Who

ACRISS, an Association established more than 30 years ago by leading global car rental and travel technology companies to develop, implement and maintain industry standards for use in all distribution systems including car rental and online booking systems enabling customers to book with confidence.

What

ACRISS develops industry standards that promote transparency and enable fair, accurate comparison when booking car rental and other mobility services. The association works closely with the industry to encourage adoption of ACRISS standards and support compliance with the ACRISS Code of Conduct.

How

ACRISS develops and maintains standards designed to prevent misleading information and promote accuracy across the car rental and mobility industry.  ACRISS mission is to educate and communicate the value of these standards, helping customers book with confidence. All ACRISS members adhere to the ACRISS Code of Conduct and comply with the standards established and agreed by the association.

ACRISS is collaborating with Tripiamo to strengthen its mission to improve clarity, consistency, and traveller Tripiamo - Driving Abroad Made Easyreadiness across the global car rental industry. While ACRISS provides trusted standards, vehicle coding, and authoritative rental information for the travel sector, Tripiamo complements this by equipping renters with practical, country‑specific driving preparation guides.

Goals and Objectives

ACRISS delivers on its goals through:

  • Code of Conduct – Promoting and supporting adherence to the ACRISS Code of Conduct for our members, ensuring high-quality, consistent information across electronic distribution systems.
  • Vehicle Classification – Developing and maintaining the ACRISS Vehicle Classification System and car codes to enable accurate, like-for-like vehicle comparisons and respond to evolving industry needs.
  • Industry Standards – Developing and implementing standards across the car rental  booking process, including location content, policies, optional extras and emerging digital requirements.
  • Guidelines and Best Practices – Developing and maintaining standards and guidelines to support enhancements, new functionality and product developments.
  • Booking Confidence – Supporting greater confidence in electronic distribution and online travel platforms for global car rental bookings.
  • ACRISS Cloud Services – Maintaining and expanding ACRISS Cloud services for members and non-members.

The ACRISS Cloud was devised as an easy to implement solution to resolve the issue of outdated vehicle images and specifications. The system enables all the car rental companies to ‘push’ their vehicle image and fleet data to their preferred partners, rather than the partner having to come to the individual car rental companies.
