Credit Card Policies

Avis accepts most major credit cards as credit identification at the time of rental. The renter's name must be on the credit card. Accepted credit card list: Avis Charge Card, American Express, AT&T Capital, Diner's Club Int'l, Discover, China UnionPay, GE Capital, JCB, MasterCard, PHH, Sears and Visa. Some locations may not accept each of the referenced cards. Avis may request an authorization hold against your account for the estimated rental charges of the rental, but reserves the right in its sole discretion to request an extra value to be based on certain factors as we deem appropriate: Most rentals may require an authorization hold of the estimated rental charges plus $200.00 USD. If you have prepaid the rental, the hold amount will be $250.00 USD. While this hold is in place, the funds will not be available for your use. When the rental is over, we will process the reversal, but the bank may take time to post it back to the account. Note: Chime Visa credit cards and prepaid credit cards are not acceptable methods of credit identification to pick up a car at any location. One of the above mentioned cards must be presented. Chime Visa credit cards and prepaid credit cards are accepted at time of return only, if we can obtain full authorization from the card bank for the total charges due.

Drivers License

At time of pick-up, driver must present a valid, U.S.-issued driver's license and credit card (or debit card at participating locations) in the driver's name. If the driver's license is not issued in the U.S., you must present your drivers license and either a passport or a Canadian enhanced license in the driver's name.

Towing

Towing is not permitted. Vehicles cannot be used to tow or push anything. A trailer hitch cannot be installed on the vehicles.
