Do you charge a deposit for renting a car, and do you charge a service fee for using a credit card ?

Swiping the card is just to avoid getting a ticket for the car, and there is no handling fee.
No service charge. The deposit will not be deducted, it is just frozen, and will only be deducted if there is any issue later.
I rented a car in both the South Island and the North Island without a deposit. However, when I changed the car model in the South Island, it was originally 120 dollars, but I actually paid 122, and the extra two dollars was the card processing fee.
