Before shopping online during Black Friday, you have to be aware of online shopping portals.
By going through one of these online shopping portals BEFORE making your purchases, you will earn points, miles or cash back. And it’s in addition to the ones you will get, just by using your credit card!
There are three main online shopping portals in Canada:
These three online shopping portals run great offers during Black Friday and Cyber Monday.
During Black Friday, Aeroplan is running an event until November 29th.
This year, you can earn even more Aeroplan points by using several offers:
The easiest being:
By using 4 offers, you’ll get 5,000 Aeroplan bonus points!
By logging in to the Aeroplan eStore, you will be able to shop with different Aeroplan partners to earn up to 10x the points.
During Black Friday, airmilesshops.ca offers 10x the miles on the entire portal.
This means that:
That’s 10 miles / $20 purchases.
Don’t forget that during the Shop The Block Event 2020, a $100 purchase via airmilesshops.ca counts as one offer.
And if you make this $100 purchase on an online retailer like The Children’s Place (Shop The Block Partner), you’ll make a new offer! Enough to make two offers in one purchase!
Rakuten.ca (formerly known as eBates) is an online shopping portal offering cash back.
If you go through this portal BEFORE shopping at partner online stores, you can earn cash back on your purchases.
By registering for a new account through our referral link, you will get a $5 credit after $25 of online purchases!
