We had a recent enquiry from one of our potential customers about whether they can hire a car in South Africa, the problem was that they were a young driver aged 19 and ideally wanted a low young driver fee.

We contacted a few companies located at the main South African airports in order to try and arrange some sort of deal that would allow young drivers to hire, typically 19 is an age that you would really struggle anywhere in the world.

However against the odds we eventually managed to find a supplier willing to allow this customer to hire, and we can happily announce that we can now hire to people the age of 18 given that they have held their licence for a year prior to hiring with us.

On top of already arranging a young driver deal for South Africa we also managed to arrange a few more…

Low Deposit Car Hire: Deposits are usually a big problem as they can range as high as approximately £3,000 which for many is just not an acceptable amount to have blocked on their card for the duration of your rental. This same supplier we have deals with have deposits starting as low as £80!

Debit Card Car Hire: This is another problem when you come to rent a car, most suppliers don’t accept the use of anything other than a credit card. This supplier however have agreed that our customers can use debit cards given that they meet three main restrictions.
