Car Rental Credit Card Hold

[sorcerormickey]

Just a quick question!

We are renting a car for 1 day on our next trip to WDW at the Swan. The price from National is approx $38 including taxes/fees. I know they put a 'hold' on your credit card for that much plus some when you pick up the car. How much is that 'plus some' usually? Is it a certain percentage? I have a credit card that only has a $200 limit (used for emergencies only) and that is what I plan to rent the car with, then actually pay with my debit card upon return. Will this card suffice?

TIA!!

National only puts the amount of the rental on hold. No more, no less.
