Our Protection Products
What we do
When it comes to protecting your rental car, we believe in giving you options — because every trip is different, and so are your needs. At ReservAway.com, we offer a range of protection products that put you in control, from simple essentials to all-out peace of mind. Let's break it down:
Basic Protection
Our Basic Protection option covers the essentials—think of it as a 'just-in-case' safety net. It protects against major incidents like collisions or theft, but you'll still need to pay a deductible amount before the protection kicks in. Ideal for those who are confident drivers and don't mind taking on a little more risk.
What's Covered: Damage or theft of the rental vehicle. You pay a deductible (usually around $1,000 - $3,000) if something happens.
Standard Protection
Bumping it up a notch, Standard Protection gives you a little more cushion. It reduces the deductible you're on the hook for, so if something goes wrong, your wallet doesn't take as big of a hit. Plus, it can add extra coverage for things like windshield cracks and minor damages.

This is the crème de la crème of protection products, covering just about everything with no extra costs to worry about if something goes wrong. You can drive off without a care in the world, knowing that you're fully covered—no surprise fees, no hassle. What's covered: Zero deductible for damage, theft, or any other covered incidents.

Third-Party Protection: Rental Cover
For those seeking a more comprehensive alternative, we've partnered with Rental Cover, a trusted name in global rental protection. Their coverage goes beyond what most rental companies offer, from flat tires to lost keys, and applies worldwide. While their claims process is refreshingly quick (most are resolved within three days). It's important to note that choosing this option won't eliminate the usual desk drama. Rental companies will still need your credit card and may try to upsell, so you might encounter the same hassle as with the basic coverage.
Why Choose Rental Cover?
- Worldwide Coverage: Whether you're cruising around Europe or exploring the back roads in Australia, Rental Cover has you covered.
- Full Protection: From handling damage fees to loss-of-use charges, they take care of it all.
- Lightning-Fast Claims: Most claims are processed in just three days, so no waiting weeks for a refund.
- Peace of Mind: With Rental Cover, you'll never have to worry about the fine print.
Which Protection is right for you?
If you're after straightforward, no-frills coverage, Basic might be all you need. Want a little more peace of mind without splurging? Standard is your go-to. For those who prefer ultimate protection with zero surprises, Best has you fully covered. But if you don't mind a bit of in-person sales charm and have a credit card that can handle the upfront costs, Rental Cover offers a cheaper option that still protects you worldwide.
With ReservAway.com, you'll enjoy flexible, easy-to-understand options — and best of all, no pushy salespeople in sight!
What is Additional Cover?
It is a product that we offer you when you book the Best product, we certainly don't think it's needed! But we pride ourselves on giving you choice.
Some rental companies exclude things like interior damage. While it's rare to be charged, it can be a hassle. So see this as a top-up option, which includes everything—just in case!
