Paying for your SIXT car rental in the US is a breeze! We offer a variety of payment options to suit your preferences. Major credit cards are welcome, and we also accept debit cards at specific locations, depending on your location and the type of vehicle. If you've booked and paid in advance, just make sure to have the card you used at vehicle pick-up, and the cardholder should be present. We've got your payment covered, so you can focus on enjoying your journey with SIXT!
