Cityhop for International Travellers

🌍 Can I use an International Driver’s Licence?

Yes! As long as it’s: In English and a full licence (not learner or restricted).

📱 Can I use my home country mobile number?

Yes, if your phone can receive SMS in New Zealand. If not, you’ll need a NZ number for verification.

💳 Can I pay with an overseas card?

Absolutely! Any valid debit or credit card works. Your bank sets the exchange rate at the time of payment.

🛡 How does insurance work for international drivers?

Insurance is included in every booking. If there’s damage, we’ll contact you by email. Excess payment is usually straightforward—even if you’ve returned home.

Extra Tips:

• Age: Drivers must be 21+ with a full licence.
• Address: You can use your home country address when signing up.
• Book ahead: Yes, you can book before arriving in NZ.
