Never pay for car rental again

Never pay for a rental car again!

A new website has been launched to offer a credible alternative to renting cars for holiday or business purposes. The site at http://www.Pairngo.com is a community website dedicated to connecting members from around the world who are prepared to swap (pair) their cars for leisure or business trips.

Billions of dollars are spent every year by travellers on car rental. Car rental company profits are very healthy as evidenced by their SEC filings and independent rental industry reports. Why should we rent a car when we have an opportunity to pair with another Pairngo member making the mirror image of our journey and swap cars?

The first 3,000 memberships are being offered free for the first year and thereafter members will pay $20:00 per annum for membership of the community. Members are rated as they pair cars to ensure that the community can self regulate in terms of the quality of the pairing and pairing experience. When a member is interested in pairing they send a query to another member who will see a query alert when they next log in. The pairing members then make their own arrangements for the swap.

Registration is very straight forward with users entering details such as user name, car make, model, mileage, condition etc. Additionally members can upload up to 6 photographs of the car to enhance the descriptive text. A simple one-click system allows members to make cars available or unavailable for pairing purposes.

Insurance is not as big a problem as it might first appear as many companies will add an additional driver to a policy at no extra cost. Where this cannot be done there are a number of companies offering very competitive short-term insurance who will insure for swapping purposes. The cost of the additional insurance is generally a fraction of the car rental costs.

One such company is Norwich Union in the UK who offers a complete on-line system at http://www.norwichunion.com/short-term-insurance/index.htm other traditional insurance companies such as the AA offer a similar service. Herts Insurance of the UK https://www.hertsinsurance.com/shortperiod.php offers a “Walkabout” product that will cover backpackers and travellers with no permanent address! So insurance is not that big a problem for Pairngo members.

So will the community grow? We think so: as a lot of ordinary people have had bad experiences of car rental and do not want to pay exorbitant prices for the privilege of driving a car on vacation or business. We feel pairngo.com offers a unique service to members who will save themselves a lot of money each year by not having to pay for car rental.
