Before you buy

Four things to check

  1. 01

    Have an award in mind

    Find the seat or the room first, then buy only what that award needs.

  2. 02

    Purchases are final

    No refunds, and the points can't be sent back. Buy for a trip, not just in case.

  3. 03

    Currency and tax

    Most programs charge in US dollars, so a foreign transaction fee applies unless your card waives it (Aeroplan charges Canadians in Canadian dollars). Hilton adds GST/HST for Canadians.

  4. 04

    Caps and posting times

    Every program caps purchases a year, and points can take a few days to post. Bought points don't count toward status.
