Mi intento es "The fee covers the entire day", pero no me suena del todo bien. Alguna sugerencia.

agree  neilmac: Per-day rental/hire
1 min
  -> thank you

agree  Robert Forstag: The original is ambiguous, as it could mean that return is required the same day, or 24 hours after the initial rental. The phrase also seems to mean that a full-day charge will always be applied (i.e., even if you use the scooter for one hour).

daily rate


Explanation:
Rental is at a daily rate /on a daily basis

You rent the vehicle on a daily rate specific to the size of the vehicle

A daily rate with unlimited mileage will probably work out cheaper...

Please note that rentals are billed at a daily rate.


Explanation:
Apologies for my previous misunderstanding of "renta" as used here.

I agree with Robert that the line is ambiguous, but I now think that it's more likely to be referring to cost and not returns. I agree with his last comment- that there are no hourly or partial-day rental fees. You pay for the day (meaning ambiguous) regardless of time used.

This is how I would express the idea and would expect to see it appear on a website.

Or, Please note that rentals are billed at the daily rate of $110.

Which makes clear that the figure below of $110 is not the grand total.
