Can I take the credit card of my father to Portugal?

Accepted answer

The rental desk often wishes to see that the credit card is issued in exactly the same name as the driving licence. If you and your father share a name or a first initial it would probably be acceptable, but it seems to me a bit risky.

A better solution is to ask your father to take out a second card on the same account, but in your name. This is called a "supplementary card". He will be liable for any spending that you do, but the card will be in your name.

Actually, yes you can!

The only way is if you and your dad share the same name. I have used my Dad's credit card multiple times while using my own ID/DL. There is no way for the rental car company to know the exact details of the bank account. I know from experience, and have done it more than once.
