Payless Car Rental Senior Discount
Quick answer: Payless Car Rental doesn’t give a discount for age alone. AARP members (50 and up) get savings on base rates plus a free one-class upgrade when they book a compact through full-size car. Book through AARP’s Payless page so the member rate is applied.
What the Payless AARP deal includes
- Lower base rates. AARP no longer lists a fixed percentage. The older “5% off” figure you’ll see on some lists isn’t how AARP describes it now.
- A free upgrade on compact, intermediate, standard and full-size bookings, when a bigger car is available.
- Taxes and fees still apply in full.
How to book the senior rate at Payless
- Sign in at aarp.org and open the Payless page under Travel, Car Rentals.
- Follow the link to Payless so your AARP rate is attached to the booking.
- Bring your AARP card to the counter in case they ask for it.
Compare before you book
Payless is the budget brand of Avis Budget Group. AARP members can get up to 35% off base rates at Avis and Budget with Pay Now, which sometimes beats the Payless price. Our tip: check all three for the same dates and pick the lowest total, not the lowest daily rate.
