Will I face unexpected charges at the Payless counter in Moncton when I book through Hola Car Rentals?
No. With Hola Car Rentals, all costs and charges for your Payless booking in Moncton are clearly shown at the time of reservation and in your confirmation email, so you know exactly what you are paying before you arrive at the Payless counter.
On top of that, every Hola Car Rentals booking includes the No Extra Charges© guarantee. This is a pricing guarantee (not insurance) that protects you if the Payless counter in Moncton charges you for something that was not listed on your confirmation and was not an optional add-on you accepted. If that happens, Hola Car Rentals will work with Payless to remove or reimburse the charge after verification.
The only costs outside this guarantee are:
- Optional add-ons you choose at the counter (GPS, child seats, prepaid fuel)
- Usage-based charges (tolls, fuel shortfall, traffic fines)
Are there toll roads I need to worry about when driving a Payless rental car in Moncton?
No, there are no toll roads in New Brunswick, so driving your Payless rental car in and around Moncton is completely toll-free. You will not need a transponder, a toll pass, or any toll program for local travel.
This is one of the practical advantages of renting in Moncton compared to provinces like Ontario, which operates the 407 ETR toll highway, or routes involving the Confederation Bridge to Prince Edward Island, which carries a round-trip fee of approximately CADUS$ 50.25.
If your trip extends beyond New Brunswick into other Canadian provinces, check the toll requirements for each province you plan to visit, as policies vary significantly across Canada.
What documents do I need to pick up my Payless rental car in Moncton?
To collect your Payless rental car in Moncton, you must bring the following physical documents to the counter:
- A valid, original driver's license in the main driver's name
- A major credit card with the driver's name printed on the card, for the security deposit hold
- A passport or valid government photo ID
- Your booking confirmation or printed voucher
- Round-trip flight or cruise tickets if you are visiting from abroad
If your driver's license is not in English and does not use a Latin alphabet (for example, Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, or Cyrillic script), an International Driving Permit (IDP) is mandatory. For licenses in other non-English scripts, an IDP is strongly recommended. The IDP is a translation only and must be carried alongside your original license.
All documents presented at the Payless counter in Moncton must be physical originals. Digital copies on a phone or tablet are not accepted.
How does the security deposit work for a Payless rental in Moncton?
When you pick up your Payless rental car in Moncton, the counter agent will place a temporary authorization hold on your credit card. In Canada, this hold is typically CADUS$ 300 to CADUS$ 500, though some locations may require up to approximately CADUS$ 750 depending on the vehicle class and specific location policies.
Important things to know about the deposit:
- The hold is not a charge; it temporarily reduces your available credit until it is released after you return the vehicle
- Only a major credit card with the driver's name printed on the card is accepted. Debit cards, prepaid cards, and virtual cards are not accepted for the deposit
- After you return the Payless vehicle in Moncton, the hold is released, but your bank controls when it appears back on your account, which can take up to 15 business days
- Bring a backup credit card in case your primary card is declined
Notify your bank before travel to prevent fraud blocks on in-person authorizations in Canada.
Does Hola Car Rentals offer Tolls Cashback for Payless rentals in Moncton?
Yes, all bookings through Hola Car Rentals include Tolls Cashback, and this applies to your Payless rental in Moncton even though New Brunswick itself has no toll roads.
If your trip takes you beyond New Brunswick into provinces with tolls, such as Ontario or across the Confederation Bridge to Prince Edward Island, you can claim back up to 5% of your total Hola Car Rentals booking value for tolls paid during the rental period.
To claim your cashback after returning your Payless vehicle:
- Email [email protected] within 30 days of returning the car
- Use the subject line: Tolls Cashback, followed by your reservation number
- Attach your Hola Car Rentals booking confirmation, the signed rental agreement, and a receipt or statement showing the toll charges paid
Refunds are processed to the original payment method and typically take 7 to 10 business days after approval. Submissions received after 30 days are not accepted.
Do I need an International Driving Permit to rent from Payless in Moncton?
It depends on your license. For most visitors renting from Payless in Moncton, a valid foreign driver's license is generally accepted in Canada. However, an International Driving Permit (IDP) is mandatory if your license uses a non-Latin alphabet, such as Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, or Cyrillic script.
If your license is in a Latin-based language other than English, an IDP is strongly recommended as a translation aid, though not strictly required in all cases.
Key rules to remember:
- The IDP is a translation document only. It is not a standalone license and must always be carried together with your original driver's license
- Obtain your IDP in your home country before traveling to Moncton, as it cannot be issued abroad
- All documents presented at the Payless counter in Moncton must be physical originals, not digital copies
When in doubt, obtaining an IDP before your trip is the safest approach to ensure a smooth pickup at the Payless counter in Moncton.
What are the driving rules in Moncton that Payless renters should know?
Moncton has several driving characteristics that can catch first-time visitors off guard, especially in the downtown core where your Payless rental will be navigating local streets.
Key rules and local conditions to be aware of:
- Downtown Moncton uses complex one-way street systems on roads like Main Street, Queen Street, and Assumption Boulevard. Lane markings are strictly enforced, and dedicated turn-only lanes prohibit straight travel even when traffic is light
- Speed limits are strictly enforced, with 60 km/h zones clearly signed. Exceeding these limits, particularly near highway on-ramps and turn junctions, can result in immediate fines
- Pedestrian yielding is expected even on quieter streets. Complete stops are required at stop signs regardless of traffic conditions
- The Trans-Canada Highway (Route 2) passes through the Moncton area. Some sections have temporary two-way traffic configurations during ongoing twinning upgrades, with substandard curves at certain points east of River Glade
- Some arterial roads have shared lanes used by cyclists and pedestrians, requiring extra caution
Familiarizing yourself with these local conditions before driving your Payless rental in Moncton will help you avoid fines and navigate confidently.
Can I add an additional driver to my Payless rental in Moncton?
Yes, you can add an additional driver to your Payless rental in Moncton, but the additional driver must be present at the counter at the time of pickup with their own valid driver's license.
For Payless rentals in Moncton, the additional driver fee is US$13 per rental day plus applicable taxes, with a maximum charge of US$65 plus taxes. Note that for Payless, the additional driver must be at least 25 years old at the time of pickup.
If your Hola Car Rentals booking confirmation states that an additional driver is included at no charge, confirm this with the Payless agent in Moncton before signing the rental agreement.
Important requirements for adding a driver:
- The additional driver must be physically present at the Payless counter in Moncton
- They must present a valid driver's license and any required IDP if applicable
- Both the main driver and the additional driver must sign the rental agreement
- Only drivers listed on the agreement are covered by the rental protections
Never allow an unlisted person to drive the vehicle, as this can void your coverage.
What insurance coverage is included with a Payless rental in Moncton?
When renting from Payless in Moncton, Canadian provincial law requires every rental vehicle to carry third-party liability insurance by default. This statutory liability coverage is included when you book through Hola Car Rentals in Canada, though you can purchase higher supplemental liability limits if desired.
For damage to the rental vehicle itself, Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) or Loss Damage Waiver (LDW) coverage reduces your financial liability if the Payless car is damaged or stolen. Check your Hola Car Rentals booking confirmation to see whether CDW/LDW is included in your rate and whether a deductible applies.
Key coverage distinctions to understand:
- CDW/LDW covers damage to the Payless rental vehicle, subject to any deductible shown on your confirmation
- Third-party liability (LIS/ALI/SLI) covers injury or property damage you cause to others while driving in Moncton
- CDW/LDW does not cover tires, undercarriage, roof, or personal belongings
- Coverage applies only to drivers named on the rental agreement
Review your rental agreement carefully at the Payless counter in Moncton to confirm all coverage details before driving away.
What is the Travel Assistance benefit included with my Payless booking in Moncton?
Most Hola Car Rentals bookings include Travel Assistance provided by Terrawind Global Protection, and this applies to your Payless rental in Moncton. However, this benefit is available only to non-North American customers. Canadian and US residents do not qualify for this benefit.
For eligible customers, Travel Assistance covers scenarios such as a medical emergency while driving your Payless rental on Route 2 near Moncton, a vehicle breakdown in a remote area of New Brunswick, or a flight cancellation affecting your trip.
Core benefits typically include:
- Travel insurance with medical coverage for up to 5 passengers
- Legal assistance in case of an accident
- Compensation for luggage lost by the airline
- Flight cancellation insurance
To use the assistance, contact Terrawind 24 hours a day, 7 days a week at +1 888 980 9992 (toll-free) or via WhatsApp at +1 208 910 1001. Provide your full name, your Hola Car Rentals confirmation number, your location near Moncton, and a description of the situation. Always contact them before incurring expenses where prior authorization is required.
Check your booking confirmation for the exact coverage terms applicable to your Payless reservation.
What is the fuel policy for Payless car rentals in Moncton?
Payless rentals in Moncton follow a Full-to-Full fuel policy. You receive the vehicle with a full tank and must return it full to avoid additional charges.
Steps to follow to avoid fuel charges:
- At pickup, check the fuel gauge with the Payless agent and confirm the starting level is recorded on the rental agreement
- Take a photo of the dashboard showing the odometer and fuel gauge at the start of the rental in Moncton
- Refuel within approximately 15 km of the return location so the gauge does not drop before you arrive
- Keep your final fuel receipt showing the date, time, and station address
- For after-hours returns, leave the receipt in the return envelope and keep a photo of the full gauge
If you return the Payless vehicle in Moncton below the recorded starting level, you may be charged for the fuel shortfall at the partner's refueling rate, which is typically higher than the pump price, plus a refueling service fee. Returning the car full is always the most cost-effective option.
Can I pick up my Payless rental in Moncton at Greater Moncton International Airport (YQM)?
Yes, rental car counters serving Moncton are located at Greater Moncton International Airport (YQM) at 777 Aviation Drive, Dieppe, NB. Counters are situated inside the terminal near the baggage claim area, and vehicles are typically accessible just outside the terminal or via a short shuttle to the rental area.
When collecting your Payless rental at YQM in Moncton:
- Follow the car rental signs from the baggage claim area to the counter
- Present your booking confirmation, driver's license, passport, and credit card
- Confirm the vehicle condition and fuel level before leaving the lot
Counter hours at YQM vary by company. As a general reference, airport rental counters in Moncton may operate from early morning until after midnight on weekdays, with reduced hours on weekends. Confirm the specific Payless hours for your travel dates directly on your booking confirmation, as hours can change on holidays.
For after-hours returns at the Moncton airport, you can typically park and lock the vehicle, record the mileage and fuel level on your agreement, and use the key drop box. Keep a photo of the dashboard and the completed agreement for your records.
Can I rent a Payless car in Moncton and return it in a different city?
Yes, one-way rentals are possible with Payless, allowing you to pick up in Moncton and return the vehicle in a different city. However, a drop-off fee may apply depending on the route, and not all routes are permitted.
What to expect with a one-way Payless rental from Moncton:
- The drop-off fee is route-specific and varies by destination, vehicle class, and season
- During the booking process on the Hola Car Rentals website, any applicable drop-off fee will be shown under the "To pay at destination" section on the rate details page
- This fee cannot be prepaid and is settled at the Payless counter in Moncton or at the return location
- Cross-border one-way rentals, such as returning the car in the United States, may be restricted or carry significantly higher fees. Confirm with the Payless agent in Moncton before booking
If the drop-off fee shown at the Payless counter in Moncton differs from what appeared on your Hola Car Rentals confirmation, keep all paperwork and contact Hola Car Rentals support, as the No Extra Charges© guarantee may apply to undisclosed fees.
What happens if I arrive late for my Payless pickup in Moncton?
If you arrive late for your scheduled Payless pickup in Moncton, your reservation will generally be held for up to 24 hours from the original pickup time. If you do not collect the vehicle within that window, the booking may be forfeited with no refund.
For flight delays affecting your arrival at Greater Moncton International Airport (YQM):
- If the delay is less than 24 hours, the Payless counter in Moncton should hold your booking, provided you arrive during counter operating hours
- If the delay exceeds 24 hours, contact Hola Car Rentals via WhatsApp at +1 (786) 999-8312 or by email at [email protected] as soon as possible
It is important to confirm that you will arrive while the Payless counter in Moncton is still open. Airport rental counters have set operating hours, and arriving after closing time may mean the counter is unstaffed even if your booking is still technically active.
If you need to change your pickup time in advance, modifying your reservation before travel is the safest option to avoid losing your booking.
