Your Republic Bank International Visa Gold Credit Card gives you peace of mind and saves you money by providing this free insurance coverage every time you use your card to rent a car.

What are the benefits and who is covered?

• When you use your Republic Bank International Visa Gold Credit Card to book a car and pay the full price of the rental, you are covered by this insurance. To access this coverage you must decline the Collision Damage Waiver (CDW/LDW) or similar coverage offered by the car rental company in its rental agreement.
  
  The Auto Rental Insurance covers up to the full cost of repair or replacement of a rental vehicle in the event of:

  • damage due to collision or theft of the vehicle
  • malicious vandalism against the car
  • documented valid loss-of-use charges imposed by the car rental company.

  This coverage applies anywhere in the world, including your country of residence in Latin America and the Caribbean (where allowed by local laws), and will be in effect while the vehicle is in the possession of any authorized driver specifically mentioned in the car rental agreement. Coverage will expire as soon as the rented vehicle is returned to the car rental company or 31 days after the date of rental.
  Coverage also applies to car rentals that are redeemed with points generated through
  Visa card loyalty programs, provided all taxes and surcharges are paid with the Republic Bank International Visa Platinum Credit Card.
