It allows members of the Avis Preferred loyalty program worldwide and members of Hotels.com Rewards loyalty program get upgraded loyalty status.
Members of Avis Preferred Plus can apply for complimentary Hotels.com Rewards Silver membership while Avis President’s Club members may apply for complimentary Hotels.com Rewards Gold membership.
Hotels.com Rewards Gold members, those who book and stay more than 30 nights in their membership year, may apply for complimentary Avis Preferred Plus membership.
Hotels.com Rewards members collect one stamp for every night stayed, and get one reward per 10 stamps.
This can be redeemed at any eligible hotel around the world numbering more than a 500,000 with no blackout dates.
