Even if Costco doesn't have the best pricing, I like that it exists so that there's competition and keeps prices lower for consumers.
Community Reviews
Costco Travel car rentals can pair competitive pricing with a $25 Shop Card, especially when the reservation is already close to the best direct rate. The booking flow is flexible, with no money up front, easy cancel and rebook options, and the price shown matching the final total. Some rentals have beaten direct and Priceline or Alamo quotes by a meaningful margin, and the Shop Card has arrived by email in about two weeks. The main catches are that qualifying vehicle classes matter, some dates only show larger cars, and the promotion can nudge prices higher or fail to beat direct booking after taxes and fees.
Common Questions (5)
Often yes, but not always. Some rentals were cheaper through Costco than direct with Enterprise or Alamo, and one comparison found Costco beat Priceline by about $40 on a 3-day SUV rental after counting the $25 Shop Card; another found direct pricing became more expensive once taxes and fees were added.
Yes. Costco rentals can be canceled anytime with no money up front, so you can rebook if the price drops; one shopper said this has saved hundreds over time, though a rebook can also come back higher.
It can still be worth checking, but the Shop Card may not apply if your booking uses an employer discount or the wrong vehicle class. Even without the card, some shoppers still saved money versus direct booking.
The qualifying classes matter: full-size or larger were offered for some dates, and booking a standard car instead of full size reportedly missed the reward even when the price was the same. Double-check the eligible vehicle class before reserving.
The digital Shop Card can arrive by email about 16 days after return, though one report was still waiting at the 2-week mark. Expect roughly two to three weeks for delivery.

This is isn't even funny— this is pure deception by these companies.
There's a reason why legislation is being passed in some states for "All-in" pricing models. It's to prevent deceptive "drip pricing" practices such as these.
Call this out every time so that consumers get in motion toward real price transparency.
