Things to Know

What is GoPocket?

As users of other services ourselves, we understand how it feels when we have to wait 10 to 14 working days just to get that refund. Or God forbid, getting passed from one customer representative to another while trying to get our money back.

Introducing GoPocket, GoCar’s latest feature in which you can buy GoPocket points for your One Way Trips bookings and check for your refunds and reimbursements. Don’t worry, the refund and reimbursement process is lightning quick. 😉

We also know you have questions for us so check out our answers below.

Just how lightning-quick is the refund and reimbursement process?

Well, you can expect all refunds and reimbursements (petrol/car wash) to be transferred to your account in the form of GoPocket points in just one business day

Speaking of refunds, if I were to cancel my booking, how will I be refunded and what am I supposed to do?

If you have a change in plans, the best time to let us know is 48 hours before your booking starts. Here’s why: 
Cancelled 48 hours before booking start time Users will be refunded with points equivalent to the total booking fee + 6%(SST) Example: User paid RM99 + SST for a booking and wants to cancel 48 hours before booking start time. User will be refunded with points equivalent to the value of RM99 + SST.
Cancelled 48 to 12 hours before booking start time Points equivalent to 50% of total booking fee + 6% (SST). Example: User paid RM99 + SST for a booking and wants to cancel 16 hours before booking start time. User will be refunded with points equivalent to the value of 50% of RM99 + SST of 50% x RM99.
Cancelled less than 12 hours before booking start time Strictly no refund
And don’t forget to drop us an email at hello@gocar.my with the subject line “[URGENT] Booking Cancellation“, along with your booking details such as your selected GoCar location, booking start date and time, and booking end date and time.

So how do I get these GoPocket points?

There are two ways – you can either buy or earn them. More information below.
