Pay less for your Collision Damage cover

Renting a car while overseas gives you tremendous freedom to explore your destination. But it can be expensive, especially when car rental excess insurance is factored in. Some customers are only offered a collision damage waiver when they collect their car – an often expensive fee that can further stretch the budget.

There’s no denying that a collision damage waiver can give you extra peace of mind – especially on unfamiliar roads overseas – but car rental companies often charge a hefty fee for this important add-on.

Car Hire Excess Insurance from Worldwide Insure gives you all the protection you need in the event of a collision – but for a much lower price. Many holiday makers are becoming wise to the high fees charged by car rental firms for excess cover, which is why buying separate car hire excess cover has become so popular.
