CIBC and Skip have just reached a new milestone in their partnership launched in November 2024. Since April 29, 2026, eligible CIBC cardholders can enjoy a free Skip+ membership for life, as long as they keep their card. Previously, the benefit was limited to 12 free months, followed by reduced subscription fees.
A Skip+ membership normally costs $9.99 per month. By linking an eligible CIBC card to your Skip account, you make these fees disappear completely for as long as you remain a cardholder.
The offer covers almost the entire CIBC portfolio, for both credit and debit. Here is the official list of eligible products.
To compare the options currently offered by the bank, see The Best CIBC Credit Cards – April 2026.
Activation takes only a few minutes. Make sure to have your CIBC card on hand and a Skip account (existing or to be created).
For those who hold a CIBC Dividend Card, the cash back can be combined with the Skip+ offer. I strongly recommend consulting our tutorial CIBC: How to Redeem Cash Back from a CIBC Dividend Card to optimize your returns.
Let’s look at what the offer represents in concrete terms according to different usage profiles. However, these calculations are estimates based on advertised benefits and do not take into account taxes, tips, or variable service fees.
For a household that orders at least 4 times per month at $30 or more, the annual savings easily exceed $260 when adding the free subscription and monthly vouchers. In other words, for regular Skip users, the value is obvious.
The offer is generous, but it includes several conditions to be aware of before committing. Here are the points to watch for.
Skip is not the only platform to offer a subscription with free delivery. Here is how the CIBC × Skip+ offer positions itself compared to other services in Canada.
If you use multiple delivery platforms, keeping Skip+ free thanks to CIBC frees up budget to subscribe elsewhere if needed. The CIBC advantage stands out for its unlimited duration and the absence of a spending threshold to activate it.
However, if Skip is not your preferred app, it is better to evaluate where you actually order from before committing.
For current CIBC cardholders, the answer is clear: yes, without hesitation. The CIBC partnership with Skip is one of the simplest ancillary benefits to activate for cardholders of this bank. No additional annual fees, no minimum spending, just a quick pairing between your card and your Skip account. Activation takes a few minutes and the $20 welcome voucher immediately makes the process worthwhile, even without regular use.
Otherwise, if you are hesitating between several issuers, the offer can become an additional argument for considering a CIBC card, particularly if you are shopping for a new card in the cash back or travel category and regularly order food for delivery.
