Frequently asked questions

Can I book now and pay later for my car rental in California?
Lock in your ride without paying in advance with our Book Now Pay Later option. When it's time to collect your car in California, simply have whoever's driving present a valid credit card to pay the cost in full. The car rental company will also place a hold on your card in the amount of the security deposit. It's a great way to help you budget for your trip and give you more booking flexibility. Prepayment applies to some cheaper deals. Our search results will display if a car is eligible for "pay at pickup."
What happens if I need to cancel my California car reservation?
That won't be a problem. If you can cancel your rental more than six hours prior to collecting the car, you're likely to qualify for all of your money back. You'll want to read the car's cancellation policy as there are some exclusions. Click through to our Customer Service Portal for more information.

What do you need to rent a car in California?
Before you can hop behind the wheel in California, you'll need a driver's license and a credit card.

Requirements can vary, so understand the policy terms and conditions before you select a rental company.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in California?

Where can I find a California car rental if I am younger than 25?

Some may rent to drivers under the age of 25, some may not. Surcharges may apply if you're between 21 and 24 years old. To avoid any unpleasant surprises at the rental desk, make sure you know if any extra charges apply to you.
