We strive to keep our information accurate and up-to-date, but some information may not be current. So, your actual offer terms from an advertiser may be different than the offer terms on this site.

When you click on that hyperlink or button, you may be directed to the credit card issuer’s website where you can review the terms and conditions for your selected offer. Each advertiser is responsible for the accuracy and availability of its ad offer details, but we attempt to verify those offer details. We have partnerships with advertisers such as Brex, Capital One, Chase, Citi, Wells Fargo and Discover. We also include editorial content to educate consumers about financial products and services. Some of that content may also contain ads, including links to advertisers’ sites, and we may be paid on those ads or links.

    Do you have airline, hotel, or rental car elite status?  If so, you probably qualify for a status match with Sixt Rent a Car.

    Via MileCards, Sixt is offering Platinum elite status to folks who already have mid-to-top tier elite status with another loyalty program when they sign-up for the Sixt Rewards program.

    You Can Rent Luxury Cars at Decent Prices With Sixt

    I’ll tell you about Sixt Platinum status, and show you how to get it!

    Is Sixt Elite Status Worth Your Time?

    Link:   Register for Sixt Platinum Status

    Sixt gives Platinum status to folks who rent more than 10 times per year.  But right now, Sixt will give you top tier Platinum status just for holding similar elite status with another loyalty program!

    To get the status match, sign-up for their rewards card and give them your information and proof of status with an airline, hotel, or car rental program.

    With Sixt Platinum status, you’ll get:

    Luxury cards, free upgrades, and priority service are great!  But if your main concern is saving money when you rent a car, there are better ways to book.

    There are LOTS of ways to get big discounts on car rentals, like booking through Hotwire or the Chase Ultimate Rewards portal.  Or tracking your rental with AutoSlash, a free service that monitors your car rental reservations for price drops, and re-books you if they find a lower price.

    How to Register

    Registering is quick, and the status match is instant.

    1.   Navigate to the Sixt Platinum Card Page

    Go to the Sixt Platinum Card page and click “Sign-Up“ at the bottom of the page

    Step 1 – Click “Sign-Up”

    2.   Create a Sixt Account

    Fill out the form to create a new Sixt account, agree to the terms and conditions, and press “Continue“.

    Step 2 – Complete the Form

    3.   Add More Details to Your New Account

    Tell Sixt a little more about yourself and press “Continue“.

    Step 3 – Fill Out a Few More Details

    4.   Click “Card Upgrade”

    Before you complete your registration, click “Card Upgrade“.  This will let you match your elite status to Sixt.

    Step 4 – Click “Card Upgrade”

    5.   Input Your Elite Status

    Sixt will give you a menu of programs to choose from, including airline, hotel, and car rental programs.  Choose your elite status program, enter your loyalty number, and attach a screenshot proving your elite status.

    Then click “Complete Registration“.

    Step 5 – Provide Sixt With Proof of Your Elite Status

    You should instantly receive Sixt elite status!

    Don’t Have Airline or Hotel Elite Status?

    There are credit cards that give you free hotel elite status just for having the card.  You can then use your free hotel status for a Sixt status match.

    For example, if you have the Chase Ritz-Carlton Rewards credit card, you will automatically have Marriott Gold status.  And if you have the The Platinum Card® from American Express, you can call to be upgraded to Starwood Gold status.

    Note:   You can also get complimentary elite status with Sixt and 2 other rental car agencies if you have a World Elite MasterCard, like the Citi Prestige card.

    And remember to rent with a credit card that gives you primary rental car insurance, like the Chase Sapphire Preferred or Chase Ritz-Carlton.  Or a card that earns bonus points, like the Citi Prestige Card.

    Bottom Line

    Sixt Rent a Car is offering an upgrade to Platinum status when you sign-up for their program and show proof of similar elite status with another loyalty program.

    Sixt Platinum status comes with perks like free upgrades (double upgrades in the US), discounts, and priority reservations.

    But Sixt is not the cheapest option out there.  So if you aren’t concerned about scoring a luxury car, there are more affordable ways to rent a car.

    And if you’re a World Elite MasterCard holder, you already qualify for Sixt Platinum status.

    Let me know if you get a status match!
