Rental desks push a super-CDW / excess waiver that is usually the most expensive way to get cover. Check before you reach the desk.

What cover do you already have?

Figures are typical, approximate 2026 benchmarks for a standard car, not quotes. Counter super-CDW, standalone excess policies and card cover vary by supplier, car class and date, so always confirm the exact figure at booking. This tool compares the damage/excess waiver only, not compulsory third-party liability. Built by CarPriceRadar.
