Where is Ampli? It’s been nearly a year since RBC and WestJet sent out a hyped press release
about a joint loyalty platform they were making called Ampli. Per the release it was
due to “debut later this year” which meant sometime in 2018. Well it
appears it is almost here, apparently the app is being beta tested at
this time and according to their website should be in full release this
summer. It does appear they have gone away from being points based per
the press release and have moved to a cash back reward. Now it really reminds me of
Drop Rewards and app based loyalty programs out there. Find out more here.
AeroMexico is offering a 30% discount on Club
Premier award tickets between Mexico City and Calgary. It is only on
their Mexican site in Spanish but getting the terms and conditions
translated I couldn’t find any terms stating it is only for Mexican
members or that travel must originate in Mexico City. Wouldn’t hurt to
try calling Club Premier if you are a memebr looking to redeem your
points on their flights out of YYC to see if you can get the 30%
discount. Find out more here (in Spanish)
Have you been considering getting the MBNA Rewards World Elite or Platinum Plus credit card? Wait until next week if you have been.
