Generally, renters will get a basic level of cover included in the cost of their rental. However, there are exceptions, especially if you are a resident of Canada. A few credit card companies might offer damage and theft cover for rental cars. Should you decide to rely on that cover, you can book a basic package (sometimes called a standard package) that doesn't include damage and theft cover. On the other hand, you can book an inclusive package that does include damage and theft cover.
