You Can Get 30-50% Off Your First Rental…

A first time renter can enter FIRST30 for 30% off their first car rental (through March 21st 2017), even on just a one day rental. If you’re renting two days or more you’ll get 50% off when you download the app. It should be automatic. 50% off would mean a rate of $39.50 per day. That’s awesome, but you can take it lower. If you don’t automatically get the 50% applied in the app you can enter LOUNGEBUDDY for 1 day free FACEBOOK50 for $50 off first rental.

You Get $25 For Being Referred…

If you’re referred by someone you get $25 off your first rental, in the form of a online Visa Gift Card when the rental completes. If you download the Silvercar app, hit referral and enter GOTT4, you’ll get $25 after your first rental and so will I (thanks in advance). Once you’ve been referred you can then start referring others, so you can pool your discount with someone in the future.

So My Wife Got 30% Off Her First Rental And We Both Got $25 Back…

With all taxes and fees our one day rental (11AM to 11AM, any 24 hour increment) came to $64.62, including the 30% discount. Since we both received $25 Visa Gift Cards, the rental was effectively $14.62 (after $50 back), a steal of a deal. After using our referral you can begin to refer others for rentals thereafter, so you’ll be able to duplicate the discount on future bookings!

Why Silvercar Is Awesome, Aside From The Car…

Silvercar has some nifty features that really separate it from the market. There’s unlimited mileage, simple insurance and after your first rental you can unlock you car without speaking to anyone, using a QR code scanned via your phone. It’s very James Bond. For those in a hurry, the gas feature is perhaps the most innovative. Rather than getting hosed on fuel, paying top dollar, you pay a simply flat $5 service fee for them to fill up the tank, but unlike other rental companies you pay market rate. Whatever it would cost you to fill up is what they charge, so you’re just paying $5 in convenience for the same thing as taking your own time to fill up.
