How do I earn rental credits?
When you become a National Emerald Club Member, you can immediately start earning credits towards free rental days on qualifying rentals!
What is a Qualifying Rental?
- A qualifying rental is defined as the number of vehicle rentals or the number of paid rental days that occured at a participating National Car Rental or Enterprise Rent-A-Car brand locations within each calendar year.
- A qualifying rental does not include (and credits will not be issued) on the following type of rentals:
- Rentals on rate plans for accounts that do not allow employees to participate in award programs;
- Rentals when a member chooses to receive mileage, credits or points for a frequent traveler program (such as, but not limited to, an airline frequent flyer or hotel points program);
- Rentals used as an insurance, dealer, body shop, or fleet replacement; or
- Rentals by employees of Enterprise Holdings, Inc. or its affiliates or subsidiaries, licensee and licensee employees booked under an employee discount rate;
How do I earn credits?
- If your rental is 1 - 7 calendar days, you will be rewarded 1 credit
- If your rental is 8 or more days, National rewards you even further by dividing your total rental days by 4. This means:
- At 8 rental days you earn 2 credits
- At 12 rental days you earn 3 credits.
How long are points/rental credits valid?
Rental credits do not expire. Once you earn enough credits for a free day, the free day is valid through December 31st of the following year.
Can I earn Emerald Club rental and free day credits when renting at Enterprise?
