We wanted to provide advance notice that the Avis Budget Group & SPG partnership will be coming to an end on December 31, 2017 and we will be introducing a partnership with Hertz in early 2018.
Members don’t need to take any action; Starpoints earned to date with Avis Budget Group will not be affected. Reservations booked prior to 11:59pm December 31, 2017 with scheduled vehicle pickup dates through March 30, 2018 will earn Starpoints. New reservations booked after December 31, 2017 will not earn Starpoints.
Beginning in early 2018 all members can earn Starpoints on Hertz rentals. Additionally, SPG Platinum members will enjoy the below status:
· SPG Platinum members will be eligible for Hertz Gold Plus Rewards® Five Star ® status, which includes car upgrades and more.
· SPG Platinum members with ambassador service will be eligible to receive Hertz Gold Plus Rewards® President’s Circle® status and benefits.
More information to come after the New Year. As always, please let us know if we can help answer any questions.
