexi Own, allows you to work towards car ownership while benefiting from all the inclusions necessary for a hassle-free experience. If you aren’t too sure about which vehicle to select, our Flexi Try option lets you try before you buy. Flexi try gives you the peace of mind to do a real situational long term test drive with the ability to switch between available vehicles. This service supports you in making the right decision when you’re ready to upgrade to our ownership plans.

Whichever option you choose, Splend covers everything you need for hassle-free PCO driving, including PHV licence, PHV damage and loss cover, car tax and MOT, servicing, maintenance and more.

Getting started with Splend is very easy and straightforward. First, fill in the enquiry form on our website. Then, one of our team members will contact you to understand your needs and provide you our expert advice on the latest products perfect for PCO driving. You’ll then be invited to book an appointment at our Hub, where you can test drive the car and finalise the sign-up process. Once that’s done, you can pick up your car and start enjoying hassle-free driving from day one.

Alternatively, feel free to visit one of our Hubs during opening hours.

To sign up, you’ll need a copy of your driver’s licence with your current address or change of address sticker, your passport/birth certificate or citizenship certificate.

We understand that costs are a crucial factor for PCO drivers, which is why Splend offers transparent pricing and all-inclusive packages that aim to be cheaper than you would get organising the buying, financing and owning costs yourself. Why bother having to worry about negotiating with a dealership, determining the right finance, getting quotes for multiple damage and loss rates and then having to worry about getting the best price at each maintenance visit when Splend negotiates the best rates for you. 

Our weekly payments include all your car ownership expenses such as PHV licence, damage and loss cover, servicing and maintenance, and are typically much cheaper (and certainly more convenient) than managing everything yourself. There's also a one-off signup fee to get started in securing and ordering your chosen vehicle.

All our plans come with free miles up to your weekly mileage allowance. If you drive more than this limit you’ll incur an Excess Mileage fee. On our Flexi Own plans this goes towards reducing the length of your contract, so you can own your car sooner, helping maximise the value of the vehicle at the end of the term.

Our weekly fee is subject to additional fees for unpaid PNCs and unpaid Splend invoices. To avoid these charges, we recommend setting up a debit card and setting up a road toll account.

We can onboard you the same day you apply provided you’re an approved PCO driver with all the required documents ready (including your damage and loss checks approved), and your preferred car is available.

If you have ordered a brand-new vehicle, depending on the car chosen there may be a wait time, though we will advise you at the time of signing up. In the event of a wait, we can place you in a temporary Flexi Try vehicle, so you can start earning straight away, and then exchange on the day your car arrives.

Splend offers a wide range of PCO-ready Electric Vehicles (EVs). We’ll help you find the right car for you, considering not only the cost but also the potential earnings based on the different Uber categories you’d qualify for. Whether you’re after express ownership with a pre-owned EV or looking to maximise your earnings in a vehicle eligible for Uber XL, we've got you covered. To check out our full range you can browse our available cars here.

While the car is provided for business use, the car is yours to use 24/7, predominantly for your PCO business and incidentally for personal use. If you want to drive the car on a road trip (or any extended usage), please contact our customer support team to discuss your arrangements. Please note that our insurance does not allow the car to be driven outside of England

At Splend, we don’t just hand you the keys and leave you hanging. Our dedicated Customer Specialists are on hand to answer any questions or deal with any issues. They can help you through every step to becoming a successful on-demand driver, as well as down the road.
