About Eversure

Eversure has been providing specialist insurance since 2008 and in that time has helped more than half a million customers find cover.

Today, Eversure remains a UK-owned family business, providing insurance for cameras, bicycles and caravans, alongside UK and European breakdown cover and, of course, car hire excess insurance.

We know that insurance can sometimes feel unnecessarily complicated, particularly when it comes to understanding exactly what you are and aren’t covered for. That’s why Eversure focuses on providing straightforward information about its policies, what they cover and how much they cost.

What is Car Hire Excess Insurance?

When you hire a car, the rental agreement will usually include an excess. This is the amount you are responsible for paying towards the cost of damage or theft and depending on the rental agreement, this can be hundreds or even thousands of pounds.

You may be offered an excess waiver by the rental company when collecting your vehicle although these tend to be pricey and limited in coverage, typically excluding vulnerable parts of the vehicle like the wheels, undercarriage and glass. Alternatively, you can arrange a separate car hire excess insurance policy before you travel.

With Eversure car hire excess insurance, if your rental company charges you for an eligible excess following damage or theft, you can make a claim to be reimbursed for this amount, subject to the terms and conditions of your policy.

Eversure Car Hire Excess Insurance

Eversure offers both single trip and annual car hire excess insurance. A single trip policy covers one continuous rental period, whereas annual cover can be used across multiple eligible rentals throughout the year. This can make annual cover more suitable if you regularly hire cars for holidays, weekends away or other trips.

What's Included**

**Please see your policy wording for a full list of what's included as well as any exclusions and eligibility criteria.

As with any insurance policy, there are limits and exclusions, so you should always check the policy wording before purchasing to make sure the cover is suitable for you and your rental.
