Annual and single trip cover for your car rentals in Europe & Worldwide
For non-commercial van rentals in the UK, Channel Islands & Isle of Man.
Car hire excess insurance is an optional insurance coverage which can protect you from the excess costs that you are required to pay in the event that your hire car is damaged or stolen.
You have two options when it comes to covering your excess:
How does it work with insurance4carhire?
As an example, if your excess with the car rental company were £500 and you needed to make a claim, you would pay the rental company £500 and they would pay the remaining cost of the claim.
You'd then claim back the £500 you paid, through insurance4carhire's online claims process.
