Just as any other industry out there, it’s becoming a trend to try and “disrupt” it. Maybe I’m just a little cynical, but a lot of big businesses operate the same way today as they did even 20 years ago. With the advent of the internet and mobile phones, new ideas of integration come into play each and every single day. Silvercar is one of those sort of companies. They have changed the way a rental car experience should be, and there is no other company in the car rental industry that are more innovative then they are. Now though, they are adding a new feature, a loyalty program!
The Details
When you first use Silver card, you will automatically be enrolled into the program. From there, every single dollar you spend on Silvercar (excluding taxes and fees) will get you 1 point. The points are worth about 10 cents per point, and will expire after 5 years of inactivity.
Final Thoughts
While I usually don’t rent cars that often, I’ve always considered using Silvercar due to how much fun it would be to rent an Audi vs a normal, rather boring car for about the same price. This loyalty program could actually make me want to try it if I do rent a car though, the points themselves, being worth about 10 cents per point is something that’s pretty valuable, especially for repeat visits. We’ll have to try them out and see how it goes. Keep in mind there’s a 20% discount when you use a Visa Infinite card!
