Would You Rent A Car With Bitcoin?

[Swordsoffreedom]

Travel agencies should always have different types of payment methods and Bitcoin should really be one of them. As Bitcoin can be considered as an International money, all I need to do to pay the agency is to take my phone out of my pocket rather than using paper money. which I might need afterwards as I’m travelling another country.

Definitely I would rent a car with bitcoin, considering the platfrom is a reputable one with good customer support for its users as well a physical company where one can easily connect with the team in a certain country. Barriers like this is what bitcoin was created to solve so people would be able to control their cash at any point in time. Although I haven't tried out renting a car before but if eventually I end up needing one for a quick purpose, definitely I would check out for platform like this.

Acutally, I think it is not possible to rent a car with Bitcoin payment or crypto in general. Furthermore, it is not going to be allowed in the near future I would guess due to a lot of governments are still rejecting the era of crypto. Possibly everything will change positively in a long term maybe after few years. For me, I would like  to use Bitcoin and even other crypto especially when I don't have cash .

Good customer support is going to be difficult, not saying it's impossible but if you think about it, companies that launch thinking about accepting crypto instead of regular payments don't usually have the customers best interests in mind, rather could be taken as a matter of "it's easier" instead, and what's easier in the support area is to not offer support or not offer a complete support experience. Maybe they'll enable a suggestion box for you to submit your complaint to and not much else.

On the other hand, a company that launches and has regular means to get paid, but also decides to include crypto might have a better chance to have good support. But that's just my opinion.

I strongly support any travel company that accepts cryptocurrency payments. Because for me who has several coins crypto really expects
many merchants to accept payments with cryptocurrency. Because in my opinion cryptocurrency very effective if used as payment. Suppose
I want a vacation abroad, so I don't have to bring fiat currency. Only by using a smartphone can I do financial transactions to pay for travel
agencies with cryptocurrency.

If there would be a company that will let us to rent a car using bitcoin then I will go for it there are a lot of advantage of using bitcoin in different aspect, and the use of bitcoin is much safer and faster than a fiat currency, but I think there will be no company that will let us to use bitcoin to rent a car because of its volatility, which makes their business fall if the market goes down, I don't think that they will let that thing happens.

Fiat currency is much prepared than cryptocurrency because it has a fixed price, so meaning to say there is a fix price of how much money you need in order to rent the car, which makes the company earn and make the inventory system well.

[ballerin and giroud]

If there is such an offer, and if it still carried some bonuses for me when paying with cryptocurrency, I would seriously consider this option. But most likely, I would use the good old cash or a plastic card, it is more convenient for me with them.

How you differentiate between payment system using money fiat and cryptocurrency because it will be same. If the rentcar owner ask you to pay $20 to rent his car for one day then you will also pay $20 in form of bitcoin for one day. So, is there any differentiate? There are several countries which have stated that bitcoin is money, it means there is no different between money fiat and bitcoin.

Hi guys, I'm working in the travel industry and recently found some global online travel agencies such as EasyRentCars start getting into crypto payments. I wonder how many crypto owners would be more interesting to purchase the service if the company accepts cryptocurrency? Would that be an effective feature?

Do you mean renting while on a holiday or actually leasing a car for months/years?

Maybe he mean for a day or for a week. I tried renting a car for family vacation but they only offer a maximum of 5 days, guess it depends on the company policy, I haven't try renting a car for a month. I think the crypto payment would not be that effective, why? simply because it is volatile, the payment for crypto will be just seasonal and that is when the market turns green and people already gained from it. So if you are looking for a travel industry feature, the best is the cheap price.

Undoubtedly, I also believe that the larger the range of services for cryptocurrency users using bitcoin, the faster the popularity of cryptocurrency and the number of its users will grow.  But if we consider the current situation in the cryptocurrency market, then for me personally, the service for using Bitcoin as a means of payment is not very important, because in my opinion bitcoin has not yet reached the value that I could give it for some services or some  things.  Of course, the infrastructure for using Bitcoin should be developed in any case, but at the moment I consider Bitcoin not as a means of payment, but as a profitable long-term investment.

I think it is not refundable when you rent a car with bitcoin. Right after I read this topic, I make a research and found this out https://www.e-zrentacar.com/blog/paying-for-your-car-rental-with-bitcoin/ .Yes I get the point of not bringing large amount of money on your pocket but I am still wondering what would I feel if bitcoin price rises. Of course I'll first regret because if I used fiat instead of crypto in that car rental, I already gain profit in my bitcoin.

If we are to consider Bitcoin as money, using it to pay for services shouldn't be hampered by possible value of the coin tomorrow. Another important thing to note is that when you pay for such rentals using Bitcoin there are no hidden charges or unnecessary debits from your bank as it is the case with paying through credit cards. In my own opinion, paying for rentals services with Bitcoin is an advantage to clients rather than the company.

[Viclassic]

Excellent!!
Left for me I would prefer to making transaction payments via blockchain so see a company that accepts bitcoin would do me more good and save me the stress of exchanger. And I will commend companies and rentals to adopt this method because BTC is taking over the economy

[NavI_027]

Adopting cryptocurrency in any kind of application will never be a bad decision. So for your question, of course! It was a good feature for car rentals to accept btc. Though only few will get relate to this for sure since this is a new technology, don't get tired of telling customers that you accept btc because it is already a big contribution for the mass adoption. Whether there is only one or even none used this kind of feature, that's okay at least you are promoting the btc after all . It will yield fruitful outcomes in the future.

Using bitcoin or any other crypto coin as a payment option for renting cars is no different from using fiat currency. Personally I have no problem using my bitcoin as a currency to rent a car. Considering the nature of Bitcoin and the car rental ecosystem, using bitcoin will not really change anything in terms of how transactions are made in order to rent a car. Using cryptocurrency will just introduction decentralization into the car rental industry and that will not really introduce anything different into this industry.

[Reatim]

I'd love to see some companies that accepts Bitcoin or other crypto when it comes to renting a car but I don't think that Bitcoin holders are likely to use their Bitcoin to rent a car.

because you are pointing to those Bitcoin Holders but things are different for those Bitcoin "Users" because these people(including me) are having Bitcoin not only to Hold but also to let it circulate so those are 2 different types of Bitcoiners.

Although there are some who agree, there will be some who are against this kind of idea for some reasons. For me, I would love too use Bitcoin for renting a car but at this moment I don't have any interest in cars so renting a car right now is not in my mind.

then let the users decide when time comes that they are need to choose in which to use either Fiat or Bitcoin and also there are limited places that offers accepting bitcoin for this service so i think many of us will love to try using Bitcoin even in this occasion only for experience in life.

[hajirkhalid2]

Yes I agree about rent a car with Bitcoin, u know that Bitcoin is the decentralized currency and it is used as payment gateway purchases and goods services etc.

[plvbob0070]

It's a pretty good idea for us especially most of us here have cryptocurrency. Adding cryptocurrency in the payment option has already been conducted by many companies and maybe not only focuses on accepting bitcoin and try to add more cryptocurrency. IMO, it will gonna be a waste of profit if you're going to use your bitcoin to rent a car instead of using fiat. It's better to use fiat currency than bitcoin but still, it depends on the people who will gonna rent the car. There's nothing wrong if you're going to use your bitcoin on that kind of transaction but the best option for me is to hold it. Since it's your bitcoin, you're free to do what you want but before spending it, you should try to analyze the situation first. You have to consider the market during the time you want to rent a car if it will be a good decision to use your bitcoin.

[elmag398]

Definitely, if the company permits such transaction. i am willing to do so. moreover it will be less stress on my side, since it won't reflect on my bank transaction statement.

[Arkann]

One way or another, I believe that every cryptocurrency user will have a positive attitude towards any possibilities of using cryptocurrency as a means of payment.  Only the expansion of the infrastructure, thanks to which it is possible to use bitcoin in everyday life without problems, will make cryptocurrency one of the most popular payment methods.

Right, everyone has their perspective. Although fiat is more effective, there are some people who choose bitcoin as an alternative payment, so please try, who knows can be an effective promotion to attract tourists or travellers who are also interested in crypto. Travel services and crypto, in my opinion, include a unique niche, many people take a tour to fill the holiday after passing through a tiring day, so this niche is never empty. And for foreign tourists, cryptocurrency is also very good as a payment if you have not had time to exchange money in force in the country, crypto can be a universal currency that applies anywhere as long as the situation and conditions support. However, if I have to choose, I prefer fiat for payment, because I consider crypto more effective for investment, another consideration is the volatile price.
