Umm... About all of them?

Seriously, pretty much every one Gold or Platinum credit card (VISA, MC, etc.) issued in the US provides for the secondary rental car insurance, which covers the deductible on your primary insurance (if you have one, otherwise, it covers everything).

A lot of MC/Visa offer PRIMARY insurance... leaving your own car insurance alone. That is cool.

Would you please tell me the Visa/mastercards that offer primary insurance? I was under the impression that the only card that offered primary coverage was Diner's Club. I recently cancelled my Diner's Club and would like to get a card that had primary insurance coverage.

Thanks

I know some of the Visa business cards offer primary insurance. See, e.g.:

I'm afraid it's a huge overstatement. At least in the US, almost all MC/VISA cards offer secondary insurance.

Good example, but keep in mind that if your rental is for personal reasons, the coverage becomes secondary instead of primary.

I too have been searching for some time for a VI/MC that offers primary coverage. I have yet to find one, and would love to hear if someone has.
