No-deposit options
Faro Airport (FAO), Portugal
Condition breakdown
A €0 damage deposit is only available on a qualifying final offer — a specific supplier, product and date combination. It is never a blanket rule for the whole airport.
- Damage deposit
- €0 available on a qualifying final offer only
Applies only when the checkout page and voucher both state a zero damage hold. It does not apply to every supplier, vehicle, product or date, and it never means that no other amount can be held or charged.
- Fuel amount / hold
- €70–€250 indicative range observed for selected products; verify the exact fuel amount on the final offer and voucher
- Toll amount / charge
- €100 Via Verde toll amount, held separately (supplier-specific example)
Supplier-specific example; the exact toll hold or charge depends on the selected product and current supplier terms. It is a separate toll line from the damage deposit and the fuel amount, settled against actual toll usage.
- Card requirement
- Accepted card types and cardholder requirements vary by supplier and product. Verify the payment-card section of the final offer and voucher.
- Contractual liability
- Liability for damage remains in the rental contract even when nothing is blocked on the card.
What this means in practice
- A €0 damage deposit does not mean no money can be held at all: fuel and toll amounts are separate lines.
- Marketplace reimbursement cover pays you back after a claim. It does not automatically remove the supplier's own collection deposit.
- Availability changes by date, product and counter. Re-check the final checkout page before paying.
