Getaround Inc will pay $950,000 to Washington, D.C. and revise its business practices after allegations that it misrepresented the benefits and nature of its car sharing services and failed to pay city sales taxes, officials said on Friday.

San Francisco-based online company had operated without a license in the U.S capital, District of Columbia Attorney General Karl Racine said in a statement.

Customers can use Getaround to rent vehicles by the hour or day from individual owners who make vehicles available through Getaround. Racine's office began investigating Getaround in 2020 after it received reports of increased thefts of cars listed on Getaround.
