Ardena Host

Turn your car into an asset. Host on Ardena, share your vehicle securely with verified clients, and track your daily earnings seamlessly within a trusted dashboard

Turn your car into income.

Ardena Host is the easiest way for car owners in Kenya to list their vehicles and earn from rentals — on your schedule, at your price, with verified renters.

Whether you have one car sitting idle on weekends or a fleet you manage full-time, Ardena gives you the tools to run a rental business from your phone. Set your rates, manage availability, accept or decline bookings, and get paid directly to M-Pesa.

WHY HOSTS CHOOSE ARDENA

• You set the price. No fixed rates, no surge controls. You know your car and your market.
• You set the schedule. Block out dates anytime. Rent it for a day, a weekend, or a month.
• Verified renters only. Every renter is ID-verified before they can book.
• Direct M-Pesa payouts. Earnings hit your account on a predictable schedule. No waiting weeks for international transfers.
• Built for Kenya. Designed around how Kenyans actually rent cars — from estate runs to upcountry trips to long-term corporate rentals.

KEY FEATURES

• Quick listing setup — add your car, photos, and pricing in under 10 minutes
• Booking management — view, accept, or decline requests with one tap
• In-app messaging — communicate with renters before and during trips
• Trip tracking — see pickup, drop-off, and trip status in real time
• Earnings dashboard — track your income, upcoming payouts, and booking history
• Push notifications — never miss a booking request or renter message
• Multiple car support — list as many vehicles as you want from one account

HOW IT WORKS

1. Create your host profile and verify your ID
2. List your car with photos, pricing, and availability
3. Accept booking requests from verified renters
4. Hand over the keys, then collect them back at the end of the trip
5. Get paid to M-Pesa — automatically

WHO IT'S FOR

Ardena Host is built for:

• Individual car owners who want to earn from an underused vehicle
• Small fleet operators ready to move off WhatsApp and spreadsheets
• Side-hustlers turning one car into a real income stream
• Established car hire businesses looking for better booking infrastructure

ABOUT PAYMENTS

All rental payments are handled outside the app, between renters and hosts via verified payment rails (M-Pesa and bank transfer). Ardena facilitates the booking, verification, and trip management — payouts go directly to you.
