I'm searching top see if this is true, but it appears that you need to pay for at least one day if you are going to use points.

I have 8000+ points, and am looking to rent a car for 3 days - it gives me the option to rent for 2 days for 1400 points (or 2800 for a Full size) but still 1 day rate plus all fees/taxes on the full cash rate.

I tried a <24 hour rental and I couldn't apply any points.

So here, you're not given 15 hours free, you can use points for the 3 days and then pay for 1 day.

Is this a feature of the program - 1 minimum paid day to use points?
