The advertised value of 7 cents per litre is based on the following:
You must be enrolled in RBC Online Banking or the RBC Mobile app in order to link your RBC Card to your Petro-Points card. Card linking may take up to 2 business days to process before savings and bonus points can be applied to purchases. A Linked RBC Card means an RBC Card linked to a Petro-Points Account. Your Linked RBC Card acts as your Petro-Points card. You will automatically earn Petro-Points when you pay for qualifying purchases with your Linked RBC card at Petro-Canada Locations and you do not need to swipe your Petro-Points card before you pay. You can redeem your Petro-Points at Petro-Canada using your Linked RBC Card.
Each time you use your Linked RBC Card to purchase any grade of gasoline, or diesel, at a Petro-Canada Location, you will save three cents ($0.03) per litre at the time of the transaction.
Each time you use your linked RBC Card to pay for qualifying purchases at a Petro-Canada location, you will also earn a bonus of 20% more Petro-Points than you usually earn. This means that for every litre of fuel purchased, a linked RBC card can earn 1.2 cents in redeemable Petro-Points value (based on a redemption value of 1,000 Petro-Points = $1). Further details on terms and conditions are available at www.petro-canada.ca/en/personal/terms-conditions#petropoints. Petro-Points are not awarded on tobacco products, vaping products, gift cards, transit tickets and taxes on non-petroleum purchases.
Only certain RBC cards earn Avion points on net purchases. Each time you pay for purchases at a Petro-Canada location using your linked RBC Card that earns Avion points on net purchases, you will earn a bonus of 20% more Avion points than you normally earn for every $1 in purchases. This means that for every litre of fuel purchased, a linked RBC Card that earns Avion Rewards on net purchases can earn up to 2.8 cents of redeemable Avion Rewards value, calculated based on the average fuel cost of $1.65/litre and the average travel redemption value across all types of available travel redemptions options in accordance with the Avion Rewards Terms and Conditions at avionrewards.com/terms-and-conditions. Actual realized value may be lower with some redemption options.
Please allow up to ninety (90) days from the date the transaction is posted on your credit card statement for the bonus points to be deposited into Avion Rewards account.
