Optional Products

Car Rental companies offer many options within the Rental Plan at time of booking and/or at the time customer are collecting the vehicle and signing the rental agreement. Most of our rental plans include the Loss Damage Waiver (LDW) / Collision Damage Waiver (CDW). 

What is LDW/CDW?  This option offers the renter with the protection in case of any damage or loss to the RENTAL CAR. In the United States and Canada, this coverage offers 100% protection without a deductible. Outside of the USA or Canada, some locations have deductible depending on the car class. Please contact our SUPPORT department for more information.
