Frequently asked questions — Australia
How does Movialy help prevent damage disputes for car and motorbike rentals in Australia?+
Movialy stores timestamped check-in and check-out photos, odometer readings and fuel levels for every rental. The app compares start and end condition side by side, and completed rentals are locked by default to prevent unauthorised changes.
Can Movialy process credit card payments from my rental customers?+
Movialy does not process or collect payments. It records each payment, deposit and refund that you have already received through your own card terminal, bank transfer or cash. The ledger shows balances, unpaid amounts and overpayments in Australian dollars.
How does Movialy handle security deposits for car and motorbike hire?+
Movialy records the deposit at check-out and records its refund when you return the deposit to the customer. The operator collects and returns the deposit through their own payment methods; Movialy gives visibility on held deposits and outstanding refunds.
What maintenance deadlines can I track for my fleet in Australia?+
Movialy tracks oil change intervals, insurance expiry, vehicle tax and technical inspection deadlines per vehicle. The automatic todo list shows upcoming services, returns and deliveries, and you can log expenses with invoice photos.
Does Movialy work when internet connection drops during an airport pickup?+
Movialy is resilient to intermittent connectivity. An in-progress check-in, photo or payment recording completes locally and syncs automatically when the network returns. You need an internet connection to start a session or load bookings.
Is Movialy available in Australian English and local formats?+
Movialy supports 13 languages and local formats for currency, dates and phone numbers. Australian dollar amounts display with two decimals, and reports can be exported by email for your accountant.
