TORONTO, July 24, 2023 /CNW/ - Starting today, Canadians can apply for the new Tims Credit Card from Tims Financial and earn Tims Rewards Points everywhere they shop!2
The Tims Credit Card is a Mastercard®, powered by Neo Financial™, and Canadians can apply for the card now through the Tim Hortons app. Cardholders earn 5 points per dollar on groceries, gas, EV charging, taxi, rideshare and transit purchases, and 15 points per dollar when they use the card on eligible purchases at a Tim Hortons restaurant and scan for Tims Rewards2. This means faster access to more free coffee, beverages and food at Tim Hortons restaurants! Plus, the credit card comes with no annual fee1.
For a limited time, Canadians who apply for a new Tims Credit Card are eligible to receive a welcome offer of up to 5,000 Tims Rewards Points. They can get 2,000 Tims Rewards Points on their first eligible purchase made within 30 days of being approved, and when they spend over $200 a month on qualifying purchases in each of the following three months, they can get 1,000 Tims Rewards Points for each of those months.
"The Tims Credit Card offers Canadians a chance to earn even more Tim Rewards Points everywhere they shop, which means more Points towards their favourite menu items at Tim Hortons for free," said Markus Sturm, Senior Vice President of Financial Services and Digital at Tim Hortons.
"Let's say I spend roughly $80 at the gas station and use my Tims Credit Card to pay. I'll earn 400 Tims Rewards Points for that purchase, and that's enough Points to pick up a free coffee from Tims right after I fill up! The Tims Credit Card unlocks so much value from your everyday spending so you can earn free rewards from Tim Hortons faster. We even have a calculator available on our website to help estimate just how fast it is to earn Points every month."
A secured version of the Tims Credit Card for Canadian residents who have limited or no credit history – like students and newcomers – is also available now. Cardholders can build their credit history while also earning Tims Rewards Points all without paying an annual fee1.
Both versions of the Tims Credit Card provide additional, free benefits. Extended Warranty doubles the term of the manufacturer's warranty for up to one extra year and Purchase Protection offers insurance against loss, theft and damage on items purchased with the Tims Credit Card3.
A virtual Tims Credit Card can be added to your Apple Wallet or Google Wallet so you can start using it right away. Plus, adding a Tims Credit Card as the default payment method for Scan & Pay in the Tim Hortons app is a great way to maximize Tims Rewards Points and save time when making eligible purchases at Tims restaurants.
The Tims Credit Card is from Tims Financial, a new division of Tim Hortons established to give Canadians convenient and powerful financial tools to manage their everyday finances. Both versions of the Tims Credit Cards can be applied for, approved, and managed entirely through the Tim Hortons app4.
