It depends on the company and the individual branch. I know that the rental branch where I work does not accept debit cards as payment security (a credit card is taken at the time of rental and a deposit is secured on it). The reason for this is simply that debit cards and credit cards work very differently from the bank's end. Debit is taken from your account immediately -- a merchant can't put a "hold" on a certain amount of money. This hold is how deposits are typically made at the time you rent the car (basically, the given amount is deducted from your available line of credit but not actually charged to your account).

In other words, a credit card is a more secure guarantee that the merchant will get paid if the renter is dishonest or does not have enough money to pay for the rental. A debit card is much less reliable from the merchant's perspective.
