When Will I Be Charged for the Reservation?

CarRentals is able to secure reservations very often without a credit card but the car rental company will want payment with a credit card in your own name when you arrive at the counter to pick up your car - this is known as a "Pay at Pick Up" reservation. If you opt to purchase collision insurance online, your credit card will be charged immediately for the insurance premium portion only.

Just so you know, while you may use a debit card to purchase collision coverage, the car rental company may not accept a debit card as payment for the rental vehicle.

Some rentals require full or part payment at check out. These are "Pay Now" or "Deposit Required" reservations. Cards will be charged immediately for these types.
