Welcome to the first issue of the seasonal release, a quarterly roundup of recent host improvements and changes for Turo hosts, and a sneak peek of what’s coming up!
Automate your Tesla charging reimbursements
Hosts with Tesla vehicles can now easily review their guests’ supercharging sessions and request reimbursement, right from the Turo app, saving time and energy. Connect your Tesla account to Turo today to try it out.
New permissions for your hosting teams
Now hosts can give their co-hosts permission to manage pricing and availability as well as trips.
When you invite your co-hosts to a hosting team, they can use their own logins to access the info they need while keeping your sensitive info private.
Co-hosts can be anyone who helps you run your business, such as friends, family members, employees, or other Turo hosts.
