A レンタル 車 保証金 is the amount the 会社 holds as security while the 車両 is in your hands. It is not an extra 料金 and it is not part of the レンタル 料金. If you 返却 the 車 as you received it, the 保証金 comes 戻る in full. Below you will see what its amount depends オン, how it is held, when it is returned and how you can avoid it altogether.
What the 保証金 covers
The 保証金 covers the 会社 for anything that may happen until the 復帰: damage not covered by 保険, the excess in case of an accident, missing 燃料, traffic fines or a 遅延 返却.
It does not mean you will be charged for any of these. It is simply the amount 利用可能 if needed. In most レンタル the 車 is returned normally and the 保証金 is released without any deduction.
What the amount depends オン
Each 会社 sets the amount of the 保証金, and it usually relates ～ the 金額 and カテゴリー of the 車両. A 小さな city 車 usually has a lower 保証金 than a larger or もっと見る expensive モデル, and motorcycles have their own terms.

Hold or 料金: the difference for your カード

With a debit カード or 現金 the お金 really leaves あなたの口座 and is returned later. That is not a problem, as long as you include it in your budget so you are not left with 減らす お金 than you need オン the trip.
When the 保証金 is returned

A hold オン a credit カード is usually キャンセル済み within a few 日間, while a 返金 ～ a debit カード can take longer. If two weeks pass without seeing the お金, 連絡先 the 会社 first and then your bank.
When part of the 保証金 may be kept
Part of the 保証金 is kept only for a specific 理由 set out in the terms: 新着 damage, 減らす 燃料 than agreed, a lost key or documents, or a fine relating ～ the レンタル 期間. Always ask for a detailed explanation and evidence.
The best protection is photos. Photograph the 車両 から every side at 受取 and again 返却時, together with the ダッシュボード showing 燃料 and mileage. That way any disagreement is 支払い済み quickly.
