Book on Avis with a Visa card
Book hotels and tickets on Avis, instantly and with your own card
Book on Avis the simple way: get a virtual Visa card in minutes and pay for your booking on Avis directly, or order it and PayFar will make the Avis booking for you. Prices start at $7.99, and you see the final amount before you pay. No shared account, no hidden fees, real people on support.
What booking on Avis costs
Prices exactly as Avis charges them. Your card is billed in the same currency, and the conversion is quoted before you confirm, nothing is hidden in the spread.
PayFar charges no monthly fee on the card, you pay Avis only.
With a PayFar card, nobody needs your Avis login
Every other route asks you to hand over your Avis username and password, or to buy a login that belongs to someone else. PayFar issues a Visa card to you instead, you pay Avis yourself, from your own account.
Resellers and shared accounts
They pay on your behalf: with access to your account
- ✕They ask for your Avis email and password to pay for you
- ✕You wait hours: sometimes a day, for someone to process the order by hand
- ✕A middleman fee on top of the exchange rate, never itemised
- ✕One card funds dozens of accounts: they get flagged together
PayFar
You pay, yourself؛ we only issue the card
- ✓With the card you pay yourself: no username or password is ever handed to anyone
- ✓Pay Avis the moment you decide to: the charge clears instantly, at 3am if you like
- ✓No extra payment fee: just the rate of the day, shown before you confirm
Nobody logs into your Avis account but you. There is no shared password, no session on someone else's laptop, and nothing to revoke later.
You enter the card at Avis checkout and the charge settles from your balance in seconds. No order queue, no operator, no waiting for business hours.
Avis charges its own price and PayFar adds no payment fee and no monthly card fee. The conversion rate is quoted before you confirm.
What makes a Avis payment go through
Hotels and platforms place a hold on the card at booking and often a second at check-in. Avis needs a card that supports real authorisation holds, which is Visa behaviour, not voucher behaviour.
Front desks and airlines occasionally ask to see the paying card. When it carries your own name, that conversation lasts five seconds.
Free-cancellation rates are only actually free if the refund has somewhere to return. Your own card closes that loop; a borrowed payment method leaves the money in someone else's hands.

Book on ExpediaBooking on Avis: common questions
How much should I top up to book on Avis?
Avis plans: SiriusXM satellite radio (per rental day) $7.99/once, Child safety seat (per rental day, max $84 per rental) $14/once. Prices are exactly what Avis charges; PayFar adds no monthly card fee, and the conversion rate is quoted before you confirm.
How do I book on Avis with a Visa card?
Open a PayFar account; the virtual Visa card is issued in under 3 minutes. Top up at least $7.99, enter the card number, expiry and CVV at the Avis checkout, and set the billing country to the one on your PayFar profile. The charge clears in seconds.
How much extra balance does the authorisation hold need?
Plan for the booking total plus a night's worth of headroom. Holds release automatically after checkout or cancellation, the money was never spent, just reserved.
Can I book on Avis for someone else?
Yes: platforms ask for the traveller's name separately from the payer's. You pay with your card; the guest name on the booking is whoever is travelling.
Pay now or pay at the property?
Pay-now rates are usually cheaper and lock the price in dollars today. Pay-later still needs a valid card behind the reservation, the same card covers both.
