KEY TERMS & POLICIES

The following terms apply to all rentals and must be reviewed and agreed to prior to vehicle pickup.

1a. Rental Duration and Charges

By starting and continuing a rental beyond the initial reservation period, the renter authorizes additional charges under the terms of the rental agreement.

The renter is responsible for all rental charges for each day the vehicle remains in their possession and has not been properly returned in accordance with the return instructions, regardless of whether the vehicle is being used, parked, inactive, or requires coordination with Bezzemi Luxury for return.

If the vehicle cannot be driven for any reason, the renter must immediately contact Bezzemi Luxury to arrange return or retrieval. Rental charges will continue until the vehicle is returned or recovered.

2a. Identification and Verification

A valid driver’s license and current mailing address must be submitted prior to pickup.

At the time of pickup, the renter must complete a verification photo showing:

  • The renter’s driver’s license

  • The renter’s face

  • The vehicle’s license plate

This verification photo will be attached to the rental agreement as part of the official rental record.

3a. Rideshare and Delivery Use

If the vehicle will be used for rideshare or delivery purposes, the renter must provide proof of an active Uber, Lyft, or delivery account prior to pickup.

Bezzemi Luxury is not responsible for any suspension, deactivation, or limitation of the renter’s access to rideshare or delivery platforms.

4a. Insurance Requirements

Proof of insurance must be submitted prior to pickup and must remain active for the full duration of the rental.

Coverage must be valid for rental use and the renter’s intended use, including rideshare or delivery if applicable.

Failure to maintain active coverage may result in service interruption, remote vehicle disablement, and/or forfeiture of any deposit.

Accepted coverage includes:

  • Personal full coverage insurance (must include comprehensive and collision)

  • Rental or gig coverage (e.g., withhugo.com or rentalcover.com)

  • Credit card rental coverage (subject to verification and approval)

The renter is solely responsible for confirming that their coverage applies to rental use, third-party damages, injuries, and any applicable commercial use.

5a. Payment and Authorization

The payment method used must match the renter’s legal name as shown on their driver’s license. Third-party payments are not permitted.

A reservation is not secured until payment has been successfully completed.

The full pickup address will be provided after payment is received.

The renter must confirm authorization by sending “I authorize this charge” as a standalone message to approve:

  • The initial rental charge

  • Any rental extensions

  • Any applicable fees under the agreement

Rental extensions may be automatically invoiced while the vehicle remains in the renter’s possession.

The vehicle must be returned to the original pickup location unless otherwise approved.

At return, the vehicle must be:

  • At the same fuel level as received

  • Clean and free of excessive dirt or debris

Unauthorized travel outside the approved area may result in additional charges, vehicle system interruption, and account review.

If tolls or related fees are incurred during the rental, the renter is responsible for payment. These charges may be:

  • Invoiced to the renter
    Charged to the payment method on file

  • Transferred to the renter by the toll authority

9a. Non-Payment and Enforcement

Failure to make payment or return the vehicle as agreed may result in:

  • Remote vehicle disablement

  • Repossession

  • Forfeiture of any deposit

If the vehicle is not returned and payment is not made, the rental may be reported as stolen and local authorities may assist in recovery.

Unpaid balances may result in legal action, including court claims.

10a. Emergencies

If the renter experiences an emergency that affects payment or the ability to return the vehicle, the renter must notify Bezzemi Luxury immediately so that appropriate arrangements can be made.

11a. Scheduling and Timing

The reservation start time is defined in the signed rental agreement and remains in effect regardless of the renter’s arrival time.

Any requested changes to the reservation must be communicated prior to payment and arrival and are subject to approval.

For weekly rentals, the first week may be prorated depending on the start date, after which the standard billing cycle will apply.

12a. Signature Requirements

The renter’s signature and initials must match the name and format shown on the renter’s driver’s license.

If the signature does not match, updated documents will be issued for re-signing.

Updated agreements may be required periodically (typically every 14 to 30 days) for compliance purposes.

2. RENTAL TERM & RESERVATION END TIME

2.1 Rental Term
The rental term begins at the date and time the Rental Property is released to Renter and continues until the Reservation End Time, unless properly extended in accordance with this Agreement.
Renter acknowledges that possession or continued use of the Rental Property after the Reservation End Time without compliance constitutes unauthorized use.

2.2 Reservation End Time
“Reservation End Time” is the exact date and time shown in Lessor’s reservation system and communicated to Renter by email, text, invoice, or agreement documentation.
Reservation End Time is a firm deadline and is not flexible, implied, or subject to grace unless expressly stated in writing by Lessor.

2.3 Payment Deadline
All rental charges, extensions, fees, and balances must be paid in full before the Reservation End Time.
Payment is deemed received only when a successful receipt is issued by the payment processor. Pending payments, partial payments, payment promises, screenshots, or intent to pay do not constitute payment.

2.4 Effect of Expiration
If payment is not completed before the Reservation End Time:
(a) the rental immediately enters Non-Compliant Status;
(b) late fees may accrue;
(c) coverage or program (DCCP) may lapse;
(d) extension rights are forfeited; and
(e) Lessor may exercise any remedies available under this Agreement, including vehicle pause, recovery, or termination, without notice.

2.5 No Implied Extensions
No extension is implied by continued possession, prior course of dealing, verbal statements, or delayed enforcement.
Only written confirmation from Lessor, combined with full payment and execution of updated documentation, constitutes a valid extension.

3. PAYMENTS, CLOSED HOURS, FEES & SATURDAY REOPENING

3.1 Payment Obligations
Renter must maintain a valid payment method on file at all times. Failure to do so constitutes Non-Compliant Status.
Renter is responsible for timely payment of all rental charges, extensions, fees, taxes, reimbursements, and other amounts due under this Agreement.
All payments must be completed in full before the applicable Reservation End Time to maintain Active Rental status.

3.2 Method of Payment
Payments are accepted only through Lessor’s approved payment systems.
Payment is considered made only when a successful receipt is issued by the payment processor. Pending transactions, partial payments, screenshots, payment confirmations without receipts, or statements of intent to pay do not constitute payment.

3.3 Closed Hours (No Payments or Processing)
Bezzemi Luxury does not accept, review, approve, or process payments during designated Closed Hours.

Closed Hours include, but are not limited to:

• Fridays from 5:00 PM to Sunday at 12 AM (a 2-day payment is required every Friday before 5 PM) 

• Any additional closure dates or hours communicated in advance by text or email with required amount of days to extend to keep rental active during closure days


During Closed Hours:
(a) payments are not processed;
(b) extensions are not approved;

(c) billing issues are not reviewed; and

(d) rental status does not change.

(e) roadside assistance is limited to emergencies and must be initiated through Lessor’s designated roadside assistance provider.

(e) required payment is to be made for the amount of days of the closure and the amount of days and the closure days will be notified to Renter prior


Renter acknowledges that Bezzemi Luxury is routinely closed from Friday evening through Saturday evening, and exact reopening times may vary and will be communicated to Renter.

3.4 Closure Fee
Any attempt by Renter to submit, initiate, schedule, or request payment during Closed Hours will result in a $50 Closure Fee.
The Closure Fee applies regardless of whether the payment succeeds or fails and is assessed as an administrative charge for off-hours system interaction.
The Closure Fee is non-negotiable and is separate from late fees or other charges.
Fees are subject to adjustment based on operational costs unless expressly fixed in this Agreement.

3.5 Late Fees
A $25 late fee applies immediately once payment becomes late and may accrue daily until all outstanding balances are paid in full.
Late fees accrue independently of Closed Hours and do not pause during closure periods.
Late Fees do not constitute payments towards your CDW coverage, nor applicable programs, nor your normal rental cost. It is an admin fee to compensate Staff for administering late payments or working after business hours due to late payments, or any other administrative reason.
If a Reservation End Time occurs during Closed Hours and payment was not completed prior to closure, both the applicable late fee and Closure Fee may be assessed.
Lessor maintains regularly scheduled closure periods during which payments are not accepted. If a reservation expires during a closure period and payment was not completed prior to closure, applicable late fees and closure fees may both apply.

3.6 Sunday Reopening & Hard Cutoff
Payments may resume after reopening on Sunday at 12 AM to remain compliant and continue the rental.
Failure to pay by on Sunday by your due time results in Non-Compliant Status and authorizes Lessor to exercise remedies under this Agreement without notice.

3.7 No Waiver or Exception
Prior acceptance of late payments, courtesy reminders, or temporary leniency does not modify this Agreement or create future exceptions.
All deadlines, fees, and enforcement rights remain in effect unless expressly waived in writing by Lessor.

3.8 Refunds
All payments are non-refundable unless the Lessor expressly agrees otherwise in writing. If refunds are agreed upon in writing, the Lessor will notify Renter as to how long the refund will take to arrive to Renter.

4. EXTENSIONS

4.1 Extension Requirements
An extension of the rental term is valid only when all of the following conditions are satisfied:
(a) Full payment for the requested extension period is completed before the applicable Reservation End Time; and 
(b) An updated rental agreement, invoice, or extension document is issued by Lessor and executed by Renter.

Both conditions must be met. Payment alone does not constitute an extension.
Renter authorizes Lessor to rely on Renter’s original electronic signature for execution of extension invoices, updated agreements, or addenda related to the same reservation, without requiring a new handwritten or wet signature.
Every 12 to 30 days we update the reservation number.
Renter may choose to opt out of saved signatures by requesting it in writing.

4.2 No Implied or Automatic Extensions
No extension shall be implied or inferred by:
• Continued possession or use of the Rental Property;
• Prior course of dealing or prior leniency;
• Verbal statements, text messages, or emails requesting an extension;
• Submission of payment without execution of updated documentation; or
• Delay by Lessor in enforcement actions.

Only written confirmation issued by Lessor, combined with timely payment and executed documentation, constitutes a valid extension.

4.3 Closed Hours & Extensions

No extensions are approved, reviewed, or processed during Closed Hours.
Requests to extend made during Closed Hours do not preserve rental status and do not delay enforcement.

(a) the rental immediately enters Non-Compliant Status;
(b) extension rights are forfeited;
(c) coverage may lapse;
(d) late fees may accrue; and
(e) Lessor may exercise any remedies available under this Agreement, including pause, recovery, termination, or legal enforcement, without notice.

Renter acknowledges and agrees that statements made to law enforcement officers, insurance representatives, claims adjusters, third parties, or any other person regarding the use of the Rental Property are binding for purposes of compliance and coverage.
Intent, private understanding, or after-the-fact explanations do not alter the effect of such statements.
Any statement made outside the scope of authorized personal use may void coverage and result in immediate enforcement actions.
Renter acknowledges and agrees to the Damage Cost Credit Program (DCCP) Addendum, if selected.
Default and Voidance of DCCP:

Any violation, breach, or failure to comply with any term or condition of the Rental Agreement, including but not limited to unauthorized drivers, prohibited use, failure to provide accurate information, or misuse of the vehicle, will immediately void participation in the Damage Cost Credit Program (DCCP).
In such an event, the renter remains fully responsible for the total cost of all damages without application of any DCCP credit.

(d) recover or repossess the Rental Property;

If Renter elects or is provided Collision Damage Waiver (“CDW”) coverage or credit program, Renter acknowledges and agrees that CDW or credit program:

7.7 Recommendation of Separate Liability Coverage
Renter acknowledges that Lessor has advised Renter to maintain their own personal auto insurance or non-owner liability insurance policy to cover bodily injury, property damage to others, and legal defense costs.
Failure to maintain such coverage is solely Renter’s responsibility and does not create liability for Lessor.

8. ACCIDENT, DAMAGE & INCIDENT PROCEDURE

Renter waives any claim arising from such cooperation.
Lessor may request assistance from law enforcement, towing services, or third-party recovery providers to recover the Rental Property.
Renter acknowledges that law enforcement or tow yard authorities may retain custody of the Rental Property pursuant to applicable law, and that such custody does not relieve Renter of financial responsibility.

The parties agree that such charges represent reasonable liquidated damages and not a penalty.

(a) the rental account may be permanently flagged or banned; 
(b) all outstanding balances become immediately due; 
(c) additional administrative or dispute handling fees may be assessed; and 
(d) Lessor may pursue collection or legal remedies.
