1.  Who is DVDXpress?

DVDXpress is the longest running owner and operator of DVD rental kiosks in the United States.

2.  How do the DVD rental kiosks work?

It's as simple to use as an ATM:

-- To RENT a movie, simply select the movie of your choice from on-screen menu, select the RENT button, then swipe your credit/debit card - and in seconds your DVD is dispensed. 

-- To RETURN a movie, simply place your DVD into the DVD dispenser slot and await on-screen return confirmation.  See Usage Instructions for more details.

3.  Do I need to be a member?

No.  There's no membership card, membership fee, or sign-up required to rent a DVD from the kiosk.  Anyone over 18 with a valid credit (or debit) card can use our kiosks as often as they wish.

4.  How often do you update the kiosks with new movies?

New release DVDs are available beginning every Tuesday.

5.  Can I reserve movies online for pickup at the kiosk?

YES! DVDXpress is proud to introduce online reservations.  Select your closest kiosk, reserve your favorite titles and pick them up at the kiosk the same day!  There is no additional charge for this service.

6 What payment methods does DVDXpress accept?

DVDXpress currently accepts Visa, MasterCard, Discover, and American Express credit cards or Debit Cards containing the Visa or MasterCard logos.  Our kiosks do NOT accept cash.

7Is my payment information secure?

YES!  DVDXpress leverages Secure Sockets Layer technology to encrypt your personal and credit card information.  Your credit card number is not stored in the kiosk computer system and is encrypted in all transactions going to and from the bank. We also take great measures to prevent fraudulent use of your credit card.

8Can I get a receipt?

YES! DVDXpress operates a paperless system and delivers all receipts by e-mail.  On every transaction, our system will ask whether or not you would like to receive an e-mail receipt.  If you've entered your e-mail once you will not need to re-enter it for future transactions.  If you do not have an e-mail address your credit card statement should provide you the information you need.

DVDXpress also provides its Return Confirmation Receipts by e-mail.

9How do you use my e-mail address?

Entering your e-mail address is strictly for your benefit and convenience. We use your e-mail address to provide you with e-mail receipts of your transactions and return confirmation. Frequently we'll include Coupon Codes for FREE and discounted rentals.  Your e-mail address is never rented or sold to third parties.

10.  How can I receive Coupons for FREE rentals and other offers?

At DVDXpress there's always a promotion available for FREE and discounted rentals.  But, you'll need to receive e-mail receipts to get them.  Make sure you're getting an e-mail receipt for all your transactions in order to receive Coupon Codes!

11.  How do I use Coupon Codes at the DVDXpress kiosk?

Using a Coupon Code at the DVDXpress kiosk is as easy as 1,2,3:

1. Select movie, Choose “Rent”
2. Select “Use Coupon”
3. Swipe Credit/Debit Card

12.  How many DVDs can I rent/purchase at one time?

For your protection, the rental limits are different depending on if you are a first time customer, or if you have rented with us previously.

First time renters/purchasers: 2 DVDs
Repeat customers: 4 DVDs

13.  When are movies due back?

Movies are just $1 per night after the initial rental period.  You have 21 days before our system charges you the $25 purchase price of the DVD, at which point the movie is yours to keep.

14.  When are Extra Day Fees assessed?

Extra Day fees are assessed and charged at the time of your return. Extra day fees accrue for each additional period you keep the DVD beyond the due date, up to the Purchase Price of the DVD at the time of rental. An extra night is only $1.

Once you’ve been charged the purchase price, you have purchased the DVD and it is yours to keep.

15 What if a movie is never returned?

You will not be charged more than the price of the DVD ($25), no matter how long you rent it.  In fact, the movie is yours to keep at that point.   

16.  What if I lose the DVD or DVD case?

Please call Customer Service at 1-877-385-8500 for instructions to return DVD’s without a case or a damaged security tag. For lost DVD’s, your credit or debit card will automatically be charged $25
.

17.  What if the kiosk does not accept my return?

Please verify that your DVD is in the case and that the Security Tag is intact and secure.  If this is not the problem, please call Customer Service at 1-877-385-8500 for instructions.

18.  How does the kiosk know which DVD I returned?

Each DVD has an electronic security tag which tracks all pertinent information including when it was rented and returned.

19What if my disc does not play?

Check the playing surface of your DVDs for fingerprints should they ever skip or fail to play. More so than scratches, the dirt and oil from simple fingerprints can cause a disc to skip. To remove fingerprints and dirt, wipe the disc from the center outwards using a soft cloth (no papertowels). If problems persist please contact Customer Service at 1-877-385-8500 for further assistance.

20.  Where are the kiosks located?

Our kiosks are located in Supermarkets, Residential Buildings, and Office Buildings and College Campuses.  Click here to view some of our public locations or e-mail us if you have a suggestion for new location.

21.  Why are your prices so low?

DVDXpress can offer everyday value pricing on new release DVD rentals since it fully automates the traditional video store experience. We have lower overhead and so we pass these savings on to you.

22.  Who should I contact if I have a question, problem, comment, or suggestion?

You can email us at info@dvdxpress.net, use our online feedback form or give us a call toll-free at 1-877-385-8500.
