What is Rental Car Excess Insurance?
Rental car excess insurance is your seatbelt while driving a rental vehicle. It provides coverage for a range of unexpected events to cover the excess you might be liable for, including damage to the car, and theft.
In short, it’s your protection on the road for any bumps along the way.
Why Should You Get Rental Car Excess Insurance?
Here’s why you should always have excess insurance when renting a car:
Rental Car Excess can be expensive
Rental car excess can reach up to $5000 for damage or theft. Without extra insurance, you could be liable for that amount if something goes wrong.
Accidents happen
Even the best drivers can find themselves in unfortunate situations. Whether it's a minor scratch or something more serious, rental car excess insurance gives you greater peace of mind.
Theft protection
If your rental car is stolen, insurance steps in to cover the costs, and cover for the rental car excess means you won’t be left paying out of pocket.
A better value solution
Most rental companies offer insurance and paid options to reduce excess, but this is often a pricier way to cover the gap.
