                Car Hire With A Debit Card In South Africa

                Hiring a car with a debit card is no easy task, majority of all car hire companies on a worldwide scale only allow the use of a credit card, which can be inconvenient for many. We realised that this was affecting many people’s holiday plans which we hated, that in mind we decided to do something about it and contacted all the main suppliers in South Africa to see if we could arrange some form of solution. Eventually we managed to find a supplier that for our customers would accept debit cards as long as they meet certain restrictions.

                Book with Indigo today and get a completely hassle free car hire, we organise everything for you from the start of the rental to the finish. Don’t bother worrying about hiring a car and all the forms and email exchanging that you need to do, we will do all that for you. Also with our knowledge, experience and authority we can often get you a much better deal in regards to decreasing the price of the rental.

                So What Are The Restrictions?

                When we contacted and organised this deal they accepted it as long as we met a few restrictions into which cards are accepted and which aren’t. We tried to keep these restrictions to a minimum but ultimately it was up to the suppliers.

                An example of one of the restrictions is that the name on the card must match the name on the licence of the main driver. However, the other restrictions can change depending on the location and the supplier. For this reason, it is always better to contact our reservations team prior to making a booking, that way we can advise you of the best solution.

                Very Pleased Customer

                Used indigo in October last year they were so brilliant that I remembered the service I received & wanted to use them again.

                So I went into my emails & found them I’ll be using them again this time around to book a car for when I’m in South Africa.

                Great customer experience second to none. Well done!!!

                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.
