Avis Budget Group has today announced the launch of Digital Check In, an online service enabling customers to spend less time at the counter when picking up a vehicle at any Budget location in Australia.  

Developed to meet changing consumer demands within the car rental industry, the feature speeds up the vehicle check out process by offering customers the option to pre-enter their details online prior to arriving at the location.

To use Digital Check In, customers should reserve a vehicle via the Budget Australia website. Customers will be presented with the Digital Check In option once the reservation is confirmed, giving them the opportunity to provide their contact details and drivers licence information online.

Customers who have an existing reservation can access the Digital Check In option by entering their reservation number and surname at the reservation management page here.

Tom Mooney, Managing Director of Avis Budget Group, Pacific, said: “The Digital Check In feature will enable faster vehicle pick up for all Avis and Budget customers in Australia. Many Australians are prioritising their health and personal safety at this time and are keen to practise responsible social distancing by limiting their exposure to other members of the public. We are pleased that the Digital Check In service will ensure customers can have a safe rental experience, minimising contact with others and spending a reduced time at the counter in all Avis and Budget locations in Australia.”

Avis Budget Group has also launched the ‘Budget Worry Free Promise’ committing to enhanced cleaning protocols and to reassure our customers of the highest standards of safety and cleanliness. For more information, please click here.
