Easirent was founded in 1999, by the northwest-based Hanley family. Over these two decades, Easirent has serviced more than 2 million customers in the UK and influenced the landscape of low-cost car rental by bringing technology improvements to customers such as self-checkouts and automated check-ins for safe and contactless rentals. In 2021, Leasys, a subsidiary of FCA Bank, acquired ER Capital LTD (Easirent). Today, Easirent has over 2,500 vehicles and is one of the most dynamic companies in the short-term rental sector in the UK with the recent introduction of innovative products like CityCar247, which allows for a completely digitised customer journey and contact-free rental.
