DEPOSIT AND CARDS

HOW THE PRE-AUTHORIZATION WORKS AND CARDS ACCEPTED


**How does the deposit work? **

  • On the day of departure we take a provisional bank imprint called preauthorization bank (PLBS)
  • This amount is not debited to your account but is provisioned, i.e. your bank blocks it
  • PLBS expire after 28 days from the date of initiation. After this period, the provision is automatically released by your bank.
  • It is therefore advisable to make sure that you have the necessary funds and to anticipate this blocking for 28 days.
  • Please note that with some neo-banks, the provision appears on the bank statement, but it is indeed a provision (in case of doubt check with your bank and contact us


**What does the deposit amount depend on? **

  • The category of vehicle
  • The level of protection subscribed



**Special case of contracts of more than 26 days ? **

  • In this particular case we debit the deposit instead of taking an imprint
  • After returning the car the refund will be processed within a maximum of 15 days


Which credit cards are accepted?

  • We accept VISA and MASTERCARD which expire at least 2 months after the planned return date
  • The credit card must be in the name of the driver or an additional driver registered in the contract
  • We do not accept AMERICAN EXPRESS, UNION PAY, DINER'S CLUB
  • We do not accept deferred debit cards
