If you've got Platinum Elite status (or higher) with Marriott Rewards, you're eligible for elite status with Hertz.
How The Status Match Works
Your particular level of elite status will determine if you'll receive Hertz Gold Plus Rewards’ President’s Circle® or Five Star® status. Here's what you'll get:
- Marriott Platinum Premier Elite will match to Hertz President’s Circle®
- Marriott Platinum Elite will match to Hertz Five Star® status
The process of receiving your status is simple. Head over to the Marriott Rewards/Hertz status page, enter your membership number, and your Hertz Gold Plus Rewards number. After that, enter your name, click the captcha, and you are done. Elite status will take up to 48 hours to update.
Other Options For Status Matching
This is not the only option for leveraging your elite status to obtain status with Hertz. Delta Platinum and Diamond members can leverage their status for President’s Circle® membership, while Delta Gold members can receive Five Star® status with Hertz.
There are also options for leveraging your United status with Hertz. Premier Silver and Premier Gold members will receive Hertz Five Star® status, while Premier Platinum members and higher are entitled to match Hertz President's Circle®. Moreover, regardless of your United status, if you hold United℠ Presidential Plus℠ Card or the United Club℠ Infinite Card you will also receive Hertz President's Circle® status.
This is by no means the end of status matching for Elite car rental status. World Elite Mastercard members, who hold cards like the Citi ThankYou® Preferred Card or the Citi Premier® Card can also receive various perks with companies like Alamo, Budget, Enterprise, National, and SIXT.
Our Take
Any move that offers more options to leverage your status with different programs is good news. Don’t forget it is not just airlines and hotels statuses that can be used to leverage car rental status. Some credit cards also offer elite status with car rental companies, check out our guide for the full story on how to obtain rental car elite status for free.

The link for the Marriott Bonvoy/ Hertz does not seem to work. Is it possible that it’s a mistake? https://mrhertzstatus.com/MemberStat
That page used to be where you’d go to link your accounts. Unfortunately it looks like that website has been shut down. I searched for a while but I can’t find the new link. Let me know if you end up finding it!
I have searched too and cannot find this. Good luck contacting Hertz too, I couldn’t even find a phone number that worked.
Does status automatically update to the highest status regardless of loyalty program? I signed up with SPG when I had Platinum so I got 5-star on Hertz. I have Platinum on Delta for about 3 months now, and my Hertz still shows 5-star instead of President Circle.
Called Hertz, they told me to call Delta. Called Delta and I’m pretty sure the woman doesn’t understand what I’m talking about. She just kept saying I get miles through Lyft and that I can only get miles if I book Hertz through Delta. Not what I’m talking about. I had to refer her to the Delta webpage that says Platinum members get Hertz President’s circle when they sign up through a link.
You need to request the status: Check out all the details on this page: http://www.delta.com/content/www/en_US/skymiles/earn-miles/earn-miles-with-partners/car-rental-limo-and-shuttle/hertz-elite-status-benefit.html
This is a great bonus for elite travelers.
Looks like I got 5 Star again now – though in the past I’d never actually see the bonus points. Thanks
I love how you can have an elite status with United if you are elite with Marriott and now this lovely perk! Great program overall in my opinion.
Works the other way too! SPG Platinum > Marriott Platinum > United Silver. That is how I got it! 🙂
It definitely makes United elite status worth aiming for.
Good perk to have once you get status.
I’ve just destroyed and changed the data of all my rent a car card.
Too invasive, even when I book outside my profile they match the data and give me the rent according my profile (insurance, etc.).
I simply don’t want to check my profile every time.
And not a big value for me (I rent not a lot of time per year).
Thanks for the heads up. I never thought about this.
Super perk
Thanks!
The Centurion card gives platinum with Hertz
LOL Centurion gives Platinum with Delta, which gives President’s Circle with Hertz — but honestly, so few people have that card that we don’t cover it / associated benefits.
Platinum with Hertz is actually higher than Presidents Circle. It has some very nice benefits including pick up and drop off at the terminal, along with upgrade to the highest level car if a mid size is reserved.
I’m sorry, yes, I totally forgot about that.
I didn’t know Hertz had that level.
Thanks for the heads up. Great perk.
My Delta Platinum gives me President’s Circle with Hertz but for some reason that hasn’t been updated! 🙁
It took me a few weeks for mine to update when I initially did this.
Thanks!
Super easy, got a pending message. Will leave notes as to how long the match takes.
good perk to keep in mind when reaching Platinum status for SPG/Marriott!
