American Express has a new Amex Offer available to help you save on your next car rental. This offer can be particularly helpful if you have any trips planned in the next couple of months.

Through July 31, you can get $80 back after spending $400 or more at Avis.

Let’s take a look at the details.

Save up to 20% With New Avis Amex Offer

For this Amex Offer, you’ll need to spend $400 or more on a U.S. car rental at Avis to get $80 back as a statement credit. This offer is valid through July 31, 2026.

Like most Amex Offers, you don’t have to spend the entire amount in 1 transaction. You can have multiple rental transactions until the deadline. Once you hit the $400 threshold, you’ll receive the $80 back as a statement credit. Assuming you spend exactly $400 on an Avis car rental, $80 back represents a 20% savings, which is a considerable discount.

If you want to take advantage of this offer, you should purchase and rent directly through Avis.

This offer expires on July 31, 2026, so you need to pay for your rental by this date. To ensure you receive the credit, end your rental several days before to ensure there’s enough time for the charge to post by then.

Hot Tip:

This offer may be available on more than 1 Amex card. Be sure to check them all out before adding the promotion to a specific card! Furthermore, this Avis Amex Offer is likely to be on a higher-end American Express card.

What Are Amex Offers?

Amex Offers are found on all American Express-issued credit cards. Head into your Amex app or log in to your account on the website, and you’ll see an Offers tab for each card you have. You can frequently save lots of money on top merchants worldwide — and for usually very reasonable spending requirements.

Once you find an Amex Offer you want to use, simply click the button to activate it. Then, any qualifying purchases will trigger the statement credit. You’ll only receive credit if you add the offer to your card before making qualifying purchases, and not everyone will see the same offers.

Final Thoughts

If you’ve got an upcoming car rental, be sure to check your American Express cards to see if you were targeted to save $80 on your booking of $400 or more at Avis. You could save considerably on upcoming rentals through July 31, 2026.
