Everyone has to start somewhere. If you’re not a member yet, you can register for an account online here. Once you’re in, you can start collecting points at Loblaws, NoFrills, Superstore, Shoppers Drug Mart, and by fueling up at Esso and Mobil locations. Yup, gas too. 

2. Tap into the app.

It’s 2022 baby, there’s an app for everything — including your precious points. Head to your Apple or Android app store and download the PC Optimum™ app to your phone. It’s a game changer if you’re a points collector, and it’s the key to unlocking rewards you can only dream of. 

3. Gorgeous, gorgeous people get access to gorgeous, gorgeous exclusive offers.

The PC Optimum™ app isn’t just another dust collector in your phone (how many weather apps do you really need?). Instead, it’ll notify you of exclusive deals at your local stores and serve you up personalized points offers that refresh every Thursday at midnight. Load up your offers, and you'll score major points on the products you buy the most. 

4. Save your offers for a rainy day (or a rainy week).

Don’t have a chance to snag all your points offers? Or maybe you’re all good on toilet paper for the week? No worries, you can “Save for next week” and carry over up to four offers every week. Personalized offers you can use on your own time, schedule and budget? Sign us up. 

5. Ready, set, mark your calendar for Points Days.

An entire week dedicated to points? We'll see you there. From January 27th to February 2nd, PC Optimum™ users will be able to earn even more points on their favourite items. You can find special offers in your PC Optimum™ app as well as in participating retailers. 

6. Pool your points.

In the app, you can set up a Household, meaning you and up to 5 other people can pool your points! Pick your jaw up off the floor, and start collecting points with your nearest and dearest. Talk about maximum point potential. 

7. Set someone to “earn only” in your Household.

Prevent outliers in your Household from going rogue and cashing in everyone’s hard-earned points by changing their status to “earn only.” That allows them to keep earning, but stops them from redeeming. It’s called setting boundaries, people!

8. Collect points to give back to the community.

Most of us use our points to either grab essentials, or treat ourselves to something special. But using the app, you can also donate your points to one of three charities —  President’s Choice® Children’s Charity, Black Business and Professional Association, and LOVE YOU by Shoppers Drug Mart™. The only thing better than collecting points? Spreading the joy. 

9. Never forget to load your PC Optimum™ offers.

No longer miss out on points! Not only is the PC Optimum™  app a great place to find deals, but you can also directly scan your card from your phone. Every scan counts, and thankfully the app makes it easy to do just that. 

Start stacking those points in 2022 by downloading the PC Optimum™ app, featuring exclusive deals and point offers just for you.
