None that I know of.
Acceptance of the First Premier credit card at car rental companies can vary by location and rental agency. While many major car rental companies accept a wide range of credit cards, it's best to check directly with the specific rental company for their payment policies. Additionally, some locations may require a deposit or have restrictions on using certain types of cards. Always confirm with the rental agency to avoid any issues at the time of pickup.
Most major rental car companies require drivers to be at least 25 years of age and have a major credit card.
Most major car rental companies require renters to be at least 25 years of age. Try looking for non-major rental companies (smaller independent rental companies). Some of the major car rental companies will allow under 25 driving for military traveling under official government orders. A copy of those orders should be presented at the time of rental.
In the United States, most rental car places do not require a cash deposit - unless your history with them is dismal. Rental car companies prefer having a credit card number on file - this allows them to add additional charges to your bill if you don't adhere to the contract you signed. For instance, if the car comes back dinged or dented, the rental car company can charge the repair cost to your credit card number. If you refuse to pay, that's between you and the credit card company - the rental car company will be paid by the credit card company unless you protest the charge as fradulent.
Car rentals require a credit card for payment because it serves as a form of security for the rental company in case of any damages or additional charges incurred during the rental period. It also helps verify the renter's identity and ability to pay for the rental.
If you would like to rent a car but do not own a credit card you may be able to pay on a debit card instead. Rental companies understand that not everyone has a credit card and that this does not mean they have bad credit. All companies are different so it is best to check with them if they take payment via a debit card.
Yes, Car Rental Companies accept Secured Credit Cards. There are two types of cards. "Secured" and "Prepaid". Prepaid cards will be accepted at rental companies (or will be treated like a debit card). SECURE cards on the other hand are not like a credit card. The rental company has no way of knowing rather the card is secured or not.All secured cards say "debit", and have a Visa, Mastercard logo, etc. However, as with any credit card (secured or su-secured), they will take a deposit out on the card that covers the rental fee for your expected term. This will not be "charged", but "held" to your card until you return it, at such a time you can choose to authorize the payment to go through or pay the balance with a debit card, allowing the hold on the credit card to release.
There are several options for applying a credit card. One can find credit card applications at the bank, mail or internet. Credit card companies require a proof of income before being approved for credit.
A good thing is to have one credit card, whether it be a Visa or a Mastercard. I say this because if you ever get into a jam most rental car companies will not take a debit card, it must be an actual credit card.
Yes, you can use a debit card to rent a car through Kayak, but it depends on the rental car company's policies. Some companies accept debit cards, while others may require a credit card for the security deposit. It's important to check the specific terms and conditions of the rental company you choose. Always confirm directly with the rental agency for their payment options and requirements.
Different credit card companies have different requirements for businesses wishing to obtain a credit account. Some credit card companies will require proof of the business's existence, while others will allow you to simply apply using the company's name.
No, car rental companies do not have the legal right to check your credit without your explicit "written" consent. They can only charge to your credit card. They also have no right to do a background check. That said, many car rental companies will provide you with a form for you to sign, giving them written consent to check your credit history, especially if you are not from the agency's local area.
