Airmiles (Canada) Program
 

Does anyone know if they still offer pre-paid credit cards or gift cards? I don’t see this under merchandise rewards but maybe I’m missing something.

There are evouchers which seem to be similar to gift cards: https://rewards.airmiles.ca/cashrewa...gion_filter=ON

Thanks, Mia. Unfortunately the store I need is Staples(not listed). I was hoping for a pre-paid cc type thing I could use anywhere.

Update: I looked into the e-cards. It seems they can be used in specific stores (listed by region). Appear to be better value but only valid on merchandise, not store-specific gift cards, settling an account, etc. Not too many stores listed for my region.

Airmiles.ca: Change in accumulation at Metro?
 

Recently I noticed that the accumulation rules for Metro (at least in ON) seem to have changed. For Metro it was 1 mile/$20 spent over a one week period. Now it seems to be per shop. Was this announced? Have I misunderstood?

Airmiles.ca — rewards and mileage acquisition
 

With all the program changes taking place in the last year or two, one of my primary sources for mileage accumulation has disappeared from the program.

What I’m looking for is actually on offer! I need a few hundred additional airmiles for a reward (merchandise) that I’m keen to order. The website offered an option to buy the top up for a silly amount of $.

Would appreciate any thoughts about the easiest way in this revamped program (other than cash) to acquire what’s needed fairly quickly.
