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

When renting a car at Johannesburg Airport, it's essential to understand the nuances of car rental insurance and the deposit required. Firstly, the insurance for rental cars typically covers damage, theft, and liability. However, it's vital to read the specifics of your rental agreement, as coverage can vary significantly. Most rental companies offer basic insurance, but you can also purchase additional coverage for greater protection.

Deposits act as a security measure for the rental company. When you pick up your vehicle, the company will hold a deposit on your credit card. This amount varies but it covers potential damages or additional charges incurred during the rental period. Ensure your credit card has sufficient funds to avoid any inconvenience.
