                Car Hire Algarve

                The Algarve is the number one holiday destination in Portugal. There are pretty beaches, brash resorts and picturesque towns that flood with visitors when summer arrives. While the party atmosphere isn’t for everyone, the setting is undeniably beautiful.

                Outside the touristy areas, there are quiet castle towns, flower covered hillsides and enchanting stretches of shoreline still unspoiled by developers.

                The towns themselves aren’t as varied as the coastal areas, but offer a wide range of personalities. Lagos, with its cobbled streets, young crowd and abundant nightlife, is the carnival queen of the Algarve. Monchique is a quaint town with fine views over the steep wooded countryside. Tavira, set along a peaceful river, remains elegant and laid-back, with a history dating back to the Romans.

                The capital of the region, Faro, has a more Portuguese feel than some, and a fascinating medieval quarter. Out on the rugged west coast, small, charming towns like Sagres and Carrapateira attract a surf-loving crowd, while cliffside Albufeira sees a wider mix of travellers.

                If you’re not keen on crowds and high season prices, avoid coming from July to mid September. This is when most Portuguese and other Europeans take their holidays. Spring and autumn are lovely alternatives although the water will be a bit chilly. Check out our guide on things to do in the Algarve for more info.

                Debit Card Car Hire Algarve

                We offer debit card car hire in Algarve given that your card meets the three main restrictions that we have. As an example one of the restrictions is that the name on front of the debit card must match the name on the front of the main drivers licence. As well as this, not every type of debit card is accepted, to check if your card will be accepted, please contact us via call, email or by using the live chat function.

                No Deposit Car Hire Algarve

                Struggling to get the funds together for the holiday, the car hire and wait the deposit that comes with that too? We have found a solution for you, we can hire our cars out without a deposit. Sometimes however car rental with no deposit is unavailable due to low availability during peak season therefore we also arranged a backup offer of low deposit car hire which is just the deposit on the full tank of fuel.

                Reliable service

                Having used Indigo before, I had no hesitation in trusting them again to arrange car hire for me in Portugal. Joshua was very helpful and I would recommend Indigo to anyone wishing to hire a car with only a debit card.

                Do I need to pass a credit check if using my debit card to hire?

                If renting a car in the UK and you are a UK resident most of the large multinational suppliers will carry out an electronic address check to ensure you have strong enough links to the address provided. However most of the suppliers with the exception of 1 or 2, still carry out the same checks so not unique to when you need to hire via a debit card. Key indicator are if you are named on the Electoral Register and named on the council tax bill.

                When renting a car overseas as an inbound client our suppliers do not carry out any checks.

                Do I need to leave a deposit if hiring with a debit card?

                Most suppliers do require a security deposit when renting a car, in the UK we have a range of options. The best value suppliers would request a £200.00 – £300.00 deposit. However we do have selected locations where our supplier does not require any deposit, so a full zero deposit.

                In Europe we have options where you can just leave a fuel deposit of 110 EUR, and there is no mandatory requirement to take the Super Cover as this can be the case with some of the smaller budget suppliers.
