November 16 Update: Two big AIR MILES earning events coming soon, Radisson Rewards extends inactive points accounts & Swoop expands in Edmonton

Rewards Canada Team Uncategorized

Here’s your Rewards Canada Daily update! Your daily dose (or near
daily dose) of loyalty program, credit card and travel news, bonuses,
deals and more. This update is brought to you by the HSBC World Elite Mastercard which
is currently offering a welcome bonus of up to 100,000 bonus points
worth $500, has no foreign transaction fees and no annual fee in the
first year! 

 
AIR MILES Shops Early Black Friday Event will start
on November 19! You can earn 15x the Miles sitewide! Makes me wonder
what the actual Black Friday offer will be? 20x miles? I hope that’s the
case!

 
As well AIR MILES Bonus Boom Boost launches on November 18 – this time you can earn up to 800 bonus AIR MILES Reward Miles and be entered to win up to 1 Million Miles. You’ll earn 400 miles if you use 4 different Bonus Boom offers, 600 when you use 6 different Bonus Boom offers or 800 when you use 8 different Bonus Boom offers. We’ll follow up with a separate post on the 18th once the event is live!

Several times over the past few weeks we’ve brought you the details
of some hotel loyalty programs extending points expiry but were warning
about World of Hyatt and Radisson Rewards Americas as
they had not announced any plans to do so. In fact with Radisson they
sent an email to me saying my points will be expiring at the end of the
year several weeks ago but just last week another email came in
with the following:

In October you received an email from us regarding your points
expiring at the end of December. As a thank you for being a valuable
member of Radisson Rewards Americas we have added 100 points to your
account to keep your point balance active. Your points will no longer
expire on December 31, 2021, and will be active for another 24 months.

Thank you to Radisson Rewards Americas for this move! Now I don’t
have to convert points or figure out some other way to redeem them in
the next month. When I logged into my account I did see my balance is 100 points higher however the 100
points doesn’t actually show in my transaction list.
