Hire Car Cover

Our Hire Car Cover

If you have a rental car in Australia that gets damaged or stolen, you might have to pay extra money to the rental company for repairs. Australia Car Hire Cover helps you by paying back the extra charges when you make a claim. You can buy it up to 364 days before you pick up your rental, and it covers the extra fees on your rental car anywhere in the world for a whole year.

Purchase your policy up to 364 days before you pick up your car.

Cover up to 1 extra driver per rental without adding them to your policy separately.

Drive with Confidence, Save on Unexpected Costs

Our protection plan designed to alleviate the financial burden of excess charges imposed by car rental companies in case of damage to your hired vehicle in Australia. Here’s what you need to know:

  • Coverage Flexibility: You can purchase the policy up to 364 days in advance or right before you collect your rental car, offering peace of mind for your upcoming trips.
  • Comprehensive Protection: The policy reimburses you for excess charges levied by the car rental company’s insurer when you claim damage of your rental vehicle.
  • Global Coverage: This cover extends beyond the borders of Australia, providing excess protection for rental cars worldwide for a full year.
