Can You Stack Avis Car Rental Coupons and Discounts?
Direct answer: Yes — in many cases you can. Avis allows you to combine a coupon code with an AWD discount code (Avis Worldwide Discount) on the same booking. This means you can apply a money-off or upgrade coupon at the same time as a membership, promotional, or corporate AWD discount — stacking both savings on a single reservation. CarRentalSavers.com applies both automatically when you search.
Stacking an Avis coupon with an Avis AWD discount code is one of the most effective ways to get a cheap Avis car rental — and it is one of the key advantages of booking through CarRentalSavers.com, where both codes are selected from dropdowns and applied simultaneously rather than having to enter them manually on Avis's website.

How to Stack Avis Coupons and Discounts
Combining an Avis coupon and AWD discount code on CarRentalSavers.com is built directly into the search form:
- Go to carrentalsavers.com/avis
- Enter your pickup location, dates, and times
- Select your Avis coupon from the coupon dropdown (e.g. $15 off, free upgrade, free SUV upgrade)
- Select your Avis discount from the discount dropdown — Mastercard, Costco, military, or any other option. If you don't have a membership AWD, still check — promotional AWDs with no membership requirement are included
- Click Search — Smart Book applies both codes simultaneously and returns results with the combined discount already calculated
Important — add your Avis Preferred number at checkout: If you have an Avis Preferred number, enter it at the checkout page when confirming your booking through CarRentalSavers.com. It cannot be added after the booking is confirmed. Avis Preferred members can skip the counter at many locations, earn points toward free rental days, and use online check-in directly from their confirmation email.

Tips for Getting the Best Combined Avis Rate
- Try both percentage AWDs — Avis currently offers both an up to 40% off and an up to 35% off promotional AWD. Try each one from the discount dropdown and compare the totals — the higher percentage doesn't always produce a lower total depending on your dates and location.
- Consider the free upgrade coupon — the free upgrade coupons are good for off airport rentals and longer rentals when it is more important to have a larger car and the savings is more than the money off coupon. Note, free upgrades for Avis show in our search results next to the vehicle description.
- The $15 off coupon is great for Airport rentals — combine it with an AWD to save even more on your next airport rental.
- Prepay for extra savings — Avis prepay rates are typically lower than non discounted Pay Later rates. If your plans are confirmed, prepaying with a coupon and AWD applied can produce the cheapest Avis rate available. Note that prepaid rates are non-refundable.
- Free cancellation on Pay Later rates — book a Pay Later rate now with your coupon and discount stacked, then cancel for free and rebook if a better rate appears before your pickup date.
- Check blackout dates — Avis coupons and discounts may not apply during holidays and peak periods. If a code isn't reducing the price, try adjusting your dates slightly or try another code.
Pro Tip: If you have multiple AWD options — for example both Mastercard and Costco — run the search twice on CarRentalSavers.com, once with each AWD alongside the same coupon. The discount percentage varies by program and one will often produce a meaningfully lower total for your specific dates and location. The whole comparison takes under two minutes.
