The next generation of car rentals

A marketplace of thousands of car owners and small car rental businesses is taking your car rental experience to a whole new level
The coolest cars for rent in Greece

The Problem

For decades, people have been renting cars the same way: you book a car you like, go to the rental company’s office, wait at the counter, sign papers, hand over your credit card, wait for the car, and end up with a completely different model. The employee convinces you it’s in the “same category.” Together, you inspect the vehicle, sign more papers, get a bunch of instructions, and eventually, you’re ready to leave. Hours spent on something that, today, should take minutes. We can do much better.

The Solution

In 2024, we decided to create a marketplace for all car rentals in Greece, combining the best of technology with a futuristic experience. At the same time, we thought every Greek should be able to rent out their car, just like they can rent out their home on Airbnb. A significant asset was being underutilized for no good reason. But why hadn’t they done it before?

We spoke with many individuals who would like to rent out their car that’s just sitting there costing them money. Most of them wanted to turn it into a source of income. However, they lacked everything a modern rental company has: advertising and customers, a booking and payment system, fleet management tools, and insurance for accidents and damages. So, we worked for months to create exactly that: a true online marketplace where everyone—small rental agencies and private individuals—can attract renters from around the world without needing to invest in all of the above.

With Sync, anyone can now have a small or large car rental business and grow it as much as they want. All they need is one or more vehicles—nothing else. Oh, and a bit of time to manage bookings from their customers. Our mission is to help thousands of Greeks become entrepreneurs with their car as their only capital. What can you do as a car provider on Sync?
  • Set your own prices: Charge a daily rate that reflects what you think your car is worth.
  • List as many vehicles as you want: From one to thousands, we provide you with the tools to manage them.
  • Control your vehicle and personal availability: Choose which days each vehicle is available, and specify the hours you’re free to deliver or pick up your car.
  • Multiple pickup and drop-off locations: Don’t force your customer to come to you. You can set up delivery locations anywhere in the city. If you have a booking at one of them, you can deliver the car there at the agreed time.
  • Remote delivery: If your car is relatively new (from 2019 onwards), our system connects electronically with your vehicle, allowing your customer to unlock it via the Sync app—without you being there. How cool is that?
  • Automated customer messaging at preset times: Inform your customer about how to pick up the car, how to operate it, and how to resolve issues, all without having to write messages every time (…and trust us, much more!).

The Renter's Experience

None of the above would be possible, and no income could be provided to car owners, if we didn’t offer renters a unique experience—one they would love and seek out again and again. When you rent the car you want through Sync, the difference in your experience is clear from the very first moment compared to traditional car rentals.

The car you choose is exactly what you will drive. This is important for two reasons: the first is that, we humans generally prefer to be in control of what we do rather than have others choose for us. The second is because most people have an emotional connection to cars: what make/model they drive matters a lot to their experience. There is no reason to rent a "category" when you can rent the model you like.
  • The car you choose is exactly the car you’ll receive. This is important for two reasons: first, people generally prefer to have control over their choices rather than letting others decide for them. Second, most people have an emotional connection to cars—what brand or model they drive plays a big role in their experience. There’s no reason to rent a “category” when you can rent the specific model you like.
  • The car you choose could be very close to you, perhaps just down the street. This is because we have a large network of independent Providers spread across the city, unlike traditional rental companies that expect you to visit their few locations (typically only in city centers or at airports).
  • Remote delivery: Many cars on Sync are equipped with Sync Plus technology, meaning you can pick up your vehicle without even meeting the Provider. You locate the car on the map at the time of pickup, unlock it with the Sync app, and you’re ready to go!. Many Providers can even deliver the car you choose to your doorstep. We’ve equipped them with tools to specify in advance the areas where they can offer delivery, so you can see during booking which Providers can deliver right to your door.
  • For last-minute bookings, you can get your car within minutes of making your reservation, especially for vehicles equipped with remote unlock technology.
  • Direct support from the car owner: For anything you need regarding the vehicle, your service doesn’t come from a “call center” representative but from the car’s actual owner. The speed and accuracy of support are on another level when someone who knows the car well is assisting you.
  • A trusted marketplace: Like any marketplace that values its reputation, Sync has a review and rating system for Providers and vehicles. You can avoid vehicles that caused issues for previous renters or Providers with low service ratings. These will always be rare on Sync, but you can still choose the top-rated options for peace of mind.

    The benefits don’t stop here, but we hope you’ve seen just how dramatically improved your entire experience is with Sync.

The Future

The global car rental market is enormous, but for the most part, the largest share is dominated by a few multinational corporations. In Greece, the market is estimated to exceed one billion euros, yet the majority of the revenue goes to a handful of companies like AVIS, Hertz, and Sixt. At the same time, thousands of vehicles owned by individuals or small businesses across Greece sit unused for various reasons. What could be better than having all these cars meet the demand for car rentals, reducing the need for purchasing additional rental fleet vehicles? How much more efficient would that be for our cities and the environment?

But there’s more.

How much more beneficial would it be for the Greek economy if a significant portion of this demand for rental cars could be shifted to everyday people and small businesses? The mission of Sync is to empower ordinary Greeks to leverage their asset — their car— to increase their monthly income and redirect a share of the market’s wealth back to them.
