Customers subscribing to the Program cannot be enrolled into another Europcar card loyalty program in any country whatsoever.
The Program cannot be used in conjunction with any other Europcar subscription program such as Funway, Autoliberté or EuropcarClub. Any subscription to another program will terminate the subscription to this Program.
However, the Program can be used together with Europcar Partner Frequent traveller programs, i.e. Privilege members can earn Privilege credits and Frequent Traveller miles/points for a same rental.
When joining the Program for the first time, the Driver qualifies for the entry Tier level which is the Privilege Club.
Each Privilege Member will be provided with a single, individual and not transferable Privilege card displaying:
- His or her Tier level
- The expiry date for his or her current card when a Privilege Company Charge card is issued - the Company name if the driver is a Corporate / Partner client - the relevant Corporate contract code on the back of the card - the Privilege Charge card mention if applicable together with the related business account on the back of the card - the signature of the Privilege Member on the back of the card.
The Privilege card is sent by post to the Privilege Member within three weeks after enrolment for ID cards and within 3 weeks after duly approved Privilege Charge card form has been returned to the relevant Europcar’s Administrator.
In order to benefit from all advantages of the Program, advance booking is mandatory: the Privilege Member must indicate his or her Europcar ID when making a reservation either by logging in before booking or during the online booking process or by quoting his/her Europcar ID when booking over the phone. In some locations, it might be required to present the Privilege card at vehicle pick-up date and time
If the Privilege card is lost, damaged or stolen, the Privilege Member must inform the Administrator of his/her country of residence by phone or email: the relevant contact details are available online in the Loyalty Information section of My Europcar once logged-in or in the Contact us section.
In order to get his/her Privilege card replaced, the Privilege Member will need to quote his/her Europcar ID. Europcar will replace the Privilege card at no cost. In the meantime, the Privilege Member can use his/her Europcar ID to be identified and benefit from the Privilege benefits.
5.1 The "Ready Service"
Each Privilege Member will benefit from a faster rental process: the "ReadyService" if he/she has filled in their payment and preferred insurance details in his/her profile or if he/she is entitled to a Privilege Charge card.
In these cases, the ReadyService gives access to a Master Rental Agreement whereby all information is pre-printed on the rental agreement on arrival in the Europcar agency, via dedicated lines or counters in the major airports.
Otherwise, Privilege Members will be able to select the ReadyService for each booking via the eReady online option when applicable.
The ReadyService is available in the following participating stations.
5.1.1 Rental Process
All rentals processed through the ReadyService are governed by Europcar General terms and Conditions including without limitation Europcar General rental terms and Europcar Specific rental Terms per country
To be able to benefit from the ReadyService, the Privilege Member shall make his/her reservation up to 2 (two) hours prior to the vehicle pick-up time and date.
Options that are not available online such as optional insurances will not allow the Privilege Member to benefit from the ReadyService as he/she will need to directly buy them at the counter.
In some Europcar Privilege locations in Germany, the Privilege Member will be able to benefit from the Ready Key Terminal, via a self-service key box system (see list below). This enables the Privilege Member to retrieve his/her car keys and rental agreement directly from an automated kiosk via his/her Privilege card thus bypassing the counter and going directly to the car park.
When booking on line, the Privilege member will receive an online booking confirmation for each rental.
5.1.2 Payment Terms
By signing up the Privilege enrollment form online with the permanent ReadyService via full payment details entry or via Privilege Charge card enrollment, the Privilege member accepts for his/her Payment ID to be charged with all amounts related to the rental without having to sign the rental agreement at the counter unless the local law of the country of rental expressly forbids such practice (e.g. South Africa and Portugal).
If the Privilege Member enrolls without the Ready service option, i.e. without entering the means of payment and preferred insurance details, the Privilege Member will be offered the eReady option when applicable or will need to enter the means of payment details each time he/she books a Vehicle.
If the Privilege Member chooses the “prepayment” option, the payment of the rental price will be charged on the Payment ID entered at time of booking and additional charges, if any, will be charged upon return of the Vehicle.. When the Privilege Member selects the “pay at pick up” price, the Payment ID entered will be automatically charged with all sums related to the rental at time of Vehicle return without the Privilege Member having to show such Payment ID at the counter. If several Payment ID are entered on the Profile or Privilege enrollment form, the preferred Payment ID will be the first preferred valid bank card or the Privilege Charge card if applicable.
