Footnotes
1. Account must be in good standing. AIR MILES Reward Miles will be earned on the amount of all purchases, less credits and returns. Funds advances, interest, balance transfers, Amex Cheques, annual fees (if applicable), other fees and charges for travellers cheques and foreign currencies are not purchases and do not qualify for Reward Miles. Accelerated earn rate is available at Partners that are American Express merchants. Visit the Eligible Partner List at americanexpress.ca/airmilessponsors for details. List is subject to change without notice.
2. Earn Rate (American Express AIR MILES Reserve Credit Card) - You can earn AIR MILES Reward Miles for eligible retail purchases at American Express merchants in Canada as follows:
Merchants are typically assigned codes and categorized based on what they sell. Earn rate of 1 Reward Mile for every $15 applies if the merchant code is not in an eligible category, or is not made directly from the provider of the good or service, e.g. through a third party or by using a mobile device (e.g. smart phone) with an attached card reader. Provided your account is in good standing, Reward Miles can be earned on eligible purchases less returns and other credits. Funds advances, interest, fees, balance transfers, Amex cheques and charges for travellers cheques and foreign currencies are not purchases and do not earn Reward Miles.
3. Earn Rate (American Express AIR MILES Platinum Credit Card) - You can earn AIR MILES Reward Miles for eligible consumer retail purchases at American Express merchants in Canada as follows:
− stand-alone restaurants, quick service restaurants, coffee shops and drinking establishments in Canada,
− stand-alone grocery stores in Canada,
− delivery of food and groceries in Canada as a primary business,
− stand-alone automobile gasoline stations in Canada,
− local commuter transportation in Canada including subway, streetcar, taxi, limousine and ride sharing services, up to a combined maximum of $30,000 in net purchases posted to your account annually on all these categories. Once the maximum is reached, you will no longer earn at 1 Mile for every $5 regardless of credits, returns and adjustments subsequently posted to your account. Earn 1 Mile for every $10 in eligible purchases thereafter. Calculation resets to zero each year on the Cardmembership anniversary date. Purchases at merchants where these categories are not their primary business such as general merchandise retailers do not qualify.
Merchants are typically assigned codes and categorized based on what they sell. Earn rate of 1 Mile for every $10 applies when the merchant code is not in an eligible category, using a payment account or service of a third party, a card reader attached to a mobile phone or online retailer that sells goods of other merchants or the merchant category is otherwise not identified.
Provided your account is in good standing, Miles can be earned on eligible purchases less returns and other credits. All deductions for returns, credits and adjustments will be calculated at the earn rate in effect at the time of the return, credit or adjustment. This means that the miles deducted from your account may be different from the amount originally earned. Funds advances, interest, fees, balance transfers, Amex cheques and charges for travellers cheques and foreign currencies are not purchases and do not earn Miles.
4.
