| Uber Eats – Base offer | 1 point/CAN$ on orders of $40 or more |
| Uber Grocery – Base offer | 1 point/CAN$ on a grocery or retail delivery order made via the Uber or Uber Eats applications, excluding certain regulated items. |
| Uber rides in Canada to and from an airport | 1 point/CAN$ excluding UberX Share on rides in Canada to and from airports, where available. |
| Uber Premium | 1 point/CAN$ on Uber Premium rides (including UberXL, Comfort, Comfort Electric, Comfort Business, Premier, Premier SUV, Black and Black SUV) |
All accumulations apply only to Uber services in Canada and are calculated on the amount before promotions and discounts, excluding taxes, fees and tips.

Bottom Line
While it will soon no longer be possible to earn Aeroplan points on Uber services in the U.S., it is now possible to earn Marriott Bonvoy points in the U.S. by linking your accounts.
Plus, by using the American Express Cobalt® Card as your payment method on Uber or Uber Eats, you’ll earn 5 American Express Membership Rewards points per Canadian dollar spent on food delivery, and 2 points per Canadian dollar for Uber rides. You can then convert your Membership Rewards points to Aeroplan at a 1:1 ratio and do double dip on rewards.
