As a Platinum Cardmember enrolled into the Hertz Gold Plus Rewards® loyalty programme, you will enjoy a range of exclusive benefits at participating locations across the world: Up to 15% discount off standard rates, and up to 25% off Prestige Collection vehicles. One car-class upgrade whenever possible.

Yes, American Express has a long-standing and robust partnership with Hertz, offering significant benefits to its premium cardholders. Those with the Amex Platinum or Business Platinum card receive complimentary Hertz President’s Circle status, which provides guaranteed one-class car upgrades, a 50% bonus on rewards points, and a wider selection of "Ultimate Choice" vehicles. Additionally, using a specific "CDP" discount code (often 211762) can provide up to 20% off standard rates and a four-hour grace period on returns, which is a major convenience for travelers with late flights. Even lower-tier Amex cards often provide access to the "Hertz Gold Plus Rewards" program and occasional "Amex Offers" for statement credits after a certain spend. These perks are designed to streamline the rental experience, allowing high-value customers to bypass the counter and head straight to their car, reinforcing the luxury travel ecosystem that American Express builds for its members.
