You must present a valid and accepted credit card or bank issued Mastercard or Visa debit card (see Accepted Forms of Payment above).
You must meet the licence rules.
For security purposes, the owner of the credit card entered on the payment step when making a booking must be present to collect the vehicle and is required to sign the Rental Agreement.

No Birds vehicles are covered by standard motor vehicle insurance; however, an excess of $5,000 may be charged for any loss or damage incurred during the hire period, regardless of fault. This coverage may not be applicable if the vehicle has been used in a manner in contravention of No Birds Terms and Conditions.
The rental vehicle excess can be reduced through the purchase of collision damage waiver products. No Birds offers a damage waiver product for $14 per day to reduce this financial exposure to zero.
Excess insurance is also available through third party providers such as Prosura.
After hours pickup and drop off of No Birds vehicles may be available — check with the depot concerned, likewise contact the rental location if you wish to extend your rental.

If a roadside assistance callout relates to something that is your fault (for example running out of fuel, losing the keys, locking the keys in the vehicle, or if a wheel needs to be changed due to a puncture), there is a callout fee associated with roadside assistance. For any mechanical breakdowns related to a vehicle fault, there is no charge.
The security deposit is a downpayment pre-authorised to your credit card at the commencement of your rental. The bond amount is $2,000 per No Birds vehicle while if the renter has purchased a damage waiver policy this is reduced to $300. All deposits can be paid for by AMEX, Mastercard, and Visa only.
