How does a budget.com prepaid rental work?
A budget.com prepaid rental – at most U.S. and Canada locations – is an advanced payment toward a reserved rental using a credit or debit card*. A reservation payment on budget.com is a real-time transaction – the card you use is immediately authorized and charged when you confirm your desire to prepay toward your rental. *While debit cards are an acceptable form of rental prepayment online, they may not always be accepted as payment for the credit hold required when you pick up your car. See full rental terms and conditions for the hold requirements at your rental location during the online reservation process. View full details about Budget’s prepaid reservation process.
