Quick answer
Yes, you can make money renting your car in Mexico with KORU, but there's no guaranteed figure: it depends on the price you set, the days the car is free and the season. You sign up as a provider with your INE, your CLABE and a signed contract, add the car and KORU reviews it; you get notified when it goes live. The customer pays on korurent.com, KORU collects on your behalf and keeps a fixed 15 % commission, VAT included. You can sign up from any Mexican state, though today only Puerto Escondido has published vehicles.
How do you make money renting your car with KORU?
KORU is a platform: you bring the car, and KORU brings the page where customers find it, the payment, the contract and the support. You set your daily rate and can change it whenever you want. You also choose your pickup point and whether you offer home delivery, up to how many kilometers; you agree on that delivery cost with the customer by message. If the car is busy outside KORU, you block those dates in your dashboard. Besides cars, the listing flow accepts pickups, jeeps, ATVs, motorcycles and scooters, among others.
What does the KORU provider sign-up ask for?
The sign-up is online and saves your progress. You pick Rent, the vehicle service, and create your account with Google or your email, using your name exactly as it appears on your INE, Mexico's voter card. You confirm your cell phone with an SMS code and verify your identity with Didit: your valid INE, front and back, plus a selfie; KORU never stores your images. Then you confirm your details, add your CLABE and sign the Provider Agreement. The team reviews your sign-up and emails you; once you're approved, you set up payouts, add the car in your dashboard and we review it before it goes live.
How much does KORU charge, and how do you get paid?
KORU charges a fixed 15 % commission, VAT included, the same for every provider. It's calculated on the rental rate, excluding VAT and delivery, and we invoice it to you separately. What your rentals earn reaches your CLABE via Stripe. Because KORU is an intermediary that collects from the customer on your behalf, the law requires it to withhold income tax (ISR) and VAT (IVA) from those earnings (article 113-A of the LISR and 18-J of the LIVA). KORU isn't applying those withholdings yet: when it starts, your dashboard will show each month's detail and your withholding receipt.
Heads up
Before you sign, open the full Provider Agreement and read its annexes: that's where payments, the commission, withholdings, damages, cancellations and disputes are covered. If anything about your car's coverage isn't clear, ask the team before you list it.
“For us, a clean car with up-to-date maintenance and honest photos matters more than the brand or the year. And since we can't promise you how much you'll make, we'd rather tell you before you sign.”

Can you sign up outside Puerto Escondido?
Yes. The sign-up isn't limited to Puerto Escondido: it asks for your address, read from your INE, and accepts any city or municipality in any Mexican state. That address sets the city where your business appears, and you write your own pickup point when you list the car. What we won't promise you is demand: today the only city with published vehicles on KORU is Puerto Escondido. Even in Puerto Escondido, a new provider's car may be approved but unpublished until KORU opens publishing; we'll let you know when it goes live.

Frequently asked questions
There's no figure we can promise: it depends on your daily rate, how many days the car is free and the season. The only fixed part is the commission: 15 % of the rate before VAT, and that 15 % already includes its own VAT. The rest is yours, minus withholdings once they apply.
Yes. It's fixed, VAT included, and doesn't change by provider, car or city. It's calculated on the rental rate, excluding VAT and delivery. KORU invoices that commission to you separately, and your dashboard shows month by month what we've paid out to you.
As an individual you can sign up without an RFC, but your payouts are held until you add it from your dashboard, and the legal withholding without an RFC is higher. As a company, the RFC is mandatory, along with the legal business name, tax regime and tax ZIP code.
Yes. The sign-up accepts your address in any city or municipality in Mexico. What we can't promise is customers: today the only city with published vehicles on KORU is Puerto Escondido. Sign up knowing that.
What happens with damages, cancellations and disputes is in the Provider Agreement and its annexes; read them in full and ask the team about coverage before you sign. What the system does enforce: you can't hand over the car until the customer's license is verified and, if there's a deposit, they've authorized it.
Yes. In your dashboard you block the dates when the car is busy outside KORU, so they don't clash with a booking. The contract doesn't ask for exclusivity, but it does ask you not to take customers who came through KORU off the platform.
If you already have your INE, your CLABE and the car photos, go to Become a provider on korurent.com and tap Start your application. If a question comes up before you sign, message us on WhatsApp or from Help inside the sign-up, and we'll go through it with you.
