All-inclusive car subscription in South Africa
MadRent offers a true all-inclusive car subscription: one fixed monthly payment puts you in a brand-new car with insurance, maintenance, tyres, tracking and a courtesy car all included. There is no deposit, no bank finance, and approval is based on affordability, not your credit score. Subscriptions start from R6,395 per month, with nationwide delivery.
What’s included in your monthly subscription
- A brand-new, current-year vehicle
- Comprehensive insurance (underwritten by Hollard)
- Maintenance and servicing
- Tyres
- A vehicle tracker
- 24/7 roadside assistance
- A courtesy car while yours is being serviced
- 3,000 km per month
One payment, everything handled — no surprise bills.
How the car subscription works
- Apply online in minutes. We assess affordability and stability, not your credit score.
- Choose your car from our own fleet of over 2,000 brand-new vehicles.
- Pay one monthly amount — no deposit, just a once-off start-up fee.
- Drive. Insurance, maintenance and tyres are already covered.
- Stay flexible. Return or cancel anytime, or follow the rent-to-own path and own the car at the end of the term.
Subscription or rent-to-own — you choose
Both come with the same all-inclusive monthly package. A car subscription lets you drive a brand-new car flexibly with everything bundled in. Rent-to-own gives you that same package plus a clear path to owning the vehicle. Either way you deal with MadRent directly — we own our fleet and handle everything in-house in South Africa, so we’re not an aggregator passing you to a call centre.
Who qualifies
Approval is individually assessed on affordability, so drivers the banks turn away — including people with impaired credit or under debt review — can still drive a brand-new car. There is no deposit; instead a once-off, non-refundable start-up fee applies (from around R20,000, depending on the vehicle).
Why choose MadRent over other car subscriptions
- Direct provider — we own and run our own fleet of 2,000+ brand-new cars, not a marketplace.
- Genuinely all-inclusive — insurance, maintenance, tyres, tracking and a courtesy car in one fee, with no hidden costs.
- Approved on affordability, not credit score — we say yes when the banks say no.
- In-house, South Africa-based support and nationwide delivery.
