Skip and WestJet, both homegrown Canadian brands, are enhancing what loyalty points can do with the launch of a new linked-loyalty partnership. Canadians can now treat their WestJet points as Skip currency, earning – and notably, redeeming – them on Skip.

Canadians can link their WestJet Reward and Skip accounts, to earn WestJet points on qualifying Skip orders. These points can be used for flights and vacations with WestJet or redeemed for Skip Credits that can be used for everyday essentials such as grocery, pharmacy, retail and restaurant delivery. This collaboration brings an innovative layer of connectivity between travel and delivery, allowing members to easily earn and redeem meaningful rewards through everyday moments.

Rewards that deliver real value

Upon linking, members receive an immediate bonus of 500 WestJet points (five-dollar value) and six months of Skip+ free ($60 value), unlocking zero-dollar delivery fees from thousands of restaurants, retailers and more. From there, members can participate in weekly "WestJet Wednesday" Skip Challenges, earning WestJet points on eligible orders.

• From Skip: Members sign in to their Skip account, select 'link now,' and authenticate with WestJet.
• From WestJet: Members sign in to their WestJet Rewards account, select 'link now' with Skip, and follow the guided steps to authenticate their Skip account.

The announcement comes on the heels of WestJet Rewards' recent relaunch, designed to give members more ways, every day, to earn and redeem points. This partnership also complements Skip, where members will also gain exclusive access to annual WestJet seat sales, offering even greater value and making it easier to turn rewards into real-life experiences. Joining Skip+ is simple. Customers can subscribe through the Skip app to unlock free delivery, exclusive offers and partner benefits.

Canadians can begin earning and redeeming now by linking their Skip and WestJet accounts – either directly through the Skip and WestJet apps, or by visiting the landing page here.
