Why does Avis need an authorisation on your credit card?
"It is required by the banks that upon every rental which is to be debited to a credit card, authorisation is to be taken to ensure that there are sufficient funds available to pay for the rental. This authorisation is merely a hold for an amount on the credit card which is then released when the vehicle has been returned.
Due to the high risks of renting vehicles over the weekend, we take an additional authorisation to ensure that there are sufficient funds available should there be an incident with the vehicle.
