Aeroplan eStore Promotion: Earn Up to 5x Points on Apple Products

Aeroplan is among the most easily accessible points programs in Canada, due to the wide range of bonuses and promotions offered throughout the year.

In addition to credit card welcome bonuses and transferring points from bank and hotel partners, the Aeroplan eStore is one of many methods available to earn Aeroplan points, especially during one of the frequent eStore bonus events.

Currently, Aeroplan is offering 5x points on eligible Apple purchases, through to September 6, 2024.

Apple Products: Up to 5x Points on the Aeroplan eStore

When making purchases through the Aeroplan eStore, the standard earning rate is 1 Aeroplan point per dollar spent before taxes and shipping.

With the latest eStore promotion, Aeroplan members can earn up to 5 Aeroplan points per dollar spent on select Apple products until September 6, 2024.

As per usual, you’ll want to take note of any limits and exclusions for this promotion, which are outlined as follows:

Please note the following items are not eligible for the accumulation of Aeroplan points: Apple Vision Pro, all Apple Vision Pro Accessories, Apple Pro Display XDR, gift cards, gift wrap, Apple Developer Programs, AppleCare+ monthly subscription, Employee Purchasing Programs and shipping. Orders purchased on the Government or Military and Veteran’s Stores are not eligible for additional Aeroplan points. Apple sells and ships products to end user customers only; you may not purchase for resale. Eligible only to a customer for up to five (5) units per eligible product, except iPhone, in which case only two (2) units within a thirty-day (30-day) period are eligible.

Promotions such as these are excellent opportunities to earn a big chunk of points in a single purchase. If you’re in need of some new Apple technology, bonus events like this offer you the best return in points for your purchase.

For example, if you were to buy a Macbook Pro for around $2,000 (CAD), you’d earn at least 10,000 Aeroplan points for the purchase, since you can further boost your earning rate, which we’ll explore below.

Other Ways to Earn Points at the Aeroplan eStore

While the above promotional earning rates can be a great deal, there are a couple of other ways that can help you boost your balance.

If you have Aeroplan Elite Status, you’ll earn an extra 2 Aeroplan points per dollar spent on all eStore purchases as part of your elite benefits. This means that you can earn a total of 7 Aeroplan points per dollar spent on purchases via this promotion.

And of course, if you pay with your Amazon purchase using your Aeroplan co-branded credit card, you’ll earn even more points as a result.

If you were to pay for your Apple eStore purchases with, say, the TD® Aeroplan® Visa Infinite Privilege* Card, you could earn up to 8.25 Aeroplan points per dollar spent on Apple products at the eStore: 5x points as a promotional base rate, 2x points with Aeroplan Elite Status, and 1.25x points from the base earning with a premium co-branded credit card.

Keep in mind that some of the points earned through the Aeroplan eStore also count towards Everyday Status Qualification.

As part of the Everyday Status Qualification feature, members need to earn 100,000 Aeroplan points via eligible sources within the calendar year to qualify for the entry-level Aeroplan 25K status. With any bonus multipliers, you’ll be much closer to reaching that threshold than if you were just earning the base rate.

(Note that the extra 2x Aeroplan points on eStore purchases for existing Aeroplan Elite Status members doesn’t count towards Everyday Status Qualification).

Lastly, it’s worth noting that the eStore hasn’t historically been 100% reliable in terms of tracking and crediting every purchase. Therefore, it’s definitely a good idea to keep a record of the points you expect to receive and the date of your eStore purchase, in case you need to follow up on any missing points.
