Cash Car Rentals in Phoenix, AZ
No credit card? No debit card? No problem. Most rental companies turn cash customers away. We don't. At Phoenix Car Rental, you can rent a car with cash.
We're one of the few companies in Phoenix that takes cash for both your payment and your deposit. That makes renting easy.
What to Know About Cash Car Rentals
No Credit Check Required
We don't check your credit. We just need a few things:
- A valid driver's license
- Proof of your current address
- A return plane or bus ticket (if you're from out of state)
- The cash amount we quote you
Cash Rentals Are Unique
Cash rentals have a small extra fee on top of the base rate. Call us and we'll walk you through the rate, fees, and deposit.
Securing Your Rental
You pay the base rate plus taxes and fees. You also leave a cash deposit — a bit more than the rental cost. When you bring the car back, you get the leftover deposit back in cash.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I rent a car with cash in Phoenix?
Yes. Phoenix Car Rental is one of the few rental car companies in the Phoenix area that allows you to rent a car with cash. You can use cash for both the rental payment and the security deposit — no credit or debit card is required.
Do you require a credit check for cash rentals?
No, we do not run a credit check. Instead, we ask that you provide a valid driver's license, your current address, and — if you are visiting from out of state — a return plane or bus ticket. This helps us verify your identity and get you on the road quickly.
What do I need to bring for a cash car rental?
Please bring a current, valid driver's license, proof of your current address, a return plane or bus ticket if you are from out of state, and the amount of cash specified by the person quoting your rental rate. The cash amount will cover the rental cost plus a security deposit.
Is there an extra fee for paying with cash?
There is an additional surcharge above the standard base rate for cash rentals. Because this is a unique service that very few rental companies offer, the surcharge helps cover the added risk of not having a card on file. Call us for current rates and a full breakdown of costs.
Where can I find cash car rentals near me?
If you're in the Phoenix metro area, Phoenix Car Rental is conveniently located near Sky Harbor International Airport. We also offer a free shuttle from the airport to our lot. Give us a call at (602) 904-3490 to reserve your cash car rental today.
What happens to my cash deposit when I return the car?
When you return the rented vehicle in good condition, any remaining deposit — the amount above the final rental cost — will be returned to you on the spot, also in cash. There's no waiting for a refund to process back to a card.
At Phoenix Car Rental, we will make every effort to rent to those who cannot qualify elsewhere. That said, final approval is up to the discretion of the rental agent.
