At a Glance

Hertz Gold Plus Rewards is the free loyalty program from Hertz, one of the world's largest car rental companies. The program offers three membership tiers: Gold (base), Five Star, and President's Circle, each providing escalating benefits including bonus points, vehicle upgrades, and enhanced service. Members earn 1 point per dollar spent on base rental rates, with elite members earning 25-50% bonus points. Points can be redeemed for free rental days starting at just 950 points for a one-day U.S. compact to premium rental. The program's signature benefit is the ability to skip the counter and choose your own car from the Ultimate Choice lot at participating airports. Status can be earned through rental activity (10 or 15 rentals) or spend ($2,000 or $3,000 annually), or obtained instantly through credit card partnerships with Capital One. Delta SkyMiles members can also match their elite status to Hertz.
