Can a magnetic stripe credit card be used when renting a car ?
8 Answers

Sure. But it is often restricted in other occasions in daily use.
All my cards are magnetic stripe cards. I just rented a car 19 days ago and everything was fine, but when it came to paying parking fees and so on, the magnetic stripe cards didn't work.
Generally not possible, they are not used to or do not understand how to swipe a magnetic card
Generally speaking, yes. But magnetic stripe cards are considered unsafe in Europe, so they are not accepted in many places. It's best to bring a chip card.
In general, car parking is allowed, but some small restaurants are not.

There are many hotels that don't work.
