All our pricing includes GST and stripe transaction fees
To ensure our wheels are looked after, we also require a NZ$300 security bond. This is simply a pre-authorization that takes place on your credit card via Stripe at time of rental. This means that a NZ$300 hold is placed onto your credit card for the length of your rental. This is released once the items are returned as outlinned in our terms and conditions. If you would prefer to transfer the funds into our account rather than use Stripe and your credit card, simple contact us directly at [email protected]
