Amazon is a partner of two financial institutions: American Express and TD. You can redeem American Express Membership Rewards points (1,000 Membership Rewards points = $7) or TD Rewards points (1,000 points = $3.33) at Amazon.ca.

Link your American Express or TD Rewards card to your Amazon.ca Shop with Points program. At checkout, select your American Express or TD credit card as your payment method and choose the number of points to apply to your order.

However, it’s worth noting that it’s more attractive to use your points on your Amazon purchase once it’s been charged to your American Express credit card. In fact, as with any purchase, you can use your points as an account credit at the rate of 1,000 Membership Rewards points = $10. Like my purchase at IGA:

Finally, visit the Aeroplan portal: you can earn up to 5 points per dollar on Amazon products by shopping online from the Aeroplan eStore:

To celebrate its 40th anniversary, Aeroplan has announced a special offer to earn 10x points per dollar spent at select eligible retailers from July 8 to July 17, 2024. We don’t yet know if Amazon is one of them, but if it is, you’ll be able to earn on Prime Day:

• 10 Aeroplan points per dollar spent on Amazon
• 2 Aeroplan points per dollar spent on Amazon with Aeroplan status
• Up to 1.25 Aeroplan Base Points per dollar on TD Aeroplan credit card purchases

So, to earn the most points with this offer, it’s best to pay for your purchases with a TD Aeroplan credit card:

If you don’t have a specific purchase to make on Prime Day, the Amazon gift card is the best option for pampering yourself later. The advantage is that there are no fees or expiry dates to use them. They can be used to purchase eligible products and services on amazon.ca or other Amazon sites in other countries, and you can earn 20% points back if you purchase them in points through the Aeroplan eBoutique from July 8 to July 17, 2024 (registration required).

Also, if you’re an Aeroplan Elite Member, you’ll earn two extra points for every dollar you spend in the Aeroplan eStore.

Another option is to buy your Amazon gift cards in grocery stores (IGA, Sobeys, Métro, Super C) with one of these two cards: the American Express Cobalt^® Card and the Scotiabank Gold American Express^® Card. You’ll earn 5 points for every dollar spent on Amazon gift cards, or the equivalent of 5%. And if you use your Scotiabank Gold American Express^® Card at IGA/Sobeys grocery stores, you’ll even earn 6 points per dollar!

Use online shopping portals like Rakuten to collect points and cashback. If you are not yet registered with Rakuten, get a $30 credit via our referral link below:

Finally, if you collect AIR MILES miles, the Airmileshops.ca portal offers 1 mile per $20 at the regular rate, with a promotion giving 50 bonus miles for those who sign up for Amazon Music Unlimited.

Amazon’s Prime Day deals are a great way to save money on everyday products like travel essentials. Good organization will allow you to make the most of it before Black Friday arrives!
