QEEQ Car Rental Wins Three World Business Outlook Awards for 2026

Sep 23, 2026

Recognition highlights the company’s global booking platform, localized customer experience and Price Drop Protector technology.

United States, September 23, 2026 -- QEEQ Car Rental (“QEEQ”) has received three honors in the World Business Outlook Awards 2026 recognizing its global booking platform, customer experience and Price Drop Protector pricing technology.

QEEQ was named:

  • Best Global Car Rental Booking Platform 2026
  • Best Customer Experience in Car Rental Services Global 2026
  • Most Innovative Travel Pricing Solution Global 2026 (Price Drop Protector)

The full 2026 winner list is available on the World Business Outlook Awards website at https://worldbusinessoutlook.com/award-winners-2026/.

The recognition comes as international travelers continue to navigate a car rental process that can differ considerably from one country to another. Vehicle categories, payment requirements, deposits, insurance options, cancellation policies and pickup procedures are not always presented in familiar terms. Language differences can add another layer of difficulty, particularly when a booking changes or an issue arises at the rental counter.

Founded in 2017, QEEQ provides a single platform through which travelers can search, compare, book and manage rental cars from international brands and regional suppliers. The company currently reports more than 17 million users, coverage in more than 200 countries and relationships with over 1,000 partners.

Its international reach is supported by localized websites serving English, Japanese, Korean, Italian, Spanish, French, German, Portuguese, Polish, Arabic, Traditional Chinese and Thai-speaking markets. QEEQ also provides round-the-clock multilingual customer support, helping travelers obtain information before, during and after a rental. This assistance is especially valuable when customers need to understand deposits, payment requirements or booking changes in an overseas market.

“Receiving three World Business Outlook Awards is meaningful to QEEQ because the recognition covers the full customer proposition we are building: global booking access, localized customer service and technology-led pricing solutions,” says Ben Lee, CEO of QEEQ Car Rental. “International travelers need more than a competitive headline price. They also need clear booking information, a localized experience and access to 24/7 support in a language they understand, especially when renting a car overseas. We will continue developing QEEQ as the car rental expert international travelers can trust.”

The award for Best Global Car Rental Booking Platform reflects more than the geographic size of QEEQ’s network. For a traveler preparing to collect a vehicle in another country, the practical value of a global platform depends on whether rental information can be understood, compared and managed with reasonable clarity. QEEQ brings together offers from major providers, including Avis, Hertz, Sixt, Enterprise and Europcar, as well as local rental companies operating in individual destinations.

The customer experience award also recognizes QEEQ’s efforts across multiple stages of a rental. In addition to localized booking and customer-support services, the platform offers tools for comparing relevant conditions, identifying eligible debit-card-friendly rentals and planning self-drive trips. Its free Road Trip Planner creates customized itineraries, while selected service options provide additional assistance when qualifying pickup or supplier-related problems occur.

Customer feedback also provides a broader view of how the platform is used in practice. As of September 2026, QEEQ’s Trustpilot profile carries a TrustScore of 4.5 out of 5 based on more than 21,000 reviews. Customers have commented on the booking process, pricing, repeat use and access to assistance when rental issues arise. These reviews reflect individual experiences and do not guarantee that every customer will receive the same outcome.

Price Drop Protector, the subject of the third award, addresses a different concern. Car rental prices can change between the day a reservation is made and the scheduled pickup date. Some travelers may prefer to reserve early to secure availability but remain concerned that a more favorable rate could appear later.

For eligible reservations, Price Drop Protector monitors relevant price movements after a booking has been confirmed. Customers may select an email alert or an automatic rebooking option if a qualifying lower price becomes available. Rebooking and any resulting savings or refunds remain subject to eligibility, comparable rental conditions, availability and the published terms. The service is therefore intended to reduce post-booking price uncertainty rather than operate as an unconditional lowest-price guarantee.

Taken together, the three awards reflect QEEQ’s approach to international car rental as an ongoing service rather than a single booking transaction. The platform combines supplier access, market-specific booking experiences, customer assistance and post-booking price monitoring within the same travel process.
