Car Hire With A Debit Card In Switzerland

Hiring a car with a debit card can prove extremely tricky, credit cards are the common type of payment that is accepted all over the world when it comes to car rental, especially in Switzerland. This often impacted on people’s holidays and can seriously affect their overall holiday experience, we hated the thought of this so naturally decided to do something about it. We contacted all the major suppliers in Switzerland and came up with a few leads to find a solution and we can happily announce that at selected locations we can offer debit card car hire given that the card meets the various restrictions.

Come straight to Indigo car hire and we can arrange your car hire completely hassle free, make it easy on yourself and book with us. We organise everything to do with the rental from the start to the finish you don’t have to bother with all the exchanging of emails, phone calls and various other things included in renting a car all you have to do is call us give us the details of the rental and well sort the rest out for you.

What Are The Restrictions?

The restrictions are down to the suppliers consent as they need to be able to qualify your card before you pick up your hired vehicle. In order to hire with a debit card, you must pass the restrictions.

An example of one of the restrictions is that the card must be in the name of the main driver of the vehicle. Not all of the restrictions are the same, they can change depending on the location and the supplier. Therefore, we recommend that you contact our reservations team before you book, that way we can advise you of the best solution.

“Quick and Helpful on Live Chat”

I used this company to book a car without a credit card. They were quick and responsive on live chat and gave concise information. The car was a good price and the price was explained well.

I'd recommend this company to a friend and will be using them again when I need to rent a car.

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.
