And payment method to be applicable for reservation in your case depends on the location and/or the rental car supplier in question, and you will be informed about amount you should pay in advance prior to completion of the reservation process.

If the rental amount has been paid completely, CarTrawler retains 3-days rental fee and service fee and is not liable to return the rental fee and you accept under this document that CarTrawler is by no means liable to return the total rental fee in any way. If you desire to make any change with your reservation, such request should be notified via the web page to CarTrawler Support department by indicating all details of change clearly. CarTrawler does not give any warranty to the effect that such request of change shall be fulfilled, but makes its best endeavour for fulfilment of the change in question. No change may be made after the rental car is picked up. If you desire to extend the rental period (to such a date beyond coupon of CarTrawler), then you should make payment directly to the car rental agency on the then applicable local prices after picking up the rental car. It is your responsibility after making reservation to notify the car rental supplier about physical or moral conditions related to the rental car. If you fail to inform the rental car supplier about these conditions, problems may arise with the insurance company in case of an accident. At time of picking up the rental car, you are required to show a driving license issued by your country, a valid passport and a credit card issued to the renter (driver). If you fail to show the required documents, the car rental agency may not give the car to you and the amount you have paid already is not returned. If you will be late in picking up the car, you, customer, is responsible to notify the car rental agency about such delay. In case flight cancellation or delay, CarTrawler cannot be held responsible for return of the amount already paid.

Terms and conditions are given in the list of cars you will find by search through the search engine.

If you find any mistake after such review, you should make CarTrawler informed via the web page by stating the related details. CarTrawler recommends you to read and comply with the terms and conditions of the rental car supplier upon receipt of the confirmation of reservation and presentation of the car to you by the car rental supplier. (These terms and conditions are available in the reservation engine; however, they may be from time to time modified by the car rental supplier.
