Why it shows up like this
Unreviewed registry note: A statement entry showing GETAROUND* CAR SHARE indicates a digital carsharing transaction from Getaround, Inc. Getaround operates an app-based peer-to-peer and fleet carsharing network that lets drivers reserve and pick up nearby vehicles by the hour or by the day without visiting a traditional rental counter. Similar to vehicle-sharing platforms like Zipcar or Turo, access is managed directly through proprietary in-car hardware connected to the Getaround smartphone app.
Unreviewed registry note: This billing descriptor represents a Getaround On-Demand Carsharing Rental charge. The total amount reflects several combined trip expenses: base hourly reservation rates, platform booking fees, mandatory protection plans, and applicable municipal carsharing taxes. Charges can also appear days after a reservation ends as post-trip adjustments, which include automated toll transponder reconciliations, refueling surcharges, extra mileage fees, or penalties for late vehicle returns.
