Steps

The ultimate Poppy guide

Discover all you need to know before starting your first trip or just as a reminder.

1. Park above ground
Always park your car above ground. If you park underground, the connection with the car will be lost. 💔 This ensures that you can no longer open or close the car and then we have to come by to get the car, which entails costs.

2. First 30 seconds are free
The first 30 seconds are completely free from the moment you open the car. 🤑 You can use these 30 seconds to properly adjust your mirrors and seat and to start your ride.

3. Close the car after getting out
Always check that all doors and windows are closed. If there is still an open window or open door (the trunk is also a door!), you cannot close the car correctly or put it in ‘Stopover’. ❌ Only click on ‘Stopover’ or ‘End trip’ after you have left the car and all the windows and doors are closed.

4. Let the vehicle wake up
Do you know that feeling in the morning where you want to stay in your bed? 😴 Our vehicles have that too! You often cannot open the vehicle immediately after you have reserved it. The application must first connect to the vehicle. This process can take a few minutes. Usually the vehicle is awake after one minute. From the moment that the ‘unlock icon’ to open the vehicle in your application is completely red (as red as the cancellation button), you can open the car and start your trip. 📲

5. 15 minutes reserved for you
When you book a vehicle, it’s reserved only for you for 15 minutes. ⏳ That means that other users cannot see the vehicle in their application and therefore cannot open it. If you have not opened the reserved vehicle within 15 minutes, the booking will be canceled and the vehicle will be available again for other users. ⌛But don't forget that you can extend the reservation of your vehicle however this will be accompanied by additional costs depending on the duration of the reservation. How does it work? Book your car as usual, press the little button next to the 15 minute free timer and add the number of minutes you need.

6. Never share your account
You may never share your account with anyone else. 🚫 From the moment someone else drives with your account, that person is not insured and he/she will have to pay for all costs in the event of damage or an accident. Your account will be suspended immediately if we notice this!

7. Free parking at Interparking
No need to have a parking card anymore. Thanks to the license plate recognition, the barrier will open automatically for all Poppy cars. Easy right ?! ⚠ This only applies to the Interparking shown in our app with a 🅿️.

8. Stay in Belgium
You can drive throughout Belgium with a Poppy, but driving abroad is not permitted. 🇧🇪 P.S. Breda, Eindhoven and Maastricht also belong to foreign countries.

9. The SKODA e-CITIGO & SEAT Mii don't make noise at start-up
These two minis are fully electric.⚡ Therefore, they have a battery instead of an engine and, thus, make no noise while driving. 🔇 You will only hear a little sound when starting up. When you hear this, the car has started correctly. Watch the signals too.

10. Park for free at public parking spaces
With Poppy, you can park for free anywhere in public parking. Make no mistake with private parking. 🅿 If you park in private parking and you receive a fine, it is for you. Obviously, you are also not allowed to park in a parking space for the disabled. ♿ Check the map carefully before leaving your car to be sure you are in the Poppy zone. The street is dark grey? You can't park over there.

🟠🔴The orange and red parking zones are not free for your Poppy vehicle.You must put a ticket on the windscreen if you want to avoid a fine. 🟠🔴

11. Reserving a car for 24 hours costs € 90
You know the Poppy pricing system: you pay 0,36 euros per minute when you drive. If you put the car in ‘Stopover’, you only pay 0,30 euros per minute and the car remains reserved for you. If you want to use the car for a whole day, you can reserve it for 24 hours. 📆 This will cost you 90 euros. Keep using the same car and do not take another.

12. The SEAT Ibiza, the OPEL Corsa & the VW Polo are the intercity cars

This means you can take them from Antwerp to Brussels and make a stop in Mechelen. Planning to travel? These 3 cars are also the ones you'll drive to the airports: Zaventem, Antwerp & Charleroi. 🛫

You don’t have to do anything special for the daily rate. Reserve a car as usual and return it to the home zone when your trip is finished. 📱 The cheapest rate always applies and even if you use the car for around 20 hours, you’ll pay 90 euros. After 24 hours you will again enter the minute rate until you cross the daily rate threshold a second time.

Pay attention! 200 km are included in the price for each ride. If you drive more than 200 km, you pay 0,25 euros per additional kilometer above 200. 🌐

12. The SEAT Ibiza and the OPEL Corsa are the intercity cars
This means you can take it in Antwerp and leave it in Brussels and the other way around. Planning to travel? They are the cars that you can take to reach the 3 airports (Zaventem, Antwerp & Brussels South Charleroi).
