At most car rental companies abroad, $500 to $1,500 is blocked on your credit card the moment you pick up your car. That money is gone from your holiday budget until weeks after you return. At 123 Car Rental Bonaire it works differently: you rent a car without a deposit, with $0 deductible and with all damage covered.
Key points
- No deposit thanks to the 100% Coverage Package, included in every rental.
- $0 deductible: damage and theft are covered.
- No credit card needed; a debit card works fine.
- Free additional drivers and 24/7 roadside assistance.
How can you rent a car without a deposit?
A deposit protects a rental company against damage, fines or a car returned with an empty tank. With our 100% Coverage Package, 123 Car Rental takes over that risk. That is why we don’t ask for a deposit and don’t block anything on your card. You pay the agreed price in advance and that’s it.
Deposit vs deductible: what’s the difference?
The two terms are often confused, but they mean different things:
- Deductible (excess): the amount you pay yourself if the rental car is damaged. At many companies this is $1,000 or more.
- Deposit (security deposit): an amount the rental company blocks on your credit card at pick-up to cover possible costs. You get it back after the rental, provided there is nothing to deduct.
With 123 Car Rental both are $0. You don’t pay a deposit, and if there is damage you don’t pay a deductible either.
What does the 100% Coverage Package include?
- Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) and full damage coverage
- $0 deductible for damage and theft
- No deposit
- Free additional drivers
- 24/7 roadside assistance
The package is standard in every rental and is not optional, so you never have to compare complicated insurance options at the counter.
What is not covered?
Only costs you could have prevented yourself, such as traffic fines, damage while driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs, or excessive speeding. Smoking or transporting pets in the car results in cleaning costs, and towing a car that got stuck in sand, mud or loose coral is also at your own expense. You can read all conditions in our terms and conditions.
