Turo now sits alongside other car rental partners like Hertz and Sixt, giving\u00a0Qatar Privilege Club members even more ways to earn Avios.<\/p>\n<p>Unlike the traditional car rental model, Turo is a car-sharing marketplace where members of the public can list their cars for rent through an app. It first launched in 2010 in Boston and San Francisco, and it feels very Airbnb-esque.<\/p>\n<p>Currently, you can book Turo rentals in the U.S., Australia, Canada, France, and the United Kingdom. Although each host is different, many offer deliveries to airports and other travel hubs, making it a convenient alternative to traditional car rental companies. Here's everything to know about earning Avios on Turo rentals.<\/p>\n<h2><span id=\"How_To_Earn_Avios_on_Turo\">How To Earn Avios on Turo<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you need to rent a car and are looking to earn Avios, <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/turo.com\/gb\/en\/qatar\" rel=\"noopener\">head to this page<\/a>, and you\u2019ll be prompted to link your Privilege Club account to your Turo account. Keep in mind that this offer is only available through Qatar Airways \u2014 at least for now. However, you can <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/awardwallet.com\/airlines\/how-to-transfer-avios-between-accounts\/\" rel=\"noopener\">freely move your Qatar Avios to other Avios-earning programs<\/a> like British Airways and Iberia.<\/p>\n<p>Once you\u2019ve linked your Privilege Club and Turo accounts, you're ready to rent. The earning rates depend on your Privilege Club elite status tier.<\/p>\n<p>You'll earn Avios based on spending in the local currency. Here's how much you'll earn per 1 USD\/GBP\/EUR\/AUD\/CAD spent:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Burgundy:<\/strong> 1 Avios<\/li>\n<li><strong>Silver:<\/strong> 2 Avios<\/li>\n<li><strong>Gold:<\/strong> 3 Avios<\/li>\n<li><strong>Platinum:<\/strong> 4 Avios<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Once your rental has been completed, your Avios will be awarded within 30 days. This is a simple way to make a Turo rental that you were already planning to book even more rewarding.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_273722\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img data-aspectratio=\"750\/477\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-273722 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/awardwallet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Screenshot-2026-08-12-at-11.16.25.png\" alt=\"Image showing how many Avios you'll earn on Turo purchases\" width=\"750\" height=\"477\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/awardwallet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Screenshot-2026-08-12-at-11.16.25.png 932w, https:\/\/awardwallet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Screenshot-2026-08-12-at-11.16.25-750x477.png 750w, https:\/\/awardwallet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Screenshot-2026-08-12-at-11.16.25-900x573.png 900w, https:\/\/awardwallet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Screenshot-2026-08-12-at-11.16.25-768x489.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><center><em>Screenshot of Turo<\/em><\/enter><\/figure>\n<h3><span id=\"Terms_and_conditions\">Terms and conditions<\/span><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Privilege Club members must register for the offer and enter their membership number to link to their Turo account <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/turo.com\/gb\/en\/qatar\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li>All Turo bookings worldwide for any date and trip duration are eligible.<\/li>\n<li>Members will earn anywhere from 1 to 4 Avios per $1 spent through this offer.<\/li>\n<li>Avios earnings are based on total spending, including taxes and fees.<\/li>\n<li>The applicable Privilege Club tier is determined based on your status at the time of booking.<\/li>\n<li>Incidentals, fees, and other charges made after the trip has ended are excluded.<\/li>\n<li>Avios will not be earned on any trip where a promotional code or Turo travel credit is applied.<\/li>\n<li>Avios will be credited within 30 days after the rental is completed.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span id=\"Double_Dip_on_Turo_Rentals\">Double Dip on Turo Rentals<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>There are regularly <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/awardwallet.com\/news\/chase-ultimate-rewards\/chase-offers\/\" rel=\"noopener\">Chase Offers<\/a>, <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/awardwallet.com\/credit-cards\/current-citi-merchant-offers\/\" rel=\"noopener\">Citi Offers<\/a>, or <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/awardwallet.com\/news\/amex-membership-rewards\/amex-offers\/\" rel=\"noopener\">Amex Offers<\/a> that allow you to save money on Turo rentals.
