What\u2019s a status match?<\/strong> <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

A status match<\/strong> is when a loyalty program recognizes your elite status from another program and grants you an equivalent \u2014 or comparable \u2014 tier, without requiring you to re-earn it from scratch. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s common in airlines and hotels, and it\u2019s available at SIXT\u2019s rewards program, SIXT ONE. Our status match program is designed for travelers who already have a track record with another loyalty program and want their SIXT experience to reflect that from day one. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Who is eligible for SIXT ONE status match?<\/strong> <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

SIXT ONE accepts status match requests from members of selected car rental, airline, and hotel loyalty programs. Confirmed eligible programs include: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The complete and up-to-date list of eligible programs is available directly in the status match request form<\/a> on the SIXT website on in the Partners<\/a> page. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What status can you get?<\/strong> <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Through a status match, you can receive either Gold or Platinum status in SIXT ONE, depending on your current tier. Here\u2019s a quick look at what each level unlocks: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to request your status match<\/strong> <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The process is straightforward and takes just a few minutes. Here\u2019s what you need to do: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 1: <\/strong>Create or log into your SIXT account. You\u2019ll need an active SIXT account before you can submit a request. If you don\u2019t have one yet, you can create it for free on sixt.com or in the SIXT app \u2014 and while you\u2019re at it, enroll in SIXT ONE. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 2: <\/strong>Gather your proof of status. Take a screenshot or save a copy of your current program status that clearly shows your name and tier level. A membership card, app screenshot, or account confirmation email all work. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 3: <\/strong>Submit the status match form. Head to the SIXT ONE status match registration form and complete your request. You\u2019ll be asked to select your eligible program and upload your proof of status. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 4: <\/strong>Wait for confirmation. That\u2019s it. SIXT will review your request and send confirmation by email, typically within two weeks. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

What happens after approval<\/strong> <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Once your status match is approved Gold or Platinum status is active immediately<\/strong> \u2014 no waiting period.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Your matched status is maintained until the end of the year following the year in which it was granted, giving you a meaningful window to experience the full benefits and, if you choose, earn your way to keep or upgrade your tier. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
