By using our website or services, you agree to these Terms.
1. Eligibility
You must be at least 18 years old and able to form a legally binding contract to use our services. For self-drive rentals, you must hold a valid driver's license recognized in the Philippines and meet our identity-verification requirements.
2. Services
We provide vehicle rental (self-drive and with-driver), airport transfers, city and province tours, and related transport services. Vehicle availability, rates, and inclusions are described on the site and confirmed at booking.
3. Bookings and quotes
- Prices shown during booking are estimates. The final, authoritative price is calculated and confirmed by us at checkout.
- A booking is confirmed only once payment (or the required deposit) is received and you receive a confirmation with a booking reference.
- We may decline or cancel a booking where a vehicle becomes unavailable, verification fails, or we reasonably suspect fraud or misuse.
4. Payment, deposits, and fees
Payments are processed in Philippine Pesos (PHP) through our payment provider, PayMongo, which supports GCash, Maya, GrabPay, cards, and online banking. A refundable security deposit may be required. You are responsible for tolls, fuel (for self-drive), traffic violations, and other charges incurred during the rental, as applicable.
5. Identity verification (KYC)
To protect customers and our fleet, we require valid government identification and (for self-drive) a driver's license, which our team reviews before release of a vehicle. We may refuse service if verification cannot be completed. See our Privacy Policy for how these documents are handled.
6. Cancellations, no-shows, and refunds
Cancellation and refund terms are presented at booking and may vary by vehicle and service. No-shows and late cancellations may forfeit the deposit or incur fees. Refunds, where due, are returned via the original payment method.
7. Use of vehicles
- Vehicles must be used lawfully and only by the approved driver(s); subleasing or unauthorized transfer is prohibited.
- Smoking, illegal activities, overloading, off-road misuse, and use under the influence of alcohol or drugs are prohibited.
- Vehicles must be returned at the agreed time, place, and condition, with fuel as agreed.
- You are responsible for traffic and parking violations incurred during your rental period.
8. Damage, loss, and insurance
You are responsible for loss of or damage to the vehicle and its accessories during your rental period, except for fair wear and tear or to the extent covered by applicable insurance. Any incident, accident, or theft must be reported to us and the proper authorities immediately.
9. Disclaimers and limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, our services and website are provided "as is" without warranties of any kind. We are not liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential damages, or for losses arising from events beyond our reasonable control. Our total liability for any claim relating to a booking shall not exceed the amount you paid for that booking. Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot be excluded under Philippine law.

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless JPA Car Rental & Transport OPC, its owner, and staff from claims, damages, and expenses arising from your breach of these Terms, your use of a vehicle, or your violation of any law or the rights of a third party.
