PARSIPPANY, N.J.–(Marketwire – October 27, 2010) –  Budget Rent A Car, the brand that caters to savvy value-conscious travelers, has introduced its new “Budget Bucks Payback” promotion. Through March 31, 2011, Budget Fastbreak members who rent from Budget twice will receive $25 in Budget Bucks that can be used just like cash toward a future rental.

“By finding ways to add value, we can help our customers stretch their travel dollars,” said Becky Alseth, senior vice president of marketing for Avis Budget Group, parent company of Budget. “Budget Bucks Payback thanks our frequent renters for choosing Budget. We are confident that they will enjoy using these rewards with Budget.”

Customers must be members of Budget Fastbreak, the Company’s counter-bypass program, to be eligible. For every two qualifying rentals of two days or longer, Budget customers earn a $25 rental certificate.
