Can the supplier pre-authorize multiple cards?

A majority of car rental suppliers do not pre-authorize multiple cards unless the situation demands it. Only in cases of larger or expensive vehicles, the companies may require two physical credit cards in the main driver’s name to collect the rental amount and deposit from each card separately or to hold a higher deposit amount.

These requirements can vary based on the supplier, location and car category. Therefore, always cross-verify the information by carefully reading the supplier’s Rental Terms or directly checking with the company only.
