Will the start-up fee be charged despite cancelling my vehicle booking?

No. The start fee is only charged when you start driving or after the first free 5 minutes before you start the engine. The amount of PLN 10 or a one-off daily fee (pre-authorisation), depending on your chosen offer, will be released after cancellation and will increase the balance on your account (pre-authorisation of funds). The blocking of funds does not imply their withdrawal, and their release is not the same as their return to your account, so you will not see any income on your account; however, your account balance will increase by the amount of the blocked pre-authorisation fee.

If I want to have a lower night parking rate, do I have to make my booking after 11:00 p.m.?

It does not matter when you make your booking. A lower parking rate is charged automatically from Monday to Sunday, from 11:00 p.m. to 7:00 a.m., so when you start your rental before 11:00 p.m., and you start parking after 11:00 p.m., a lower parking rate will be charged.

What is the difference between a fee for the kilometre covered and a parking fee?

If you use Traficar vehicle and the engine is on, we charge a fee for the kilometres covered. Whereas, a parking fee is charged when you park the car, switch the ignition off and do not terminate your rental.

If I choose the “For 24h or longer” offer and end my rental before the end of the day, I will still pay the higher start fee?

Yes. The fee is charged in advance for each commenced 24-hour period. The “For 24h or longer” offer is a good solution not only if you are planning a longer route, e.g. to another city, but also if you need a car for a few hours. You cannot change the selected Offer during the rental

How will the fee for using Traficar be collected?

In order to use Traficar cars, you must link a valid payment card with a Visa or Mastercard logo to your account. The travel fees will be pre-authorised (blocked) on an ongoing basis during the rental period. The rules for pre-authorising funds on your payment card can be found here.Remember that you must have internet, telephone and correspondence transactions unlocked and ensure that there are sufficient funds for these types of transactions on your card. Your card should be valid for a minimum of 31 days. You should also pay attention to the daily limits on your card, which can also cause problems with payment collection. Most banks allow you to manage your limits and transactions on their website or in their mobile app. Having an active, linked voucher in the Traficar app in the Promotions – Discounts tab does not exempt you from linking your payment card to the Traficar service. Any blocked funds (pre-authorisations) for rental will be blocked on your linked payment card. The voucher will only be honoured at the end of your rental. Don’t worry, all blocked funds will be released or if the rental amount was more than the value of the voucher we will refund you the difference.
