Air Canada Aeroplan’s latest buy points promotion provides members with the opportunity to receive up to a 90% bonus when buying points by June 4, 2025. The tiered bonus offer will vary by member, personally I received up to a maximum of 75% bonus miles
The up to 90% bonus offer:
Receive up to a 90% bonus when you buy 10,000 or more Aeroplan points. Offer valid to June 4, 25. Click here to buy points.
The 90% bonus points offer:
• Between 4,000 and 25,000 Aeroplan points will earn 40% bonus Aeroplan points (the “Bonus Points”);
• Between 30,000 and 65,000 Aeroplan points will earn 60% Bonus Points; and
• 70,000 or more Aeroplan points will earn 90% Bonus Points.
The 75% bonus points offer:
• Between 3,000 and 10,000 Aeroplan points will earn 35% bonus Aeroplan points (the “Bonus Points”);
• Between 15,000 and 25,000 Aeroplan points will earn 50% Bonus Points; and
• 30,000 or more Aeroplan points will earn 75% Bonus Points.
Also note the T&Cs state the offer ends June 4 whereas the graphic on the page states June 5 – so if you are going to buy points do so by June 4th just to be safe.
Does it make sense to buy points?
When you buy points with a 90% bonus your cost on each point is 1.84 cents (C$) each before taxes (1.93-2.12 cents with taxes, depending on which province you live in).
And with a 75% bonus, that is less of course, with an example here where it is 2 cents per point (2.1 to 2.3 with taxes)
We value Aeroplan points at a minimum of 1.5 cents each but the program does provide the ability to get much more than that. If you find the right award flights at the right time you can easily redeem points with values well over 2 or 3 cents per point.

Wrapping it up
The up to 90% bonus for buying Air Canada Aeroplan points is one of the better offers we have seen in quite a few months but still falls short of some of the other past offers where we have seen 100% or higher bonuses. If you have an immediate redemption to use these points on where you will get more than 1.93 to 2.12 cents per point in value (if you have the 90% bonus) then by all means buy the points to give yourself a discount on you travels but otherwise wait until the next promotion.
