To end the trip, you need to be inside the Home Area. The Home Area is our operative area, in which SHARE NOW cars free-float around the city. You can park for free on any legal public street parking space within this area. It's possible to park and end your trip in drop off zones outside the city in your Home Area, but a drop off fee will apply.

See all parking rules

Think of the Home Area as our operating area, in which our cars free-float around the city and where you can park on the streets for free. You may leave the Home Area, but you must drive back to the same Home Area to end the trip.

If you're driving an electric car, please note that the range of a fully charged electric car is up to 100km (+/- 20km) and that there may not be charging stations outside the Home Area.

Simply open the SHARE NOW app to see the Home Area outlined on the map screen. Below you'll also find all the Home Area maps in SHARE NOW cities:

Drop off zones are part of the Home Area but are usually located a little outside the city. A drop off fee applies when you park the car and end your trip in drop off zones (marked "Zone A" or "Zone B" on the Home Area map). The drop off fee does not apply if you start and end your trip within the same drop off zone.

Well, okay, but on 3 conditions:

1. You pay for the parking fees yourself.
2. You don't end your trip inside the parking garage.
3. You park the car back on public street parking when you're done.

Doing a stopover with SHARE NOW is easy. First, park the car and shut all doors and windows. The next steps depends on the car:

Keyless cars:
- In the app, select Manage Trip ▶ Stopover. This will lock the doors.
- To continue driving, open the app and select Manage Trip ▶ Continue trip. This will unlock the doors.
- To end your trip, park the car and shut all doors and windows. In the app, select Manage Trip ▶ End trip.

Cars with keys:
- Use the car key to lock up the car and make sure to take the car key with you! In the app, select Manage Trip ▶ Stopover.
- To continue driving, open the app and select Manage Trip ▶ Continue trip. This will unlock the doors.
- To end your trip, park the car and place the car key back into the key card holder. Make sure doors and windows are closed. In the app, select Manage Trip ▶ End trip.

Important: Stopover time counts as part of your total trip duration. If you have selected an hourly or daily rate, stopover time will continue to use up the time you have booked. If you have selected the minute rate, stopover time will be billed according to the minute rate.
