A status match lets you transfer your elite tier from one loyalty program to a competing one — often for free. Most guides only show which programs have open matches. We show you both directions: where you can match TO with your current status, and who can match TO your program. Use the navigator below to jump to your program, or scroll through all active opportunities.

Easiest top-tier hotel match available to Europeans.
A status match is an agreement where one loyalty program recognizes your elite tier in another and grants you an equivalent level. Airlines do it to lure competitors’ frequent flyers. Hotels do it to win over business travellers. Car rental programs use it to grab weekday renters.
There are two common forms. A direct match applies your existing tier immediately, usually for 3–12 months, on the strength of proof alone. A status challenge grants temporary status and asks you to complete a reduced number of flights, nights or rentals to keep it.
Direct matches are almost always free. Challenges sometimes carry a fee in the 50–200 dollar range, often refunded if you meet the requirements. Processing takes anything from a few hours to two weeks, depending on the program.
Most programs limit you to one match per member, or one every few years. Offers also come and go: a program may quietly pause its matching page during a busy season and reopen it later. Always check current terms before you apply.
Both paths lead to elite status, but they work differently in practice.
| Direct match | Status challenge | |
|---|---|---|
| Speed | Instant to 2 weeks | 60–90 day trial |

Check eligibility and confidence rating
Verify the source program, tier and any regional restrictions. High-confidence offers are the safest to apply for.
Gather documentation
Usually a screenshot of your account page showing name, tier and member number. Some programs also ask for a recent boarding pass or folio.
Submit through website or email
Most programs use an online form; a few still require an email to their loyalty desk. Follow the exact instructions on the official terms page.
Wait for processing
Response times range from minutes to two weeks. Some programs confirm by email, others update your account silently.
Complete challenge requirements if applicable
If you received a challenge, track the flights, nights or rentals you need and keep proof of every one.
