Debit Cards and Prepaid Credit Cards
Advantage Rent A Car accepts debit cards with a
Visa/MasterCard logo on them as a form of financial
responsibility at the beginning of the rental. Debit cards may
only be used for rentals of economy through full size vehicles.
The customer MUST have available sufficient funds to cover the
cost of the rental, plus a security deposit of $300.00. This
will be charged (not just authorized) at the beginning of the
rental process. The deposit will be credited back to the account
upon return of the vehicle and satisfactory settlement of the
charges within ten business days. Airport/airline arriving
customers must present a return airline ticket/itinerary, and
local renters must provide a copy of a recent utility bill with
their current address and their home phone number must be
verifiable through directory assistance or the phone book.
Please note that Advantage Rent A Car does not accept NETSPEND
or any other form of prepaid credit
cards at any location. We do however, accept all regular CREDIT
CARDS issued by American Express, Visa, Mastercard, Discover,
Diners Club or Carte Blanche without the above requirements.
