Abstract
A system (100) and method for processing a transaction between a user (106) and a rental vehicle provider is disclosed. The system (100) includes an input device (104), a communication device (202) and a processor (206). The input device (104) accepts rental data including vehicle identification data for a selected rental vehicle (102), and user data. The communication device (202) wirelessly communicates with a vehicle data unit (112) of the rental vehicle (102) identified by the vehicle identification data to obtain vehicle data therefrom. The processor (206) processes the user data and the vehicle data to produce an agreement for acceptance by the user (106) so that the agreement includes information derived from the user data and the vehicle data.
