How does the Wizard System process travel source referred rentals for Budget licensees?

According to Budget's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the Wizard System automatically retrieves and processes travel source referred rentals for licensees who are on the Wizard system. If a travel source makes a direct reservation to a Budget location, the licensee should advise the travel source to redirect the rental through the centralized reservation system. This ensures the rental is properly recorded and the rates are charged accurately.

If redirection does not occur, the Budget licensee must report travel source reservations received directly through BCCS (Budget Centralized Commission Services Program). These direct reservations must be reported following the same procedures as those transmitted through the Reservation System.

Budget also provides the Budget Centralized Commission Services Program (BCCS) operated on behalf of Avis Budget Car Rental, LLC. This program is designed to pay travel sources worldwide commissions for both local and one-way car rentals via one central payment method. All reservations generated by travel sources must be reconciled through BCCS, whether made directly with the travel source or received from Budget's Worldwide Reservation Center. The reservations must be reported to BCCS in accordance with the Instruction Package provisions as commissionable or specific non-commissionable categories.
