    Card Verification Value (also known as CVV2), is a number that is printed, not imprinted, on your Visa and MasterCard. This number is never transferred during card swipes and should only be known by the cardholder, the person holding the card in their hand. Visa, MasterCard and Discover card members can find their three digits CVV2 number in the signature area of your card, whereas American Express members can find the four digits CVV2 number just above the imprinted card number on the front side of the card. The CVV2 number is a way to protect your card against unauthorized use.

  19. I am interested in renting an audiobook and the title says it is in "2 parts" what does this mean?
    The majority of audiobooks on our site are unabridged. Occasionally a long audiobook on tape or cd will be divided into 2, 3 or more parts. When this happens we make an effort to ship the entire book at the same time. When this is not possible (i.e. you have a title already out on rent) we will hold the remaining parts until you are ready for them.


  20. When should I expect an email saying that a disc has been mailed to me?
    Whenever our system mails you a disc, it sends a notification email to your registered email address. You have an option to opt out for such email notifications by editing your preference in your account profile. It happens the same way when we receive a disc back from you.


  21. How long will it take to get my rentals?
    We always try to ship on the same day we receive titles back from you. If you live in California, Arizona, Nevada or Oregon, it will take approximately 1-3 days before your discs are in your mailbox. For all other areas throughout the U.S., you should expect to receive your discs within 2-5 days. Due to some postal delays, orders to the east coast and some rural areas can experience a delay of an additional 1-2 days. If your order appears to be delayed, simply notify us by email and we will be happy to investigate further. If your disc never gets to you, please let us know. After a few iterations you should be able to gauge how long it takes for a disc mailer to reach you.


  22. How can I find out what titles have been shipped to me?
    You can always be notified by email as to which titles have been mailed to you and you can also look at your current rentals to check the titles out.


  23. How should I return a disc?
    The mailer that we use has a returnable part, which you should use to return the disc back to us. The mailer has postage on it so all you have to is put the disc back in its sleeve and the protective cardboard cover, if it came that way, put back in the envelope/box, seal it and mail it. You can take it to the post office (fastest way back) or put it in your outgoing mail. Sending a disc back as soon as you have enjoyed it is the best way to have a circulation going so that you always have something to enjoy.



  24. Why I was not mailed my top choice from my rental list?
    Some titles, especially newly released titles are in heavy demand and there may be some wait till you get them as indicated by the "availability" flag, which can be none, "wait", "long wait", "very long wait" or "not released". We mail you the top available title from your rental list.

    We ask that all members keep at least 30 "released" titles on their list at all times so that we can send something to you starting from the top of your rental list to get you the most out of your membership.



  25. How do I handle the envelope?
    Once you receive and envelope, follow the instructions to open the removable flap, leave the rest of the envelope intact for the return mail. Make sure you do not damage the returning envelope. It might result in the discs getting damaged or lost. It can also cause delay in us getting it.


  26. I accidentally tore the return envelope. How should I send the disc back?
    ZDAG asks that all members to handle discs with care. If you have tore the provided return envelope, then you can choose one of the following options to mail the disc back. Properly fix the envelope with tape and then mail it back. You can also ask USPS to include your torn envelope into a plastic bag and then mail it. You can also send two discs back in one envelope. Alternatively, you can send the disc, properly inserted with the provided sleeve and the cardboard, in any other envelope of yours, putting the proper postage & correct mailing address on it.


  27. Why have no titles been mailed to me even when I have mailed all my titles back?
    There can be many reasons why we may have not mailed you any titles even though you have sent them to us.
    • We may not have received them yet.
    • Your rental list may be empty.
    • We may not be able to send you any title, as all titles in your rental list are in high demand with wait as indicated in your rental list or were not released on DVD or were unavailable.


  28. What If I can't find a title or the title I want is unavailable?
    If you want to watch a certain title and we do not have it, please let us know and we will try to acquire it, but we don't gurantee. We stock multiple quantities of the titles. Discs are shipped to members in order of priority. If a particular title on your list is currently out or unavailable, ZDAG ships the following disc on your rental list. We ask that all members keep at least 30 "released" titles on their list at all times. Some titles, especially newly released titles are in heavy demand and there may be some wait as indicated by the "availability" flag.


  29. What care should be taken for handing discs?
    ZDAG asks that all members to handle discs with care. Discs are very durable, however, we ask you to take some simple precautions and exercise basic care & handling to help us maintain the integrity of the discs. Please handle the disc by its outer edge to prevent fingerprints on the surface of the disc, since it can cause the disc to freeze or jump. If you notice any fingerprints on the surface take a soft cloth and wipe the surface gently. DO NOT use any type of solution on the disc. Never keep discs in direct sunlight or heat. Keep discs away from radiators, heaters, hot equipment surfaces, direct sunlight (near a window or in a car during hot weather), pets, small children, and other destructive forces. Always keep the discs in its protective rental sleeve when not in use. Don't bend the disc when taking it out of the case, and be careful not to scratch the disc when placing it in the case or in the player tray. Ensure your disc is returned in its protective rental sleeve before inserting it into the pre-paid return mailer. Members should report damaged discs to ZDAG immediately through the "Feedback" form provided on this website and the disc should be returned promptly.




Managing your Account:

  1. What is a rental list and how do I manage it?
    When you select a movie to watch, and click on the rent button, that title will be added to your Rental List.
    You can remove the titles from your rental list and also rearrange the priorities of the titles. We recommend you to add as many as 30 items to your rental list. If a title with a higher priority is not available, we will send you the next available title in your rental list. This way, you will always have something to watch and enjoy on a timely basis.


  2. What is the maximum number of titles I can add to my Rental List?
    You can add a maximum of 150 titles in your list.


  3. What do I do if my rental queue is full and I want to add another movie?
    The limit of this list is 150 titles, so if you want to add another one then you have to delete one to make room for the new one.

However, in case it still happens, please notify support@zdag.com by email. We will mail you another one or the next one in your rental list. Please send the wrong title back to us in the provided envelope.


  3. What if a title is lost in mail?
    According to the United States Postal Service, first class mail takes between 2 to 4 days to reach your home.

    After we have investigated the problem with the post office and if it is determined that the post office has misplaced the rental, we will mark that in your account as "lost in the mail" and remove it temporarily from your current rentals list and ship you the next available title in your Rental Queue. If the quantity of lost rentals in your account is determined to be excessive, we reserve the right to terminate your service.

    We suggest that you also contact your local post office. Let them know about the problem you are experiencing. You must notify them of problems with the mail loss. If possible, fax a complaint to your local post office.

    We too look into mail loss in a particular area so you should also send an email to us at support@zdag.com with the case number the post office has assigned to you. This will help us track issues easily when we discuss it with the United States Postal Service.

    The US Postal system does manage to lose about 0.08% (1:1250) of the mail sent to and from us.


  4. It's been over 7 days and the rentals has not gotten to its Destination, what do I do?
    Please contact our Customer Support at support@zdag.com with the details and we will take some action on it.


  5. The disc I got is not playing. What do I do?
    Some DVD players are not compatible with ALL REGION DVDs. Some DVDs on our website are ALL REGION - meaning that they play on DVD players around the world. The Hollywood DVDs that you rent at your local store are made to work only in DVD players in your region (North America is region 1). We have found Toshiba and Sony to be the worst for playing all region DVDs. If you own a Sony or Toshiba DVD player, we suggest investing a small amount into a relatively low cost DVD player from Wal-Mart for $39.99 to watch all region DVDs. If you strongly believe the problem is not your DVD player, we ask that you please give the DVD to a friend who has a less expensive player, and see if it works for them. We can almost guarantee it will. So we are asking you as our Customer to not just return the DVD without doing this little exercise, since we found that about 95% of the DVD that are returned to us play perfectly fine on our DVD players. So please, give the DVD to a friend and see how they fare. However, if the DVD is ACTUALLY defective and you cannot get the DVD to play on a different player, then perhaps you did get a lemon, and we will gladly issue you another DVD. Please send the unplayable disc back to us in the provided prepaid envelope.

    Please send and email to support@zdag.com and we will temporarily suspend your account and not empty your rental list. Once you are ready to resume send us an email again and your account will be activated again. However, your rental plan will restart from that day.
