What is Yoshi?

Yoshi delivers gas and car maintenance services directly to you, wherever you are parked! We’ll wash your car, fill up your tank, swap your wiper blades, and more! Just tell us where your car is parked and we’ll come to you.

What are your safety protocols?

All of our field technicians are hazmat endorsed, have gone through background checks, and passed drug tests. Each Yoshi truck is outfitted with an industry-standard spill kit. We also have a contract with Clean Harbors should there be a spill, though we have never had to use it. Our policies were developed to meet the standards and comply with the policies required by large companies and property owners, including ExxonMobil, General Motors, and Cushman & Wakefield.

How does Yoshi work?

Most of our customers schedule fuel deliveries once a week and add on additional services as needed. We have a recommended schedule for many services including car washes, wiper blades, maintenance, and more, that you can adjust to work best for you.

Does someone take my car away?

Your car stays exactly where it is. We come to where you are parked with our gas truck and fill you up. All we ask of you is that you pop your gas flap before you leave your car.

But how exactly does it work?

You download the app and input all of your details along with your vehicle details. You then select the day and time window (must be 4 hours) that you would like to be filled up. Our highly trained Field Technician will come by in our gas truck and fill you up/ conduct your other services. You will get a text message when all services are complete along with images and your receipt.

Why do you need a 4 hour window?

Many things could affect the time in which it takes our driver to reach your vehicle such as traffic and weather etc so we ask for that time frame so we can ensure we service your vehicle.

Do you need extra space to conduct your services?

The beauty of our service is that we can mostly conduct them in conventional parking spaces/lots and residential driveways.

What will this cost me?

Yoshi will cost you $40 a month in membership (or $384 if you get the annual subscription) and this covers up to six fillups a month with no delivery fee (additional fillups are available to you but will incur a fee). After that the gas is price matched to the LOWEST Top Tier™ within a 2 mile radius of where you are parked and the price of our non-gas services are competitive. You can find out the exact price for your area by downloading the app today.

How does payment work?

Once you enter your credit card information in the Yoshi app (Profile > Payment), your order can be added to our route for service! You will receive a confirmation text when service is complete as well as an email receipt. Yoshi uses Stripe for easy, encrypted card transactions. Stripe is an industry-leading payment processor trusted by thousands of companies.

Why is there a charge on my bank statement when I haven't received service?

When Yoshi customers enter their credit card information, Yoshi will issue a $1 verification charge that is immediately refunded. The evening before a customer's service, Yoshi will issue a larger authorization hold (often $60) from which the customer's final amount will be captured.

What is an authorization hold?

Similar to hotels and gas stations, Yoshi delivers varying amounts of goods and services before collecting payment. Like those industries, Yoshi will issue an authorization hold (in most cases, a $60 hold) before dispatching a truck or van to fulfill service to our customers.

What happens to the hold after I receive the service?

Most of Yoshi's authorization holds will be $60. Once a customer’s service is completed for the day, Yoshi will capture the final amount from the authorization hold and release the remainder. In the event a customer cancels their service, the entire hold will be released. In both cases, the released amount will fall off the customer’s bank statement in 2-3 days and only the amount captured by Yoshi will remain. In the event that a customer’s final amount is greater than $60, we will simply capture the whole $60 and then issue a 2nd charge to capture the remainder of the transaction.

Do you issue holds even if I have a gas discount?

Yes, we will still issue an authorization hold the night before service, even in the event that a customer has a discount for their gas or non-gas services. Yoshi allows customer to schedule additional services like windshield cleanings, engine cleaner, wiper replacements, etc leading up to their service, so an authorization is still necessary for Yoshi to fulfill service with confidence of payment.

What services do you offer?

We help drivers across the country to keep moving with a variety of services that help them be proactive car owners. Don’t worry about those warning lights ever again! All services are performed by our field techs on site. Our services include: Fuel Delivery, Car Wash, Car Detail, Engine Cleaner, Tire Check, Windshield Fluid, Windshield Treatment, Wiper Blades.

How do I check if you service my location?

Simply download the app and enter your address to see if we service your specific area. Don’t see your location? Get in touch and request your city!

What type of gas do you provide and how do you determine your prices?

We are proud to pump Top Tier™ gas which is specially formulated for efficiency and helps you get better gas mileage. It is available to Yoshi members in regular and premium and you can set your preference in the Yoshi app. Our technology matches the lowest price of gas based on stations in a two-mile radius of your fill-up address.

How do you find vehicles and access my gas tank?

On Yoshi service days, you will receive a reminder text message in the morning. When you drop a pin drop in our app, it helps us locate where your vehicle is parked. If your vehicle has a locking gas door, we ask you to leave it slightly ajar when parking your car before we come by. Our field technician will close it when the fill-up is complete and will send a confirmation text and receipt. If the fuel tank requires any special access, our field technician will text you to make sure your tank gets filled!

How does a corporate program work?

In a corporate program, Yoshi memberships are covered by your company as an office perk and offered to staff as an on-site service.

How does the program work?

The Program has 5 main Tiers – Mint, Silver, Gold, Platinum, True Blue. As you advance to the next main Program Tier, the faster you can earn Points to unlock Rewards.

What are the program tiers & rewards?

How do I earn stars?

Customers earn 1 star for each dollar spent. Additional services will also earn customers extra points:
1☆ per dollar spent on gas
2☆ per dollar spent on wash/detail
3☆ per dollar spent on power-ups (add-on services)

How do I qualify for each program tier?

Customers achieve status based on their balance of unexpired points. A customer's status indicates what rewards tier (silver, gold, platinum, true blue) they are in. Users are upgraded to the next tier as soon as the number of points they have earned in the current earnings period (6 month window) exceeds the threshold for that tier.

How do I redeem my 10¢ per gallon rewards?

Every customer will be able to redeem their balance of earned points toward rewards. To start with, a single reward will be available: a 10¢ per gallon one-time benefit that will cost 200 points. You will see this benefit appear in the Yoshi app. Simply click on it to apply it to your next Yoshi order.

When will my points be available?

Points are granted each time an invoice is paid.

How do I check my member account status?

You can check your membership level and account status by heading to the Yoshi app and clicking on “Rewards”.

How do I see what rewards I have available?

This email must be sent within forty-five (45) days after the alleged purchase or action took place. We are not responsible for late notifications regarding purchases or actions not being credited to a Member account.

Does my membership ever expire?

While your membership may remain open, points will expire at the end of an earnings period, a period of inactivity, a period in which a Member earns no Points, makes no qualifying purchases, takes no qualifying actions, and redeems no Points. The program enrollment will end (and points will be lost) whenever a customers Yoshi Membership is cancelled.

How do tier upgrades / downgrades work?

Customers will get upgraded when they achieve the points needed for the next status. Customers will see the upgrade in the app and will be sent an email at the time of their upgrade. Customers may also be downgraded at the end of each earnings period if they didn’t achieve the points needed to remain in their existing tier.
