Z Fuel Discounts for GO Rentals Customers
![Z Energy]()
All our customers are welcome to save 6 cents per litre on fuel at Z service stations across New Zealand when renting a car with us. We all know how quickly costs can add up when you’re on holiday, especially when there are so many awesome places to get to. This great promotion will help keep those costs down and maybe even give you the chance to add a few more destinations to your schedule.
Getting the Z fuel discount couldn’t be easier for GO Rentals customers. With every set of GO Rentals car keys coming with a Z petrol key tag, all you need to do is get the barcode on the back of the tag scanned when you fill up at one of Z’s 200+ service stations and the discount will be applied.

I am so glad we tried GO Rentals and would never go back to the old company!! The app is so easy to use, the shuttle was fast to arrive, and the driver was friendly.
