Sixt Rent a Car<\/a> launched a new loyalty program for U.S.-based residents, known as Sixt One. The updated program has switched to a spending-based model, which now features a new points-earning structure, updated elite status tiers and the ability to redeem your points for car rentals<\/a>.<\/p>\n

With over 2,200 locations (80 in the U.S.) in more than 105 countries, members can enjoy some valuable (and even time-saving) perks just by signing up. Here’s what to know about the new program and how you can get rewarded on your next rental car.<\/p>\n

How to earn and redeem Sixt One points<\/h2>\n

With the new Sixt One program, members will earn rental points and<\/em> status points on the base rate, mileage and protection charges. Since Sixt is a European-based company, points will be calculated based on euros and credited to your account within a few business days.<\/p>\n

Members will earn 1 point for every 1 euro (about $1.15) spent on qualifying rentals (excluding taxes and fees). By accruing rental points, members will be able to redeem rewards to save on bookings. A spokesperson for Sixt confirmed to TPG that members will be able to cover up to a seven-day car rental using points.<\/p>\n

To redeem your Sixt points, log in to your account; after selecting your vehicle, there will be a points payment option on the “Review your booking” page. Luckily, you can allocate the number of points you want to redeem, which is great if you don’t have enough points to cover a full car rental.<\/p>\n

While you can use points to cover your booking, you still have to pay applicable taxes, fees, surcharges and additional product protections or add-ons.<\/p>\n

Note that rental points expire after 24 months.<\/p>\n

Earn points with partner programs<\/h3>\n

If earning Sixt One rental points does not interest you, the program also partners with numerous airline and hotel brands. You can opt to earn points or miles with your preferred loyalty program.<\/p>\n

For example, Delta SkyMiles is a partner program. According to Sixt One’s partner page<\/a>, you can earn 2 miles per dollar spent on every rental. So, if you value earning SkyMiles more, you could earn miles to help you book your next flight.<\/p>\n

To swap your earning preference, log in to your account and click “Sixt One” in the upper left-hand corner. Then, scroll down to the bottom and click “Change rewards program.”<\/p>\n

You will then click on “Partner rewards program” as your earning option. When you are booking a car rental through Sixt, you will be able to select the program with which you’d like to earn points or miles when you complete your booking.<\/p>\n

Sixt One elite status tiers<\/h2>\n

Prior to the loyalty program overhaul, Sixt One only had three tiers; the highest elite status tier, Diamond, was invitation-only. The program now has four tiers, introducing Silver as an entry-level tier, which comes with notable perks.<\/p>\n

Here’s a breakdown of each status tier and the benefits you’ll receive.<\/p>\n
