We are the biggest agent for car rental companies owing to which we get special prices under corporate rates. These prices are offered to our customers.
Besides, there are frequent cases where rental companies are left with quite a large number of unrented vehicles. Idle time is not profitable for business, so it is much more practical to rent a car much cheaper than to allow it stay idle at the parking lot.
However, in view of legal competitive restrictions in effect in most countries, rental agencies cannot openly on their website offer prices below the established ones.
This is why we do not show the name of the car rental company until booking has been made. We do not violate any antimonopoly laws. In turn, you get rates, for example, from car rental company Sixt, significantly lower than the company could offer on its own website.

You can get more information at Wikipedia.org. We also recommend that you print out this document in English and take it with you if you plan to use a national driving license.
However, we still recommend you get an international driving license in order to prevent possible disputes with employees of rental agencies on the issue of the Vienna Convention. In addition, vouchers from car rental companies in most cases carry the requirement that one must have an international driving license. In terms of the Vienna Convention, this is not a compulsory condition. Nevertheless, if a car rental company refuses to rent you a car based on this, we will not be able to refund you your advance payment. This issue needs to be settled directly with the car rental company.
If you want to receive your car at the airport, it is recommendable you let the car rental company know your flight number in advance. This is to enable the company make your car ready for your arrival. If you do not know your flight number at the time of booking, try to get it and send it to the car rental company at least 3 days before arrival.
If you need additional equipment, you need to book it at the time you are booking a car. The additional equipment is usually paid for when receiving your car.
The rental company cannot guarantee provision of accurate information on the car brand, color and type of fuel.
In lending a car with a full fuel tank, transport companies usually require that you return the car with the same fuel volume. Any missing fuel volume is paid for according to that company’s rates. However, in the U.S., Portugal and Spain, for example, when renting a car, the company charges for a full fuel tank in addition – so there is no need to refuel the car before returning it.
VISA and MASTERCARD cards are accepted for car rental payment. For some cars, it is required to have a credit card. This requirement is specified in the lease terms under the “payment method” section. Please take time to read it before booking. If you do not have a valid credit card, you can select another car for which the lease terms do not require you to have a credit card.
You can check the actual type of your card through the service www.bindb.com. Please note that some debit cards are actually credit cards with zero lending limit. A credit card with zero lending limit will be suitable for rent since during authorization, only the type of the card is checked, the lending limit is not checked.
Unfortunately, cash payment is not allowed. You can only pay through credit cards:
Payments made in your local currency are automatically converted at the exchange rate of your payment system (Visa, Mastercard).
According to international rules, when receiving the car, a security deposit is held from your card.
The process of releasing back the security deposit can take from 3 to 28 days. If you want to speed up this process, please contact the bank servicing your card.
To get a car, you must have a valid driving license, a credit card owned by you and a car rental voucher.

COLLISION DAMAGE WAIVER (abbreviated CDW) – this insurance limits the financial liability of the person renting the car, which arises in the event of damage to the car.
THEFT PROTECTION (abbreviated TP) – this insurance limits the customer’s liability if the car was stolen.
THIRD PARTY LIABILITY INSURANCE (abbreviated TPL) – this insurance provides liability insurance and compensation for third party damages caused by the driver.
Limitation of liability should be understood to mean that the lessee, in any case, shall be financially liable, but only within the limits established by franchise.
Franchise is the amount not covered by insurance. It is withheld from the credit card. The amount at which the damage is evaluated is deducted from this franchise.
For example, if the franchise is EUR 400, then the insurance company will cover only damages exceeding this amount.
A franchise is established based on the type of insurance chosen. Therefore, it is important to find out precisely which insurance best suits you and in which cases it is valid. In most cases, damage to windows, tires, and headlights are not covered under ordinary insurance. Customers will have to cover the damage of such items by themselves.
If the car did not receive any damage during use, the franchise is completely released back to the credit card.
SUPER CDW – this insurance removes all the liability from the lessee in the event of damage to the car.
SUPER TP – this insurance removes all the liability from the lessee in the event of theft.

By international car rental rules, you can only book a car class and not a specific model. You can choose the model only at the local office of the car rental company on the day you visit. However, it should be noted that the retail price can be much higher than the prices listed on our website. Moreover, without prior booking, companies usually offer very small selection of models, not sold out in advance.
