It is possible to hire a car at Alicante airport with a debit card as long as you are able to present a Visa debit card which has raised numbers on the card and is in the name of the driver.
Many suppliers at Alicante airport will require you to take out additional excess cover and may require a deposit.
At Alicante Airport we work with a large number of suppliers, the large majority of which only accept credit cards for car hire Alicante Airport.
This can often be very frustrating and can end you feeling like there are no options available to you if you are looking to get a rental vehicle in Spain. Well there is no need to panic and you can certainly now rest assured as Indigo Car Hire is here to save the day.
We have negotiated a deal with one of our suppliers that provide car hire Alicante Airport without a credit card. However, there are 3 generic restrictions.
Typical restrictions are:
The most widely accepted cards with our suppliers are Visa debit card and Mastercard debit card. However, if you don’t have either of those cards like Maestro, Visa Electron, Lazer and Switch are still accepted sometimes, although this is less common.
The name on the card used to pay must match the name of the driver of the vehicle, we can’t accept payment from anyone apart from the main driver of the vehicle. If you want to use someone else’s card to pay you, they must be the main driver and add anyone else as additional drivers.
In most cases suppliers will only accept cards with embossed numbers and letters, however in some cases printed cards are still accepted.

With these suppliers you may need to take out an additional insurance excess relax cover which is charged at a daily amount. This basically reduces your excess to zero, so in the event of the vehicle being damaged you would not have anything further to pay, however this insurance also allows the use of a Visa debit card.
