Wyndham Hotel Group has signed a multi-year partnership agreement with Avis Budget Group, making the two companies partners of the newly re-imagined Wyndham Rewards loyalty program.

Wyndham Rewards members now earn double the points previously earned per day on eligible Avis and Budget rentals — 100 points daily — while receiving greater access to money-saving offers. Members also have the option of converting Wyndham Rewards points to rental certificates, starting with as few as 6,500 points.

“Wyndham Rewards is all about simplicity, generosity and rewarding those who’ve earned it,” says Wyndham Hotel Group SVP for worldwide loyalty and engagement Noah Brodsky. “With great vehicles, thousands of locations globally and now double the points, Avis and Budget are the perfect fit for our members.”

To celebrate the expanded partnership, Wyndham Rewards members can receive up to 30 percent off all eligible Avis and Budget rentals, plus a bonus of 750 to 1,000 Wyndham Rewards points, depending on their Wyndham Rewards status. Bonus points are in addition to the standard 100 points earned daily. This promotion will run until the end of the year.

“The new Wyndham Rewards program makes it easier than ever for members to earn and redeem points for meaningful rewards,” says Avis Budget Group VP for global travel and partnerships Tom Villani. “We’re thrilled that Wyndham Rewards has selected Avis Budget Group as its exclusive car rental provider. The expanded relationship will help generate incremental rental volume while giving Wyndham Rewards members an even more rewarding rental experience.” www.wyndham.com
