Never miss a license renewal again! You can now add and manage driver license expiry dates, with separate expiry dates for each vehicle type. This new feature is available on the ‘Drivers’ page in the web portal, ensuring you stay on top of all your compliance requirements.

🚛 Hubo Meter
For those managing big rigs and trailers, you’ll soon be able to choose between servicing and RUC calculations via the odometer or HUBO meter.
🔄 Tyre Rotation Reminders
Set reminders for tyre rotations at intervals of 9,000km, 10,000km, or 13,000km. This feature will offer a dropdown menu for easy setup, ensuring your tyres are always in top condition.
📋 Driver Checklists
Create and customise inspection checklists directly in the web portal. These checklists can be displayed on your driver’s app, covering everything from pre-start checks to monthly inspections.
Coming Soon to the App
⏱️ Odometer Reading
We’re adding an odometer field for petrol vehicles, making it easier to track mileage and manage servicing schedules.
🔗 Driver Linking
Share vehicle details seamlessly with another profile. Drivers can easily accept and send vehicle linking invites, making it simpler to manage shared vehicles and keep track of RUCs and service intervals. Currently available on the web portal, this feature will soon be on the app.
🛣️ RUC Circle Relocation
We’re moving the RUC circle to be the first thing you see on the app, making it more accessible. No more searching below for this crucial information.
Fleet Premium Trials
If you’ve added your vehicles via our standard method, they’re not connected to the NZTA for updates. If manually updating your WOF/COF, REGO, and RUCs is a hassle, email with ‘Premium Trial,’ to steph@bonnet.co.nz and we’ll connect all your cars to the NZTA for a 14-day premium trial. We’ll also refresh all the data across your fleet, ensuring WOF/COF/REGO and RUCs are accurate.
Housekeeping
🛰️ GPS Tracking for Fleets
Interested in tracking your fleet via GPS? We’d love to chat about your requirements. Email ‘GPS BETA’ to steph@bonnet.co.nz get the ball rolling.
Invoice Consolidation Update
We understand that being charged per vehicle is a hassle. That’s why we’re switching to consolidated invoicing! Say goodbye to individual charges and hello to a streamlined, single invoice. Want to switch to consolidated billing before the official launch? Just email “Invoice Consolidation” to steph@bonnet.co.nz and we’ll set it up early for you!
💸 Referral Bonus
Know a fleet with 10+ vehicles that could use better vehicle compliance management? Refer them to us, and if they sign up, we’ll send you a $100 cash bonus!
Lastly, if you’re craving a feature we haven’t mentioned, let us know, and we’ll add it to our list.
Stay warm and happy motoring!
