Available payment options

For seamless payment of your booking, we accept a range of credit cards, including MasterCard, Visa, Maestro, and American Express. Important Notice: When collecting your hired car, please be prepared to present a credit card as debit cards may not be accepted for such transactions. It's always best to consult the 'Payment Methods' section for detailed instructions well before your pick-up date.

Deposit and credit card information

Occasionally, a rental provider may specify that a credit card is necessary to secure a booking. If you find yourself without one, a quick check of your debit card at www.bindb.com could provide a solution.

Verify if your card has such features, as it could very well be your ticket to fulfilling the provider's requirements.

Cover terms and conditions. Size of the franchise. Security deposit

Renting a car in Melbourne comes with considerations for car rental insurance and a deposit. Understanding both is crucial for a seamless experience.

Car Rental Insurance: Essential for protecting you against potential damages and liabilities. Coverage options vary, including collision damage waiver (CDW), theft protection, and third-party liability. It's advisable to review insurance offerings carefully to ensure adequate coverage.

Deposit: A security deposit is required when renting a car. This amount is held to cover any potential damages or additional charges incurred during the rental period. The deposit amount can vary significantly depending on the vehicle type and rental company policies. Upon returning the car without damages, the deposit is fully refunded.

Understanding these aspects ensures a worry-free car rental experience in Melbourne.
