Car hire in Iceland which allows someone other than the driver to pay?

My wife and I went to Iceland in June 2015, and though I don’t drive a car she does, and we booked a rental with Reykjavik Rent A Car. I went back and dug out the receipt, hoping that I’d made the booking, which would be ideal.

Sadly, my wife made the booking. But they were brilliant in all regards – they actually persuaded us to accept a refund of our pre-paid theft insurance because they felt it was a waste of our money (“Nobody steals cars here. We are an island. Where would you go?”), there was no hint of a practice that is (apparently) common in the UK, of charging us for every tiny scratch ever made in the history of the vehicle – so I wanted to see if I could recommend them here.

I just rang them and they have no problem at all with the renter not being one of the drivers, as long as the card holder is on the trip (which you say you will be).
