Aeroplan members can now earn points on Uber Eats grocery, retail orders

Aeoplan and Uber Canada are offering shoppers the chance to earn points on grocery and retail deliveries with Uber Eats.

Starting May 3, Aeroplan members can earn one Aeroplan point per $1 spent on eligible grocery and retail orders made via the Uber Eats app, with non minimum spend required.

As part of the launch, shoppers can earn five times the points on their next grocery or retail order through to May 31.

Members will also earn an additional 250 bonus Aeroplan points when completing an eligible ride, a restaurant food delivery order of $40 or more and an eligible order from the grocery or retail section in the same calendar month, every month.

When members open their first Uber Eats account and complete their first eligible order, they can earn 1,000 bonus Aeroplan points. 

"Together, Air Canada and Uber have again raised the bar for loyalty programs for Canadians across the country," said Klaas Knieriem, general manager of new verticals for Uber Eats Canada, in a statement. "Uber Eats has grown quickly from a platform to get your favourite meals delivered to a one-stop-shop for anything you need. Now, each time members order groceries or products from their favourite retailer through Uber Eats, they can get closer to their next exciting reward or adventure – from grocery list to bucket list."
