The experience will vary greatly depending on practice of the particular vendor.

The YouTrip card presents as a prepaid debit card. Some vendors will refuse to hold deposits on cards of this type as a matter of policy (Hertz comes to mind - see example in link below)

Its best to have a regular credit card on hand for this particular use case (Just for the the pending holds; you can settle with your YouTrip at the end)

I just came back from a trip in Spain and we rented a car from Sixt Car.

I paid using my Youtrip and the deposit was refunded to my card within 48 hours when i returned the car.

Hope this helps
