How Keep Rewards Work
To redeem your rewards, you need to have a Keep Banking account activated. You can learn more in this article How to Manage Banking and Open a Multi-Currency Account.
Rewards are redeemed at a dollar-for-dollar value when applied to other Keep services, such as paying off your card balance or applying them toward statement extensions and capital.
It takes 120 days for your rewards to become available for redemption, and they remain redeemable for up to 540 days (18 months) after the transaction date when the rewards are earned.
You can earn points on both domestic and international purchases:
- Domestic Purchases: 1 CAD spent = 1 point earned
- International Purchases: 1 USD spent = 4 points earned
Please note: Currently, rewards can be redeemed for cashback at a rate of $0.37 per 100 points.
For example, if you have 10,500 points, you would divide by 100 and multiply by 0.37, resulting in $38.85 CAD in real dollar value.
