Aeroplan is selling points with a bonus of up to 90% through October 29, 2026. The offer is targeted, so the bonus you see in your account may differ from the one described here. The 90% bonus starts at 80,000 points, where a point costs about 1.38 U.S. cents.
Deal Details
- Up to a 90% bonus on purchased Aeroplan points, through October 29, 2026.
- Targeted: different members can see different offers. Log in to see yours.
- Tiers as reported: the 90% bonus starts at 80,000 points. The lower tiers pay 50% from 5,000 points and 75% from 30,000 points, and reports differ on where each tier ends. One version gives no bonus on 1,000 to 4,000 points, 50% on 5,000 to 29,000 points and 75% on 30,000 to 79,000 points. Another gives 50% on 5,000 to 25,000 points and 75% on 30,000 to 70,000 points. If you're buying near a boundary, check the purchase screen.
- Limit: up to 500,000 points per transaction before the bonus.
- Top-tier price: 500,000 points cost CA$18,750 and return 950,000, about 1.38 U.S. cents per point.
How to Take Advantage
- Price the award you want first, and work out how many points you're short.
- Log in to Aeroplan and open the buy points page to see which tier boundaries apply to you.
- Buy only what the booking needs, ideally at or above the 80,000-point tier if your offer reaches 90%.
- Choose your card with care. Aeroplan point purchases are processed by Points.com, so card issuers don't treat them as an airfare purchase.
Why This Deal Matters
Buying points pays off when the award costs far less than the cash fare, such as a long-haul business class seat on a partner airline. The price is billed in Canadian dollars, so a card with no foreign transaction fees avoids a second cost.
The previous bonus sale, which ended September 25, 2026, went up to 100%, so this one isn't the program's best. If you'd rather earn points than buy them, our guide to earning Aeroplan points in the U.S. covers transfers and the Aeroplan Credit Card.
Who Should Buy Aeroplan Points
This is for members who have a specific award priced, are short on points and can buy 80,000 or more. Skip it if you're buying on speculation, since points sit in your account until you book. The offer ends October 29, 2026.
