Turo's trip earnings CSV has one row per reservation and about 47 columns. Here's what each group means and which ones to actually use.
Turo's earnings CSV is one row per reservation. The column that matters most is the last one, Total earnings, which is what that trip paid you. Almost everything between the car details on the left and that total on the right is a line item that explains how the trip got there: the trip price, discounts, delivery, Extras, fees and reimbursements.
If you only use five columns, use Vehicle id (or VIN), Trip start, Trip status, Trip days and Total earnings. Those give you booked days and earnings per car per month, which is most of what tells you whether a car is paying its way.
Where do you download the Turo earnings CSV?
On the web, open the host menu and go to Earnings. Turo's help center says the download button sits under your total earnings to date at the top of the page.
The file we've seen hosts upload is named like trip_earnings_export_<date>.csv. Turo doesn't publish a column guide for it, and it has changed the layout before, so treat the list below as a recent version, not a promise. If your file has a column we don't cover, check one of your trip receipts in Turo for the same reservation.
What are the columns in the Turo earnings CSV?
A recent trip earnings export has 47 columns. They fall into five groups.
Trip and car details
| Column | What it tells you |
|---|---|
| Reservation ID | Turo's ID for the trip. Unique per row, so use it to spot duplicates |
| Guest | The guest's name |
| Vehicle | Your listing text. This is often where the plate shows up |
| Vehicle name | Make, model and year. Not unique if you run two of the same car |
| Vehicle id | Turo's ID for the listing |
| VIN | The car's VIN, when it's filled in |
| Trip start, Trip end | Date and time the trip began and ended |
| Pickup location, Return location | Where the car was handed over and returned |
| Trip status | Completed, Booked, In-progress, Guest cancellation or Host cancellation |
Don't group by Vehicle name: two 2021 Corollas both say "Toyota Corolla 2021". Use Vehicle id or VIN. And the file includes trips that haven't happened yet. Booked and In-progress rows can change, so leave them out of last month's numbers.
Usage
| Column | What it tells you |
|---|---|
| Check-in odometer, Check-out odometer | Miles on the car at the start and end of the trip |
| Distance traveled | Miles driven on the trip |
| Trip days | Billable days for the trip |
These are your wear numbers. Every mile here is tires, brakes and oil you'll pay for later.
Trip price and discounts
| Column | What it tells you |
|---|---|
| Trip price | What you charged for the booked days |
| Boost price | A separate pricing line, when it applies |
| 3-day, 1-week, 2-week, 3-week, 1-month, 2-month, 3-month discount | Trip-length discounts |
| Non-refundable discount | The non-refundable rate discount |
| Early bird discount | Discount for booking ahead |
| Host promotional credit | Promo credit tied to the trip |
Turo's help center says trip-length discounts are on by default for new listings, with minimums of 3% for three days, 5% for a week, 10% for two weeks, 15% for three weeks and 20% for a month. Every listing also offers a 10% non-refundable discount on trips booked four or more days ahead, and hosts can't turn it off. Discounts stack: the length discount comes off first, then the non-refundable discount is taken off the reduced price.
If your Trip price looks lower than your daily rate times the days, this group is usually why. Add these columns up for a month to see what discounts cost you.
Delivery, Extras and fees
| Column | What it tells you |
|---|---|
| Delivery | Delivery charges |
| Extras | Add-ons like a child seat or prepaid fuel |
| Excess distance | Charge for miles over the trip limit |
| Additional usage | Charge for extra use beyond what was booked |
| Late fee | Charge for a late return |
| Improper return fee | Charge for returning the car the wrong way |
| Cancellation fee | What you got when a guest cancelled |
| Airport operations fee, Airport parking credit | Airport-related charges and credits |
| Other fees | Anything that didn't fit elsewhere. Can be negative |
Per Turo's earnings and host share page, US hosts earn Delivery and Extras at the percentage set by their earnings plan, not 100%. In the nine variable host share cities, late return, additional distance and additional usage fees also follow the trip's variable share. We covered those cities in Turo variable host share.
Reimbursements and the total
| Column | What it tells you |
|---|---|
| Tolls & tickets | Toll and ticket reimbursements |
| On-trip EV charging, Post-trip EV charging | Charging reimbursements |
| Smoking, Cleaning | Smoking and cleaning fees |
| Fines (paid to host) | Fines passed through to you |
| Gas reimbursement, Gas fee | Refueling charges |
| Sales tax | Sales tax on the trip |
| Total earnings | What the trip paid you, all in |
Turo says hosts keep 100% of approved reimbursements for tolls, tickets, refueling and EV charging, and 100% of approved cleaning and smoking fees.
Don't count these as profit. A $14 toll reimbursement paid back a $14 toll. Count it as income without the matching expense and the car looks better than it is.
On sales tax: Turo says that since December 15, 2023, host earnings are shown as the amount earned minus any VAT or sales tax collected for the trip, for both new and past trips.
Why don't the columns add up to Total earnings?
Sometimes they won't, at least not the way you expect. Turo doesn't document whether each line is shown before or after your host share, or which sign each discount carries. Before you build a spreadsheet on this file, compare one completed trip's row to its receipt in Turo.
You'll also see negative totals, written like - $6.06. Keep them. They're money that left your account.
What can you actually learn from the file?
Here's an example month for one car. These are made-up numbers to show the math, not averages or data.
| Completed trip | Trip days | Miles | Total earnings |
|---|---|---|---|
| Trip 1 | 3 | 330 | $171.40 |
| Trip 2 | 2 | 185 | $118.20 |
| Trip 3 | 5 | 610 | $268.75 |
| Trip 4 | 4 | 290 | $221.60 |
| Trip 5 | 3 | 240 | $166.05 |
| Total | 17 | 1,655 | $946.00 |
From that you get four numbers worth tracking every month:
- Booked days: 17 of 30, or 57% of the month.
- Earnings per booked day: $946.00 ÷ 17 = $55.65.
- Earnings per trip: $946.00 ÷ 5 = $189.20.
- Miles per booked day: 1,655 ÷ 17 = 97 miles. If wear runs, say, $0.08 a mile, that's 1,655 × $0.08 = $132.40 of wear this month.
Earnings per booked day is the number to plug into break-even. If this car has $530 a month in fixed costs, it needs $530 ÷ $55.65 = 9.5, so 10 booked days just to cover those, before cleaning and wear. We walked through the full version in how many days a Turo car needs to be booked to break even.
Common mistakes with the Turo CSV
- Counting future trips. Filter Trip status to Completed for past months.
- Dropping cancellations. A Guest cancellation row with a Cancellation fee is income. Keep it, but don't count its days as booked.
- Grouping by car name. Use Vehicle id or VIN.
- Importing the same file twice. Each download covers earnings to date, so a new file overlaps the old one. Reservation ID is the way to skip trips you already have.
- Treating reimbursements as profit. They pay back a cost. Match them to the expense.
The bottom line
- One row is one reservation. Total earnings is what that trip paid you.
- Group by Vehicle id or VIN, filter to Completed, and use Trip days for booked days.
- The middle columns explain the total. Reimbursements aren't profit.
- Check one row against its Turo receipt before you trust a spreadsheet built on the file.
If you'd rather not do this by hand, FleetEarnings imports the Turo earnings CSV, matches trips to cars by VIN, skips duplicate trips when you upload a newer file, and shows income, expenses, net and ROI per car. You can also run your own numbers in the Turo profit calculator.
