Frequently asked questions
Which car rental providers does Tripgic connect to?
Tripgic aggregates top global car rental providers with real-time fleet availability and dynamic rates, all returned through one normalized schema.
Are one-way rentals supported?

What vehicle types are available?
All classes — from economy and compact through SUVs, vans and luxury vehicles — filterable by class, transmission and seat count.
Can I add insurance and extras?
Yes. Ancillaries such as insurance, GPS and child seats are priced as part of the car offer.
Is the response format the same as flights and hotels?
Yes. Cars use the same normalized JSON schema as the rest of the Tripgic API, so you reuse your existing integration patterns.
