Amazon and Avis just started a new benefit if you are an Amazon customer and rent with Avis. You can earn 10% or 20% cashback in the form of Amazon gift cards on your rentals in the United States. You will earn a percentage only on base rate and mileage. This excludes all fees, taxes and extra additions to your rental. This is still a pretty good deal, depending on how much and often you rent with Avis.
To use this benefit you have to link your Amazon account with Avis and use your “Amazon Benefit” in the AWD section while making a reservation. (Direct link to link your Amazon and Avis account).
This offer can’t be combined with any other AWD numbers and you have to make sure it says “Amazon Benefit” while making the reservation.
The “Amazon Benefit” AWD code will sync to your account and will be also available in the app. Make sure you have it selected and not another AWD code.
Besides the cashback, you will also earn up to 30% off base-rate for your car rental. Remember it is an “up to” not a guaranteed 30% off. It depends on location and availability.
How do determine how much cashback you get?
- 10% back as an Amazon.com Gift Card applies to time and mileage charges of completed rentals using your Amazon Benefits on avis.com, excluding Alexa Skill rentals.
- 20% back as an Amazon Gift Card applies to time and mileage charges of completed rentals using your Amazon Benefits with Alexa Skill.
- It will take up to 48 hours to receive the digital gift card, which will be sent to your email associated with your Amazon account.
