Renting a car with a Credit Card
Credit cards are accepted at airport and non-airport locations in the US, Puerto Rico and Canada.
• VISA®
• MasterCard®
• American Express®
• Discover Network®

Renters without a ticketed return travel itinerary will need to provide a credit card with sufficient available credit to cover the estimated total amount for the rental and a deposit between $200-$850 depending on the rental location and class of vehicle rented.

Renting a car with a Debit Card
Debit/check cards are any non-credit cards bearing the VISA®, Mastercard® or Discover® logo. Prepaid cards or any other non-credit cards without one of these logos are not accepted. Debit cards are accepted at airport and non-airport locations in the US and Puerto Rico. Please be advised when using a debit card, special conditions may apply.

At airport locations, debit cards are only accepted at the time of rental if accompanied by a ticketed return travel itinerary. The name and address shown on the renter’s driver’s license must match their current home address. Active-duty military personnel are exempt from address requirements. If using a debit card for any amounts owed, the available funds in the account associated with Renter’s debit card will be reduced by those amounts.  Additionally, Renter is responsible for any overdraft fees incurred.

Renting a car with Cash
For security reasons, many Enterprise branches do not accept cash payments; however, some branches may accept cash or a money order at the end of the rental for final payment after the vehicle has been returned. Check with your rental location to see if the rental location accepts cash or money orders at the end of the rental. We apologize for any inconvenience.

A car rental discount is applied at participating International Locations. The USAA program member benefits (i.e., waived youthful driver fee 21 -24, no additional driver fee, etc.) do not apply to international locations.

We are unable to guarantee specific make/model of vehicles.

All vehicles are non-smoking and renters should not smoke in them.

NOTE: Additional cleaning fees will apply if a vehicle is returned in a condition where it needs to be cleaned and deodorized due to smoking.

The Enterprise TollPass program is our electronic toll collection program which makes travel more convenient. On roadways covered by our TollPass service, the program eliminates the need for travelers to carry change or wait in long cash payment lines at toll plazas, allowing Enterprise renters to drive through electronic toll lanes and pay tolls electronically.

The minimum age to rent a vehicle in the United States is 21 years of age using the USA program. Renters 21 through 24 years of age may be restricted to specific car classes. Waiver of Underage Driver Fee is limited to USAA Insurance eligible members only.  USAA members under 25 may be asked for proof of USAA insurance or Military ID at the counter to receive waived underage driver fee.

For spouses or USAA family members an additional driver fee is waived in the US. 

Any additional driver (excluding a spouse, domestic partner, or USAA family member) will pay a daily fee. Renter’s spouse, domestic partner or USAA family member who meet the same age and driver’s license requirements of the renter are authorized drivers at no additional charge. Any additional authorized drivers must appear at time of rental and meet age and driver’s license requirements.

An additional charge of $15.00 per day for each additional authorized driver will be added to the cost of the rental unless other contractual conditions apply.  In New York state, the additional authorized driver charge is $5 per day.

A spouse or domestic partner is the only permitted additional driver on a rental secured with a debit card.

An additional driver may only be added to the contract at a rental location and may be added or removed in the middle of the contract. When adding an additional driver in the middle of the contract both the renter and the additional driver must be present at the location.

The system will calculate the charges based on the dates the additional driver was listed on the rental.

All additional drivers must:
• Meet age requirements
• Appear at the rental counter with the primary renter
• Present a valid driver's license
An additional daily fee may apply for any additional drivers listed on the rental agreement.

Unlimited mileage is available for most car classes (including Economy through Large SUVs) in the United States. Larger or Specialty vehicles (such as large passenger vans or large cargo vans) include 150 free miles per day, 1,050 free miles per week, and 2,500 free miles per month, as applicable. Any additional miles will be charged at the rate of $0.25 per mile.

As a customer, you have a choice as to how you would like to pay for fuel.

Fuel Policy at Non Airport locations:
• Customers may refuel the vehicle to the same fuel level upon picking up the vehicle.
• If a customer chooses not to refuel the vehicle to the same fuel level, they will be charged the local Enterprise rate which is typically above the local pump price.
• A full tank of gas is not guaranteed.

Fuel Policy at Airport Car Rental Locations:
• You may refuel the vehicle to the same fuel level you received when you picked up the vehicle, or if you choose not to refuel the vehicle to the same fuel level, you will be charged the local Enterprise rate which is typically above the local pump price.
• You may opt to pre-pay for fuel -- Pre-pay gives you two conveniences:

• You can avoid the hassle of having to fuel up the vehicle before returning.
• Pre-pay fuel option is calculated at the local rate of gas minus a per-gallon discount.

Note: Prepaid fuel is only sold in full tanks at the discounted price per gallon and is not refundable. Local fuel rates will vary by the area you are renting a vehicle.

Enterprise does not charge No-Show fees. We ask that reservations are cancelled 24 hours in advance.

• Your one-way rental must be reserved as such in advance of the rental.
• A rental terminating at a different location from the originating location will be assessed a flat drop fee of $150 in addition to the rental rate

For Enterprise offers additional protection products that you can purchase along with your rental vehicle. Currently, we offer our customers Damage Waiver, Personal Effects Coverage, Supplemental Liability Protection and Roadside Assistance Protection. Please see below for more information and the cost associated with our insurance and protection products.

Damage Waiver (DW)
Damage Waiver is not insurance. The purchase of DW is optional and not required in order to rent a vehicle. You may purchase optional DW for an additional fee. If you purchase DW we agree, subject to the actions that invalidate DW listed on the rental agreement, to contractually waive your responsibility for all or part of the cost of damage to, loss or theft of, the vehicle.

When deciding whether or not to purchase DW, you may wish to check with your insurance representative or credit card company to determine whether, in the event of damage to, or theft of, vehicle, you have coverage or protection for such damage or theft and the amount of your deductible or out-of-pocket risk.

Personal Effects Coverage (PEC)
Personal Effects Coverage (PEC) is offered at the time of rental for an additional daily charge. If accepted, the PEC contained in the policy insures the personal effects of the renter, additional drivers, or anyone who is traveling with the renter against risks of loss or damage. Benefits are payable in addition to any other insurance coverage the renter or passengers may have. This is a summary only.

The purchase of PEC is optional and not required to rent a car. The coverage provided by PEC may duplicate the renter's existing coverage.

Enterprise is not qualified to evaluate the adequacy of the renter's existing coverage; therefore, the renter should examine his or her personal insurance policies or other sources of coverage that may duplicate the coverage provided by PEC.

Supplemental Liability Protection (SLP)
Supplemental Liability Protection (SLP) is offered at the time of rental for an additional daily charge. If accepted, SLP provides the renter and authorized drivers with up to $300,000 combined single limit for third party liability claims. If the renter accepts SLP, Enterprise provides third party liability protection up to the applicable minimum financial responsibility limit and Zurich American Insurance Company provides excess third party liability insurance coverage from the applicable minimum financial responsibility limit to $300,000. This is a summary only.

The purchase of SLP is optional and not required to rent a car. The coverage provided by SLP may duplicate the renter's existing coverage. Enterprise is not qualified to evaluate the adequacy of the renter's existing coverage; therefore, the renter should examine his or her personal insurance policies or other sources of coverage that may duplicate the coverage provided by SLP.

If SLP is selected and paid for in Puerto Rico (Where available) SLP provides Renter or any AAD with minimum financial responsibility limits under a policy of insurance AND excess insurance under a policy of insurance issued with Zurich American Insurance Company. These policies together provide Renter and AAD(s) with a combined single limit per accident equal to $300,000. SLP is primary to any other coverage and will respond to third party accident claims that result from bodily injury, including death, and property damage that arise from the use or operation of vehicle as permitted in the Agreement. SLP is available for an additional charge as stipulated on the Summary.

Roadside Assistance Protection (RAP)
Roadside Assistance Protections (RAP) allows Enterprise customers to waive financial responsibility for chargeable roadside incidents such as lost keys, lockouts and fuel outages.

RAP can be added to online bookings at the branch or can be added to a rental ticket at any time. Please note: If added mid-rental, the renter must return to a designated renting location to have the vehicle inspected before adding RAP.

To contact our roadside assistance team please call 1-800-307-6666.
