With BMO looking to purchase Air Miles, American Express has discontinued its American Express Air Miles co-branded credit cards. It was really only a matter of time it seems.
All the links are broken now on their website are broken now. If you are an existing cardholders, it looks like you can continue to use your card. But I would expect those to be discontinued in the feature too.
March 10, 2023 was a crazy day for Air Miles collectors. At the beginning of the day, it was announced that LoyaltyOne Co. (which offers Air Miles) had gone into bankruptcy protection. The fear was that member miles would be lost forever!
Later in the day, BMO Financial Group signed a deal to acquire the Air Miles rewards program from LoyaltyOne Co.. As a result, below is a screenshot what we might currently see on the Air Miles website:
Air Miles is offering up to 10x the bonus miles offer between June 10, 2022 right up to Father’s Day on June 19, 2022 on their shopping portal: Air Miles Shops.
Not all stores are participating in the bonus offers. Some have 2x or 3x bonuses. Otherwise, the more significant ones are the 10x and 5x ones
