More Details on the Hertz Gold Plus Rewards Mobile Alerts:

What happens on the day of the car rental?

As soon as your rental car is ready, we will send you a Hertz Gold Plus Rewards Mobile Alert by either email, SMS or both, depending on your profile selection. The message will include the rental car we have selected for you and the plate number. At U.S. airports with Hertz Gold Plus Rewards Boards, the stall number the rental car is parked in will be posted, so you can go straight to your rental car and get on your way. At other Hertz locations, you need to pick up the keys and contract from a Hertz representative.

What if I want a different car?

We want you to always have the best rental car experience. So if you would like a different car, you have two choices:

1. Go to the Hertz Gold Choice®* area and, if you have booked at least an intermediate or midsize car, you can pick from any of the available rental car models or choose to upgrade to one of the specialty rental cars.
   
2. Ask a Hertz representative at the Gold Counter about available special offers.

What if I am late?

If you are late or we need to change your rental car, we will send you a message to let you know. Just come straight to the Gold Counter when you arrive and we will get you on your way.

What if I don’t need the rental car anymore?

Just call the phone number in the message or click the link to Hertz.com to cancel the rental car reservation. We appreciate you letting us know.

Just check the Hertz Gold Plus Rewards Board on arrival or step over to the Gold Counter. Also check that the email address and mobile phone number in your profile are up to date. For SMS Hertz Gold Plus Rewards Mobile Gold Alerts, you will need to respond to the Opt in Message (see details below) before you can start receiving them.
