Capital One Venture rental car insurance covers damage from collision or theft, up to the full cash value of most rental vehicles. It also covers towing to the nearest repair shop. To get Capital One Venture rental car insurance, you just need to pay for the rental with your Capital One Venture card and decline the rental company’s insurance. Coverage lasts for up to 15 days domestically and up to 31 days internationally.
The benefit will act as primary coverage if you don’t have car insurance. If you have car insurance, the benefit will act as supplemental coverage. International car rentals automatically receive the benefit as primary coverage. Damage must be reported within 45 days of the incident, and claims must be filed within 90 days.

It’s worth noting that the above information is accurate for Capital One Venture cards that are issued as Visa Signature cards. While Capital One Venture is issued on the Visa network, keep in mind that networks are subject to change.
Ultimately, the Capital One Venture rental car insurance could be a huge money-saver. It’s important to note that if you have another driver, they must be listed on the rental agreement, otherwise you will not be eligible to receive coverage.
