Car Hire with Drivemate

Typically, car rental companies require a credit card deposit that is temporarily held. Make sure to ask about the specific deposit amount and how it's handled once you return the vehicle.

With Drivemate, you can choose from a variety of insurance options to tailor your car hire experience. Select the coverage that best fits your needs, ensuring you have the protection required for peace of mind while driving.

If you're traveling with pets, confirm the rental company's pet policy before booking. Some companies allow pets but may have specific fees or restrictions, so it’s best to clarify in advance.

Take a moment to familiarize yourself with the vehicle's controls and features before driving off. Knowing how to operate essentials like headlights, wipers, and navigation systems can enhance safety and convenience.

If you're looking for more comfort or features, inquire about upgrade options at the rental desk. Sometimes, upgrades are offered at a discounted rate at pickup.

If you plan to share driving, check if the rental company allows a second driver and whether there are additional fees. Some companies offer free second driver options under certain conditions.

Many rental companies require payment by credit card and may not accept debit cards. If you only have a debit card, check the rental company's payment policies in advance and look for suitable options.

If traveling with pets, be sure to check the rental agency's pet policy. While some companies allow pets, there may be extra fees or specific requirements.
