Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about compliance, features, and getting started with YooDrive.

How do consent & legal logs work?
YooDrive automatically captures and stores all required consent forms from students, including photo & Video publishing permissions (marketing), data sharing & processing consent, and verified review permissions.
Every interaction is timestamped and stored securely, ensuring full GDPR and DMCC compliance. You can view, download, or send consent records automatically through your dashboard.
Is YooDrive free?
Yes! YooDrive is completely free to join and use for basic features, including profile creation, booking management, compliance tools, Student messaging, cancellation protection, review management, and New PDI/Student enquiries.
We only charge small transaction fees on payments processed through our system (1.5% + 20p) and optional premium member features like enhanced directory listings & advanced Ai student lesson planner, and analytics.
How do vouchers and fundraising work?
Students and families can raise capital to help fund driving lessons with you (similar to GoFundMe). They can also purchase and accept gift vouchers. These funds are credited to their balance account on the platform and deducted and sent to you after each booking you create and administer. All voucher sales are automatically tracked, and funds are transferred to your account within two business days.
What makes YooDrive DVSA compliant?
We work directly with DVSA compliance experts to ensure our platform meets all Code of Practice requirements.
This includes proper record-keeping, register verification, DBS/PVG status, Data Controller ICO Registration, student data protection, transparent pricing displays, and monitoring of professional standards. We provide automated compliance reports for DVSA checks.
How does the PDI mentorship program work?
Our system matches experienced ADIs and Training Schools with PDIs based on location, availability, and teaching style. You set your mentorship rate and availability, and we handle all the matching and payment processing. You receive ongoing passive revenue from YooDrive while helping new instructors develop their professional skills.
Simply link them with your enquiries (driven by your reviews) and receive revenue from each booking the PDI creates.
Can students book lessons directly?
Yes! Students can view your real-time availability and book lessons directly with you while chatting through your YooDrive profile.
You maintain full control - you set available time slots, require approval for bookings, block out time in your diary, and set different lesson types and pricing.
Standard Lessons - Intensive Courses - PDI Mentoring/Training (passive income after sponsorship)
How are reviews verified?
To avoid fake reviews, all reviews published come from students and PDIs who have consented, booked and completed lessons with you via YooDrive.
For Security, we verify the student's phone number and email, confirm the lesson took place, and only then allow the review.
This ensures authentic feedback and builds trust with potential students and with the general public.
What happens to my data if I leave?
You own all your data - student records, lesson history, reviews, and financial records.
If you ever decide to leave YooDrive, we provide a complete data export in standard formats.
We'll also delete your data from our systems (which includes reviews collated) within 30 days if requested, as per GDPR requirements.
Do you provide customer support?
Yes! We offer email support (kris@yoodrive.co.uk), live chat during business hours, and phone support for premium members.
We also offer comprehensive help documentation, video tutorials, and regularly host webinars for new users.
Reach out and let us handle all your requirements.
