This Site is operated by Vroom Vroom Vroom Pty Ltd (ABN 19 050 417 037) for our related group companies including V2B Travel Pte Ltd (UEN 201710991D) (“Vroom”, “us”, “we” or “our”).
You agree to be bound by these Terms and our Privacy Policy when you access our Site, including when you make a booking on the Site, or when you make a booking with one of our customer services representatives by phone, email or in person.
In these Terms, when we say “Site”, we mean any of the websites or Apps operated by or on behalf of Vroom, regardless of whether you access our services via one of our Apps or a third party website.
Please read these Terms carefully.
Our customers are our focus and we do all we can to ensure that your experience with us is a great one.
Please contact us if you experience any problems with our service or if you think we can help in any way.
We offer our Site as a place where you can compare, obtain information about, make bookings and purchases for rental vehicle and other travel services offered by selected third party providers, including car rental suppliers, other aggregators of vehicle rental and distributors of rental vehicle excess insurance (“Providers”).
Our obligation to you is to make bookings on your behalf. We are not ourselves a provider of vehicle rentals or rental vehicle excess insurance and have no control over the services supplied by Providers. We do not endorse or recommend any Providers.
To make a booking for a car rental you must complete our booking form. Once we receive your booking form and payment (if required), we, or the Provider, will confirm your booking by emailing you a confirmation voucher and receipt. If you have made a payment to us at the time of booking a rental vehicle you will receive a receipt from one of our related trading companies, Vroom Vroom Vroom Pty Ltd, V2B Pte Ltd or Vroom Vroom Vroom Inc.
We receive a commission from Providers for services booked or purchased through the Site. Our commercial relationships with Providers, including the payment of remuneration, the type of remuneration paid, the basis on which commission is paid and the variance in commission per sale, do not affect the display of rental vehicle search results on the Site.
Before completing our booking form, please make sure that you have read the Provider’s terms and conditions, including their qualifications and eligibility requirements, and for rental vehicle excess insurance, their Product Disclosure Statement and Financial Services Guide. All bookings made on your behalf, or purchases of rental vehicle excess insurance or other goods and services, are subject to the terms and conditions imposed by Providers.
When you pick up your vehicle, you will be required to sign a rental agreement with the Provider. Your rental and use of the vehicle will be governed by the terms of the rental agreement and any other documentation or information provided to you by the Provider at the time you pick up your vehicle. The rental agreement is between you and the Provider and we will not be liable to you or to any third party in relation to the Provider's rental agreement or any other documentation provided to you by the Provider at the time of pick up.
Please provide us with feedback on your experience with a Provider by contacting us.
You may cancel your Vroom rental vehicle booking at any time by following the instructions in your booking confirmation email, or by contacting us.
Bookings without pre-payment
Where you have made a booking which did not require payment at the time of booking, no cancellation fees will apply.
Deposit bookings
Where you have paid us a deposit for your booking we will refund your deposit in full if you cancel more than 48 hours before the rental pick up date and time, specified in the booking confirmation email.
Subject to your refund rights under the Competition and Consumer Act 2010 (Cth) (“Australian Consumer Law”), no refund will be made where:
you cancel your booking which was confirmed less than 48 hours in advance of the booking pick up date and time,
you cancel your booking less than 48 hours in advance of the booking pick up date and time,
you have picked up your rental,
you fail to collect your vehicle at the pick up date and time with all necessary documentation and a credit card with enough available funds for the rental vehicle’s security deposit, or
you do not meet the Provider’s eligibility or other rental requirements and the Provider refuses to provide you with a rental on that basis.
If you have made a booking via our Site with a third party rental vehicle aggregator, including WiseCars or Motorhome Republic, the terms and conditions which apply to cancellations and refunds for that booking are contained in the Provider’s terms and conditions accepted by you at the time of booking.
