At the time of rental, a current driver's license and major credit card must be presented. At many locations, debit cards issued under a VISA or MasterCard logo which draw funds directly from the cardholder's account may be used at the outset of a rental to qualify for a rental. There are exceptions to this general policy: Debit cards are not accepted to qualify for a rental in the New York Metropolitan Tri-State Area and the areas of Hartford, CT, Philadelphia, PA, Boston, MA, Detroit, MI and select locations in the Baltimore, MD area unless you are a Gold Plus Rewards (GPR) member using a debit card in your GPR pro?le or it is an Insurance Replacement rental.
