Alliance Data Systems Corporation (NYSE: ADS), a leading provider of loyalty and marketing solutions derived from transaction-rich data, today announced that it has signed multi-year renewal agreements with Budgetcar, Inc., a subsidiary of Avis Budget Group, Inc., as a national sponsor and reward supplier in Alliance Data's Canadian AIR MILES(R) Reward Program. Budget has been a sponsor and rewards supplier in the AIR MILES coalition since 2007, issuing reward miles to Canadian AIR MILES Collectors who rent vehicles in Canada. Under terms of the sponsor renewal agreement, Budget will also issue reward miles to collectors who rent cars in the United States, effective by the end of the first quarter, 2010. Under terms of the reward supplier renewal agreement, collectors can now also redeem reward miles for U.S. car rentals.
The AIR MILES Reward Program is Canada's premier coalition loyalty program, with approximately two-thirds of Canadian households actively collecting reward miles. AIR MILES collectors earn reward miles at more than 100 leading brand-name sponsors representing thousands of retail and service locations across Canada. AIR MILES reward miles can be redeemed for more than 1,200 different rewards, such as travel, movie passes, entertainment attractions, and electronic merchandise.
"The multi-year renewal agreements - and specifically the new opportunity for Collectors to earn reward miles for bookings in the United States - enables both Budget and the AIR MILES Reward Program to increase customer transaction frequency and issue incremental reward miles," said Bryan Pearson, president, Alliance Data's LoyaltyOne business. "Budget's ongoing participation in our coalition loyalty program represents a strategic advantage for one of the world's best-known brands in the highly competitive car and truck rental industry."
"We are pleased to extend our relationship with Alliance Data and continue our participation in the AIR MILES program," said Bill Boxberger, vice president and general manager of Avis Budget Group, Canada. "Budget customers depend on us for quality vehicles and great customer service. They are sure to value the AIR MILES they earn when renting with Budget."
