Gravel Protection covers damages from gravel to your rental car, including the body, headlights, and windshield. It's crucial for Iceland's rough roads, which can be slippery and prone to accidents. Basic insurance has a gravel protection excess of €1000, Silver has €250, and both Gold and Platinum have zero excess.

The Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) limits your financial responsibility for damage to the rental car, covering most repair costs. All plans include CDW, ensuring peace of mind during your rental period.

Third-Party Liability Insurance covers damages to other vehicles or property in the event of an accident. It is included in all plans, offering comprehensive protection against third-party claims.

Theft Protection covers the rental car against theft, but it does not cover personal items stolen from the car. This ensures your rental vehicle is protected, but you should take care of your personal belongings.

The Super Collision Damage Waiver (SCDW) reduces your excess liability to €1000 in case of a collision. This is included in Gold and Platinum plans for enhanced protection.

Zero Excess means you have no financial liability in case of any damages to the rental car. This is available with the Platinum plan, ensuring complete peace of mind.

Sand and Ash Protection covers damage to the car’s paint, glass, lights and body caused by windblown sand and volcanic ash. Sandstorms are common on Iceland’s South Coast and in the highlands, and this kind of damage is not covered by standard CDW. It is included in the Platinum plan.

Tire Protection covers damages to the rental vehicle’s tires but does not cover the cost of replacing them. We take care of repairing the damaged tire or, if necessary, providing a new one. This coverage is included in the Platinum plan, ensuring comprehensive protection. Please note that Tire Protection applies only to tire damages and does not extend to roadside assistance or towing services.

Free Extra Driver allows you to add an additional driver at no extra cost, included in the Platinum plan for added convenience.

Free Car WiFi provides internet access on the go, included in the Platinum plan, ensuring connectivity throughout your trip.

Renting a car without a credit card can be tricky but it's not impossible! Most standard rental companies require you to sign for the vehicle with a major credit card, but many agencies now offer alternative payment methods.

With Go Car Rental you are easily able to rent a car without a credit card by simply purchasing our Zero excess insurance package - either the Gold or Platinum insurance.
