Two new Cobalt Multipliers, and tips to earn more points at two other merchants

Cobalt Multipliers

We have some more Cobalt multiplier updates for you today! Thanks to David who provided the two locations in British Columbia. Next up thank you to Ed who found a trick to earn 5x points with Nespresso online. Based on past contributions from our community if you pay with your Cobalt Card directly with Nespresso you will only earn 1x points however Ed let us know if you pay via PayPal (linked to your Cobalt of course) you’ll earn 5x points. And, thanks to Chip for letting us know that if you gas up at a Shell gas station in Nova Scotia that has a Needs Convenience store you’ll earn 5x points for that gas purchase if you pay inside. This is the same methodology you can apply to most 7-Eleven, Circle K etc. stations when you pay inside.

  • Bruce’s Country Market | Maple Ridge British Columbia 5x points
  • Pender Chocolates | Pender Island British Columbia 5x points
  • Nespresso Canada | Canada Wide Online paid thru PayPal 5x points
  • Shell (when paying inside of a Needs Convenience store) | Province Wide Nova Scotia 5x points

Here is last week’s This Week in RWRDS if you have not seen it yet. I had some techincal issues so this one was prerecorded and to be honest with you I may move to this format for the time being and revisit the live option down to the road.
