"Dad did you really book the car with just one dollar" My daughter asked me this in the living room while she hugged her toy. That night we were planning our family trip to Paris and the booking page from QEEQ was still open on the laptop. I told her that I only paid one dollar now and that they would take the rest from my card a bit before we pick up the car. She looked so shocked that I started to laugh. Then the time jumps to the middle of July. The evening air in Paris felt a bit warm and heavy. We left the hotel with the kids on July 11 and walked to pick up the car. The street lights were turning on one by one. The kids were tired but also excited. On the way I checked my phone and looked at my card statement. The one dollar booking fee was already paid before and the rest of the money was charged a few days before the pickup. There was no extra fee and no interest. My credit card bill looked light. There was no sudden big payment. That made me feel very calm. When we reached the rental counter I only had to show my documents to the staff and sign the usual papers. My child whispered to me and asked if everything was really paid already. I nodded and said that they had already taken care of the payment from the card and that today we just needed to drive the car away. For a parent who travels with kids this was very relaxing. When I made the booking I only had to pay that one dollar. I did not need to put all the money down at once. It was easier to plan our budget for flights hotels and other things. I remember when I first saw the name One-Dollar Freeze on the page. I read it again and again because I was afraid there might be some catch in small letters. After I used it I found out that it was very simple. First I pay 1 dollar and the car is reserved. Then before the start of the booking they charge the rest from my card. I do not need to remember dates or watch for emails. When I finally stood on a Paris street pushing our luggage and holding my kids hands as we walked into the rental office I felt very glad that I picked this payment plan. If I had to pay the full amount at the start it would put more pressure on my credit card and I would worry about my limit. Later my kid told her mom that dad locked a car with one dollar. This sounds a bit funny but for a family like us that needs to count every part of the travel cost this way of booking with just 1 dollar at first really took a lot of pressure away.
