Hertz
The world’s largest car rental brand operates hundreds of ExpressRentTM kiosks powered by Live Expert. Using Live Expert, customers can instantly video chat with an agent for live, face-to-face services at airport and off-airport locations.
Live Expert interfaces with kiosk devices for driver’s license verification, payment, and rental agreements. Live Expert displays on-screen instructions for customers, handles exceptions, and seamlessly uploads data to Hertz’s reservation system.

Using Live Expert, Hertz gains a rare combination of benefits – lower operating cost, higher service level, greater revenue per customer, and greater market share.
