Get 2000 Hilton points, £20 of driving credit and £40 off the joining fee at Enterprise Car Club

Hilton Honors has teamed up with Enterprise Car Club to offer a generous new member discount. This is especially interesting for anyone who has a Zipcar membership and may be interested in switching.

You get:

• £40 off the membership fee, which is reduced to £20 for the first year
• £20 of driving credit
• 2,000 Hilton Honors points

You can find full details, and apply, here.

What is Enterprise Car Club?

Enterprise Car Club is a competitor to Zipcar.  It offers cars ‘by the hour’ which can be booked online or via an app and picked up and dropped off – in big cities – at parking bays near your house.  In smaller towns, cars can often be picked up at railway stations, car parks or Enterprise Rent-A-Car branches.

Cars are available 24/7.  On top of the £60 annual fee, you pay an hourly charge (from £8 in London, with a daily cap of £50ish) when you rent a car and a mileage charge to reflect the distance you travel.  Fuel costs are include –  if you need to fill up, a fuel card is in the car – as is £1,000 of excess damage cover. You can pay a supplement to reduce the excess to £100.

I have no personal experience of Enterprise Car Club, although I have seen plenty of their vehicles around in London, but I have had a Zipcar membership for around 15 years now.  It works well for us, with around 10 cars within 10 minutes walk of our house, and has meant we have had no need to buy a car for day to day use.

Where does Enterprise Car Club operate?

Whilst car clubs are most commonly found in London and other big cities, Enterprise operates in smaller towns too.

There are 1,300 cars available across the UK.  The website currently shows over 200 towns as having cars available.  However, I am guessing that – outside big cities – cars are only available from your local Enterprise Rent-A-Car branch and not on residential street corners.

This offer is also available for residents of the Republic of Ireland.

How do I claim my Hilton Honors membership deal?

You need to apply via this special page of the Enterprise Car Club website.

You must be at least 22 years old to join.

As the £20 of driving credit covers the £20 membership fee for the first year, the 2,000 Hilton Honors points you will receive are an extra bonus on top.

How to earn Hilton Honors points and status from UK credit cards (April 2025)

There are various ways of earning Hilton Honors points from UK credit and debit cards.  Many cards also have generous sign-up bonuses.

There are two dedicated Hilton Honors debit cards. These are especially attractive when spending abroad due to the 0% or 0.5% FX fee, depending on card.

You also receive FREE Hilton Honors status for as long as you hold the debit cards – Gold status with the Plus card and Silver status with the basic card. This is a great reason to apply even if you rarely use it.

We reviewed the Hilton Honors Plus Debit Card here and the Hilton Honors Debit Card here.

You can apply for either card here.

SPECIAL OFFER: Until 30th April 2025, the annual fee on the basic Hilton Honors debit card is halved from £60 to £30. The sign-up bonus is also easier to earn – you need to spend £1,000 either in the UK or abroad within three months. The usual bonus rule requires you to spend the full £1,000 outside the UK.
