The announced partnership with The Hertz Corporation to power payments for its Hertz, Dollar, and Thrifty car rental brands.
In brief:
- To facilitate their ongoing partnership, Stripe and Hertz built a shared product roadmap to address specific payment needs including extended authorisations for weekly or monthly rentals.
- Stripe Terminal will be Hertz’s primary in-person checkout platform with BBPOS WisePOS E countertop and handheld readers accepting payments at approximately 3,000 locations.
- With Stripe, Hertz is rolling out Apple Pay for US rental purchases so customers will be able to use Apple Pay with the Hertz app and when booking a reservation on the Hertz website.
What does this mean?
“Customers expect fast, simple, and reliable car rentals,” said Eileen O’Mara, chief revenue officer at Stripe. “We’re thrilled that Stripe can help Hertz get its customers on the road more easily.”
