WaiveCar's Free Rentals Ended,

A Real Discount Code.

WaiveCar Promo Code

WaiveCar — the free, ad-wrapped electric car rental service out of Venice Beach and Santa Monica — appears to be discontinued as of this writing. There was never a WaiveCar promo code to begin with (the whole pitch was free rentals for everyone), and now there’s no working app or site to use it on anyway. If you need a car, jump to Turo below — it’s the closest thing still running, and we have a real discount code for it.

What Was WaiveCar?

WaiveCar’s idea was genuinely clever: a fleet of electric cars, free to rent for the first two hours ($6/hour after that), paid for by geo-targeted advertising wrapped on the outside of each car. It launched with about twenty cars around Venice Beach and Santa Monica and planned to grow from there. No promo code was ever required — that was the whole point.

As of this writing, we couldn’t find WaiveCar operating anywhere. Its App Store listing is gone (a direct fetch returns “not found”), and waivecar.com’s domain is still registered but doesn’t serve a working site on either http or https — the kind of setup you see when infrastructure has been abandoned but nobody’s gotten around to letting the domain lapse. Between the two, we’re treating WaiveCar as discontinued.

If you want to rent a car, Turo is the modern equivalent — a peer-to-peer marketplace where you rent from local car owners instead of a traditional rental counter, with way more selection than WaiveCar ever had. If you just need a ride rather than a rental, Lyft is still running and still has an active sign-up bonus.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is WaiveCar still operating?

We couldn’t find any evidence it is. The app is no longer listed in the App Store, and the WaiveCar website doesn’t load, though the domain itself is still registered.

Did WaiveCar ever need a promo code?

No — the first two hours were free for everyone, no code required. That was always WaiveCar’s pitch.

What’s the closest alternative to WaiveCar?

Turo, for renting a car from a local owner — it’s the peer-to-peer model closest to what WaiveCar offered, minus the free hours. See our Turo guide for a current discount code.

What if I just need a ride, not a rental?

Lyft is still active and still runs a sign-up bonus for new riders — see our Lyft guide for current details.
