More and more Romanians and tourists visiting Romania ask: „Can I rent a car without a credit card?” The answer is: Yes. In this article, we explain what options you have, what you need to know beforehand, and how Mauno Rental Center can help you find the best solution.

Why Do Most Companies Require a Credit Card?

A credit card acts as a guarantee for car rental companies. In case of damages, unpaid fees, or fines, the company can withhold an amount directly from the card, without legal or administrative actions.

However, not everyone owns a credit card, and some prefer to pay cash or with a debit card.

Are There Alternatives? Yes!

More and more companies now accept:

  • Credit card
  • Debit card
  • Cash payment

With Mauno Rental Center, you can filter partners that accept these payment methods.
