Hold Amount

When picking up the vehicle, it will be necessary for you to provide a credit card in your name with a sufficient limit to authorize a specific amount. The amount that is authorized on the card varies based on the rental category and duration, and serves as a guarantee for the rental company. It's important to note that this amount will not be charged to your bill, but will be temporarily held during the rental period.


Once you return the car in the same condition as received, the rental company has up to 72 hours to request the release of the blocked amount on your card. The time it takes for the amount to be unblocked depends on your credit card provider.

Important

Budget and Budget licensees reserve the right to refuse any request for rental including requests for persons under age, persons not in possession of a recognized full and valid driver's license, persons unable to satisfy credit or cash requirements, or persons who, in the opinion of Budget, constitute a risk.
