Join the Club… the Emerald Club
CAA Members earn free car rental days and more when they join the Emerald Club®
It’s peak road trip season – have you joined the club yet? And by club, we’re referring to CAA’s preferred car rental partner, National’s Emerald Club®.
When you’re an Emerald Club member, you can bypass the rental counter and go directly to the Emerald Aisle® available at more than 70 major airports in Canada and the US. Simply reserve a Midsize car at participating locations and choose any available vehicle in the Emerald Aisle (the keys are in the car) – and be on your way quickly and conveniently.
And it’s even better when you’re a CAA Member. Connect your CAA Membership card to National's Emerald Club to instantly start benefiting from the program. You’ll EARN an additional 50% in CAA Dollars® on your booking!
What’s more, your CAA Membership (Everyday, Classic®, Plus®, or Premier®) automatically grants you access to your Emerald Club tier:
- CAA Everyday & Classic Members join the Emerald Club for FREE
- CAA Plus Members join the Emerald Club for FREE at Executive®® status
- CAA Premier Members join the Emerald Club for FREE at Executive Elite® status
1. Free Rental Day covers base rate (Time and Mileage) only.
Emerald Club Status
Emerald Club® status is the first tier in National’s loyalty membership program. Members can earn 1 rental credit for every qualified car rental. Accumulate just seven rental credits and you’ve got yourself a FREE Rental Day.

Emerald Club Executive Status
Life isn’t one-size-fits-all. Neither is CAA. And neither is the Emerald Club! When you’ve got a CAA Plus Membership, you can automatically enroll in National’s Emerald Club at the Executive status.
As an Executive member, you’ll earn faster free car rental days with just six rental credits; plus choose any car (Full-size and above) in the Executive area and only pay the reserved Midsize rate – and you’re always guaranteed a free upgrade when you reserve using the Midsize rate (in Canada and the US).

Plus, enjoy the guarantee of always having the car you want, when you want it (up to Full-size) with 24-hour notice when you reserve using the Midsize rate (in Canada and the US), as well as Private Airport Delivery.
