Expedia is a big believer in making travel easy and accessible, that's why we give you the flexibility to reserve your car without paying in advance. With our Book Now Pay Later option, you can just present a valid credit card to pay the cost in full at the pickup location. How's that for easy? The rental car company will also put a hold on your credit card for the amount of the deposit. For some cheaper deals online, you may be required to pay at the time of booking. Take note of which payment options are available for the rental car you're interested in.
