[edit] Emerald Club
The basic Emerald Club membership is open to all who pay an annual fee of $50 or qualify through a partner program.
Benefits:
- Emerald Club Aisle access - reserve and pay for a mid-size car and choose any car available in the Emerald Club Aisle (aka "Emerald Aisle"). This often includes some slightly upscale models, SUVs, and vans.
- E-receipt - no need to wait for an agent when returning a rental.
- Choice of rewards:
- One free rental day per seven rental credits (either one rental or four consecutive rental days)
- Airline miles with many major programs
[edit] Emerald Club Executive
Emerald Club members with at least 12 rentals or 40 rental days in a calendar year will be awarded Executive status.
Additional benefits:
- Emerald Club Executive access - a special aisle of larger or premium cars to choose from. Technically, an Executive member must reserve and pay for one class lower than the car selected (mid-size for full-size rental, full-size for premium), but this is not always enforced, with many Executive members driving luxury cars at mid-size rates.
- Free rental day after six rental credits
[edit] Emerald Club Executive Elite
Emerald Club members with at least 25 rentals or 85 rental days in a calendar year will be awarded Executive Elite status.
Additional benefits:
- Free rental day after five rental credits
- Free days can include any vehicle size or class
- Guaranteed availability with 24 hours notice
[edit] Status Matches
National is not known to give status matches for customers of other agencies, but they will sometimes waive the $50 annual fee on request. National Corporate Benefits (877-707-1086) has been known to status match for some corporate clients.
