The new BMO VIPorter Mastercard credit card will accelerate the ability to earn VIPorter points and redeem for flights through everyday purchases.

The new card gives VIPorter members a chance to build points quickly for redemption across Porter’s expanding North American network. Points can also be redeemed on Porter’s growing list of global airline partners.

“Porter’s elevated economy experience has set the standard for economy travel in North America. With the expansion of our network, we are also building a loyalty program that’s as distinct and value-focused as Porter’s flying experience,” said Kevin Jackson, president, Porter Airlines.

“The launch of the BMO VIPorter Mastercard suite is the first of many loyalty enhancements that will create substantial value and recognition for our VIPorter members. BMO and Mastercard are the perfect partners for Porter because each brand is aligned around providing a high level of service and value to our customers.”

Highlights of Porter’s VIPorter program include:

  • All members receive 100% of their eligible points for every flight purchased, including Basic economy fares, exclusive of taxes and fees. VIPorter is the only airline loyalty program in Canada to give members full value for every dollar they spend on flights
  • Accelerated earning and additional travel benefits for VIPorter Avid Travellers
  • Redeem for any seat across Porter’s expanding network, including points-only and cash-plus-points redemption options, with no blackout dates
  • Earn confirmed PorterReserve flight certificates, starting at $3,000 in annual spend
  • Head Start allows members to carry over up to $3,000 in Qualifying Spend into the next year to accelerate their Avid Traveller benefits

A pre-launch waitlist is open for VIPorter members, with a special offer available if eligibility requirements are met. Full card features will be released at a later date. More information is available at www.flyporter.com.
