The simplest and most transparent car rental with no deposit
ACR (Airport Car Rental) is a company specialized in vehicle rentals directly at Sarajevo International Airport. Our mission is simple: to provide clients with a fast, safe, and fully transparent car rental experience – without complications, hidden costs, and most importantly, without a deposit and without the need for a credit card.
What is a deposit in the car rental industry?
A deposit is an amount of money that most car rental companies block on your card when you pick up the vehicle. This amount serves as a financial guarantee for:
- potential vehicle damage
- late returns
- additional costs (fuel, fines, etc.)
In practice, deposits usually range from €300 up to €2000 or more. This money is blocked, meaning you cannot use it during your rental period, and often for several days even after returning the vehicle.
Why doesn’t ACR require a deposit?
At ACR, we understand the real needs of our clients, which is why we have made the decision to completely eliminate the deposit.
Main reasons:
1. Many clients don’t have a credit card
Traditional car rental companies require a credit card specifically because of the deposit. However, many people either don’t own one or simply don’t want to use it. We decided to remove that barrier.
2. Trust in our clients
We build long-term relationships based on trust, not financial restrictions.
3. Accessibility for everyone
Our goal is to make car rental available to everyone, regardless of banking limitations.
4. Faster and simpler process
Without a deposit and without a credit card, the vehicle pickup process is quick and hassle-free.
5. Full transparency
The price you see is the price you pay – no hidden fees.
How is it possible to operate without a deposit?
The key to our business model is premium insurance coverage.
All ACR vehicles are covered with the highest level of insurance, including:
- full comprehensive (CASCO) insurance
- theft protection
- body damage coverage
- tire coverage
- glass coverage
- undercarriage coverage
We use top-tier insurance policies from ASA Central Insurance, one of the most reliable providers in the region.
What does this mean for you?
- No deposit required
- No credit card needed
- Maximum safety and peace of mind
- No fear of high unexpected costs
Important note in case of an accident
In the event of any accident, it is mandatory to call the police immediately and wait for the official report.
This is important because:
- insurance is valid only with a police report
- it protects both the client and the company
- it ensures proper and fast claim processing
Without a police report, insurance coverage may be limited.
