Pitch Deck Rentaro

1.

2. Rentaro investment highlights

Market tailwinds + early traction
Romania’s car rental market is €250M+ and still largely offline
−Fragmented supply creates room for a digital category leader
CEE car-sharing is a €4.7B market growing 15–18% annually (2025)
−Strong regional tailwind as consumer behavior shifts to digital access
Early traction proves demand: 2,400+ active users in a few months
–Clear signal for a simpler, trusted booking experience
Supply is ramping fast with 300+ cars listed
–More selection drives conversion and repeat usage
An asset-light marketplace model scales with attractive unit economics
–Take rate plus add-on services increases contribution margin
Built for expansion into P2P with the same trust and payments layer
–Verification, payments, support, and GPS tracking already in place

3. Cars sit idle ~95% of the time

Introducing our digital
marketplace for car
rentals
• Renting a car in Romania is still manual and fragmented: calls, WhatsApp,
paperwork, unclear pricing
• Fleets lose revenue from low utilization and inconsistent demand
• Customers want instant availability + transparent total price + trust
Then: expand into peer-topeer car sharing using the
same trust & checkout layer.
The market exists, but the experience is stuck offline.

Go-to-market (how we scale)
Supply acquisition (Fleets)
Outbound + referrals to local operators
(10–80 cars)
• Partner portal onboarding in 10
minutes
• Standard templates: pricing, policies,
check-in/out
• Activation playbook to drive first
bookings fast
Demand acquisition (Guests)
SEO for destination + airport intent
(high-conversion pages)
• Performance marketing with CAC
discipline
• Partnerships pipeline: travel
agencies, hotels, airlines
• Retention levers: saved searches,
price alerts, rebooking in 1 click
Growth loop (what compounds)
1) More active cars in-city → better
selection
2) Better selection → higher
conversion
3) Higher conversion → lower
CAC and stronger repeat behavior
4) More demand → partners add
cars / new cities
5) Data improves pricing & risk
decisions → stronger margins over
time
