Completed registration is conditioned by stating the identity of the tenant, including a scan of a valid ID card and driver's license, and at the same time by depositing a valid payment card such as Visa or MasterCard, through which the rental is paid after its termination. When adding a payment card, the amount of CZK 1 is deducted to verify the validity of the card, which is immediately returned. Payment card details are not processed in any way by the Lessor. The data is securely stored at the bank providing the payment gateway: ČSOB, as, IČ: 00001350. If the withdrawal of the amount of CZK 1 cannot be carried out, it is not possible to use the application functions, especially car reservations. If the entire registration is successfully completed, reservations can be made at any time. When booking, a calendar is used that displays the currently available cars for the selected period, including their location and approximate rental price.
