Save on your Car Rental with Pay Now Rates
At most Budget locations in the U.S. and Canada, with our Pay Now Rates you'll enjoy up to 35% off non-discounted budget.com rates. When you select a Pay Now Rate, you are required to prepay toward your rental on budget.com at time of reservation.
If you can't find a Pay Now Rate that works for you, you'll still have the option to pay online for any published rate that you find on budget.com — though by selecting and prepaying another rate, no additional savings will apply. With our flexible pay online terms, Budget prepaid rentals beat the competition! But reserve early — you're only able to pay online when booking more than 16 hours before the rental pick-up time.
How Pay Now Rates Work
When selecting your car on budget.com, check out our Pay Now Rates because they could reflect a savings of up to 35% off non-discounted budget.com rates! If discounted Pay Now Rates are available for your car rental, you'll see that rate option on the car selection page when you reserve on budget.com. But choose your rate carefully; because once you purchase a Pay Now Rate, no further discounts may be applied.
Another Pay Online Option
 Even if there isn't a discounted Pay Now Rate available for your rental, you can still choose the convenience of prepaying by simply selecting the "pay online" option on step 4 of the reservation process. While this option won't discount your rental further than the price you have already chosen, customers find that paying online makes sense!
"Makes budgeting for our road-trip easier."
"Saves time."
"Just easier."
"Have used before. Good customer service."
"One less thing to worry about."
Our Flexible Pay Online Terms Beat the Competition
Unlike other car rental companies or third-party Web sites, Budget doesn't lock you in after you've prepaid for the rental.
Important Pay Online Tips
- Keep your reservation confirmation number handy because this number is necessary for rental modifications, cancellations or refund requests.
- A prepaid car rental can be paid on budget.com with the following credit cards: In the U.S.: Amex, Visa, MasterCard, Discover. In Canada: Amex, Visa, MasterCard. At rental pickup, you must present the same card that you used for online payment. Generally, Budget requires a credit card hold of total estimated charges or $200 (whichever is greater). At locations in which a debit card hold is allowed, the debit hold will be $200 or estimated charges (whichever is greater) — unless you already paid toward your rental on budget.com. In that case, the debit hold will be only $100. See full terms and conditions for rental requirements for your location during the online reservation process.
- Most reservation details may be changed before your scheduled rental pick-up time without penalty via budget.com, or at the counter when you pick up your rental car. Reservation details that may not be changed include method of prepayment, name on the reservation, and some changes to rental location.
- If you cancel prior to your scheduled pick-up time, we'll refund the full prepaid amount less a $10 processing fee.
- If you don't show up for your rental, we'll refund the full prepaid amount less a $50 no-show processing fee.
- Cancel and refund requests must be made on budget.com using the 'cancel/request a refund' process accessible when you view your reservation details on budget.com. Credits will be refunded back to the card used for prepayment.
- You have up to 6 months after your pick-up date to request a refund.
