If your American Express SIXT ride credits aren't showing, the most common cause is an email address mismatch between your enrolment and your SIXT account — follow the steps below to resolve it.

1. Email address mismatch

The email used during enrolment must match the one on your SIXT account.

1. Check your enrolment confirmation email to see which address you used.
2. Open the SIXT App → Account Settings → Personal Details to confirm your SIXT account email.
3. If the addresses differ, choose one of the following options:
   • Option A: Create a new SIXT account using the email address you enrolled the benefit with.
   • Option B: Contact the SIXT support team to update the email address linked to your benefit. You'll need to provide your personal reference ID (found in your enrolment confirmation email) to verify your identity and authorise the change.

2. Card eligibility issue

Your American Express® Card may no longer be eligible for the benefit.

1. Log in to the Amex Experiences App and confirm the SIXT ride credit is available for your card.
2. Check that your SIXT ride credit has been activated.
3. If your card has been cancelled or downgraded, re-enrol with an eligible card.

What happens to your American Express credits when you cancel a SIXT ride depends on whether a cancellation fee applies to your booking.

No cancellation fee

If no cancellation fee applies, your credit is returned to your account in full.

• The credit is automatically restored to your available balance
• You can use it towards another booking
• Your total credit count stays the same

Cancellation policies vary by ride class — check the booking conditions for your specific ride.

Cancellation fee applies

If your cancellation incurs a fee, your ride credit is used to cover it.

• The full credit value is applied towards the cancellation fee
• This applies even if the cancellation fee is lower than the credit value
• Any remaining balance is forfeited — you won't receive change or a partial credit

American Express ride credits cannot be combined with other promotions, discounts, or special rates — they work as a standalone benefit on eligible SIXT ride bookings.

What this means for your booking

• Your American Express ride credit applies automatically to eligible chauffeur bookings
• No other promotional code, discount, or special rate can be applied at the same time
• The credit is designed to reduce the cost of premium chauffeur services on its own

Next step

Book your next SIXT ride and your American Express credit will be applied at checkout — no code needed.
