The Challenge

What Car Hire & Vehicle Rental
Businesses Face.

  • Vehicle Theft & Non-Return

    Vehicles stolen outright or deliberately not returned leave hire companies with uninsurable losses and lengthy police processes that rarely result in quick recovery.

  • Fraudulent Bookings

    Stolen IDs, synthetic identities, and cloned payment cards used to hire vehicles — often for onward criminal use including drug supply, robbery, and further vehicle crime.

  • Cross-Region Offending

    Once a hire vehicle crosses county lines, conventional policing resources cannot maintain active pursuit — and without shared intelligence, serial offenders simply move on to the next hire firm.

  • Serial Offenders Across Fleets

    Professional criminals exploit multiple hire companies with the same methods. Without cross-company intelligence, each hire firm is targeted repeatedly without awareness of the pattern.
