• Why need book a car in Renta?

  To book a car on Renta, you must create a Renta account, be an eligible age to drive and have a valid driver’s license, and get approved to drive on Renta. When you’re booking your first trip, you’ll go through a quick approval process by entering your driver’s license and some other information. In most cases, you’ll get approved immediately, and you’ll be set for all future road trips.

• Do I need my own insurance?

  No, you don’t need personal insurance coverage to book a car on Renta. When booking a car, you’ll choose between three protection plans — Premier, Standard, or Minimum — to get the level of coverage that’s right for you. With each plan, you’re covered with third-party automobile liability insurance provided under a policy issued to Renta by _________ and Surplus Lines Company — $750,000 for the Premier plan.*

• Can other people drive a car that I booked?

  Yes, multiple guests can drive the car you book on Renta, as long as they are all approved to drive. The primary driver (whoever booked the car) can add additional drivers with no fees or additional charges. Only the primary driver can request to add drivers; Renta hosts cannot do it for you. We encourage you to request to add additional drivers before your trip starts. To speed up the process, have your additional driver create a Renta account and get approved to drive before you request to add them. All drivers must have a valid driver’s license and meet the age requirements for the car you’ve booked. You can request to add drivers via the “My Trips” tab in the Renta app without additional driver charges or extra costs.

• What is the cancellation policy in Renta?

  You can cancel and get a full refund up to 24 hours before your trip starts. If you book a trip with less than 24 hours’ notice, you have one hour after booking to cancel free of charge. If you cancel after the free cancellation period ends, you will be charged a small cancellation fee. In the rare event a host cancels, you’ll be notified immediately so you can book another car, or we’ll help you find one. Your refund can be temporarily held to expedite rebooking, or the funds can be returned to your bank account — your choice.

• What happens if I have an accident?

  If there’s an emergency or an issue with the car, call our emergency roadside assistance provider, available 24/7. We’ll make sure you’re safe, then help you get back on your way.

• Can I get my car delivered to me?

  Yes, many hosts offer delivery to travel hubs like airports, train stations, and hotels, or to custom delivery locations. There are cars available on Renta at convenient locations near hundreds of airports. Skip the rental counter and have your car delivered for pickup and return at your hotel or vacation rental, or nearby location, to save time and hassle on your weekend getaway or family vacation. Some hosts offer free delivery, while others set their own delivery fee.

• How do I get discounts when booking a car?

  How do I get discounts when booking a car? Many Renta hosts offer discounted prices for weekly and monthly trips, as well as “early bird” discounts for trips booked a week or more in advance. Get the best deals and lowest rates possible on everything from cars to SUVs by booking longer trips, at least a week in advance.* On your Account page, make sure you’ve checked the box to receive email notifications, and enable push notifications from the Renta app in your phone settings — we’ll send you occasional promo codes, discounts, and deals! *See more about promotions & discounts

• Where are the cleaning and safety policies in Renta?

  Under the enhanced cleaning policy, hosts are required to clean and disinfect their vehicles thoroughly before every trip, so you can feel safe and comfortable behind the wheel. Renta hosts have access to training materials on enhanced safety measures and cleaning practices to help prevent the spread of COVID-19 or other viruses.
