Post a sealed-bid RFQ and let verified providers compete, or pick the exact vehicles you need from a verified fleet and rent directly. Either way your payment sits in escrow until a PIN confirms the vehicle arrived.
Two ways to source, one set of protections. Tender your need to the market or rent directly from a verified fleet. Pay only when the vehicle arrives.
Tender it as a sealed-bid RFQ
One structured request reaches every verified provider with matching fleet at once.
Or rent directly
Know the vehicle you want? Browse verified fleets, send a direct request, get a confirmation.
Sealed bids, no collusion
Provider identities are hidden during evaluation. You compare price, trust score and tier.
KYB-verified providers only
Only organisations that passed business, identity, insurance and licensing checks can list or bid.
Escrow on every contract
Your money is held in escrow and released only when a 6-digit PIN confirms handover.
One record for audit
Request, bids, award, contract, handover and payment sit on one timestamped record. Donor and finance ready.

Not every vehicle need is a tender. Anqelba Car Rental gives you a sealed-bid RFQ when you want competition, and direct rental when you already know the vehicle you want. Both carry the same protections.
When you want the market to compete for your contract.
Best for: Recurring contracts, larger quantities, donor-compliant procurement.
When you already know what you need and want it confirmed quickly.
Best for: Short-notice needs, single vehicles, repeat bookings with a provider you trust.
Whether a contract starts as a sealed-bid RFQ or a direct rental request, it ends the same way: one contract, escrow, and a PIN-confirmed handover.
Describe the need (vehicle class, quantity, term, location) and open it to sealed bids. Or browse verified fleets and send a direct rental request for the exact vehicles you want.
For an RFQ, verified providers submit sealed prices. You see each bid's price, trust score and tier, but no names until you award. For a direct request, the provider accepts, proposes changes or declines.
The contract is created and your payment is held in escrow. At handover a 6-digit PIN confirms the vehicle arrived as agreed. Only then is the money released to the provider.
Submit business registration, identity, vehicle ownership, insurance and licensing documents. We review them before you can list vehicles or bid. One-time setup.
Open RFQs that match your fleet appear in your dashboard for sealed bidding. Businesses that already know what they want send you direct rental requests to accept or decline.
Hand over the vehicle, enter the PIN with the business, and the escrowed funds are released to your wallet and settled on the platform's cycle. No chasing invoices.

Verified IdentityFunds are held in escrow and released only when a 6-digit PIN confirms handover, then settled through a double-entry ledger. The business keeps control until the vehicle arrives.
Funds ProtectedSealed bids prevent collusion. No provider sees competitor pricing during the active bidding window.
Fair MarketplaceEvery bid, award, handover and payment event is recorded with a timestamp against the contract. One record for procurement, finance and donors.
Full Audit TrailAnqelba Car Rental is a B2B vehicle rental marketplace based in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. Businesses, NGOs and government agencies source vehicles from KYB-verified providers either through sealed-bid RFQs or by renting directly. Every contract is escrow-protected and confirmed by a PIN at handover.
Any registered business, NGO or government agency that needs vehicles can register as a business. Providers must be registered companies or individuals with vehicles they own, and must pass identity, business, vehicle ownership, insurance and licensing verification before they can list or bid.
An RFQ (request for quotation) is a tender: you describe the need and verified providers submit sealed bids that you compare and award. A direct rental is for when you already know the vehicle you want: you browse verified fleets, send a request for specific vehicles, and the provider confirms. Both end in the same contract, escrow and PIN handover.
Providers cannot see each other's prices, and you see each bid's price, trust score and tier but not the provider's name until you award. Blind bidding is always on; it cannot be switched off. You can award a request to one provider or split it across several.
Yes. When a contract is created your payment is held in escrow. It is released to the provider only after a 6-digit PIN, generated for that contract, is entered at handover to confirm the vehicle arrived as agreed. If a provider does not deliver, the money does not move.
No. Requests can be short term (up to 30 days) or long term, and a single day is fine. You can post a one-off request, run a recurring contract, or rent directly for a specific date range.
No. Posting an RFQ or sending a direct rental request is free for businesses. There is no subscription and no listing fee. The platform earns a commission from the provider on each completed contract.
Every provider passes business, identity, vehicle ownership, insurance and licensing verification before they can list or bid. Each provider also carries a trust score and tier that you see beside every bid, based on verification and on completion, on-time and no-show history.
Sedans, SUVs, minibuses, pickups and other commercial vehicles, depending on which verified providers have listed them. Availability grows as more providers are onboarded.
We are launching in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia first. Other Ethiopian cities will follow once Addis is running well. If you are outside Addis you can still register, and we will let you know when your area opens.
