What is Blockbuster Express?
Blockbuster Express is a kiosk based rental service started by NCR and branded under Blockbuster, in the late December 2009 to compete against Redbox which offers a similar service.
[top]
What is a rental kiosk?
A rental kiosk is similar to a vending machine and allows you to rent movies and games with the use of a debit/credit card. The DVD's can usually be rented for as low as $1 for a day with charges for additional days. These kiosks are becoming very popular and can be found in various stores and supermarkets. Major stores include Walmart, Walgreens, Publix and Kroger. [top]
Does Blockbuster Express have competitors?
Yes, Redbox was the first and still is a major competition to Blockbuster Express. Other private companies are pouring into the market after noticing the demand. DVD Play is one of them and is slowly gaining market. [top]
What are promotion codes?
The concept of rental kiosks are still new and promotional codes are offen issued to attract customers. A promotional code entitles you to one night free movie or game rental. A subsequent $1 would be charged for any additonal nights. [top]
Are the promotion codes unique and per household?
Most are but some can be re-used till their expiration. The codes listed on our page will have additional details to better your judgement. Non reusable codes are validated per credit/debit card, which means if you have two different cards then both can be used for them. Please check the terms and conditions before you proceed.

I rented a dvd and it is unplayable. What should I do?
A disc is usually unplayable if it get scratched and is mostly a result of mishandling. In your case, it could have been caused by the previous renter. I suggest you to contact the customer service at this number:
