Accuracy is important to us so this article has gone through a thorough 3-stage review process and fact-checked by our team.

Winter has set in, and that means you’re paying more for home heating. Not to mention the holiday season just finished up where you (probably) spent quite a bit.

So wouldn’t some extra savings be nice right now?

Well, you’re in luck…

From now until March 31, 2020, any BMO AIR MILES cardholders will save 3 cents per litre at Shell stations.

One thing to mention – Shell abruptly cancelled a similar gas savings promotion last fall which left a bad taste in a lot of our mouths. That being said, this exact BMO offer ran without any problems during the summer, so it’s hard to say if you should worry or not.

If anything, it means you may want to take advantage of this as soon as you can – just in case it does end early.

Existing BMO AIR MILES cardholders

Are you an existing cardholder? You may have seen an email similar to this:

BMO Shell savings offer
To get this offer, check your email, and activate the offer using the link provided.

Didn’t receive the email? Simply head to this page and enter your collector number to activate the offer for your card.

You have until March 5th to activate it and once you do, you’ll enjoy 3 cents per litre gas savings at Shell until March 31, 2020. Just be sure to swipe both your BMO card and your collector card to get your savings.

New BMO cardholders

Don’t have a BMO AIR MILES Mastercard? Unfortunately, we can’t verify if this offer will be available for you.

The terms only mention 1 vague sentence about this: “Cardholders must have an existing BMO AIR MILES® credit card to receive the offer.” But we don’t know if that means getting the card during the next few months makes you ineligible…

If you do end up getting a new BMO card that earns AIR MILES, after you activate it, head to the promo page and enter in your collector number and see if you’ll be able to enjoy the savings with your new card. It’s worth a shot.

I also didn't receive $.03 off my fuel. I used my BMO Mastercard and my Airmiles card? The link in this article doesn't work?? I believe I activated my offer.

Why world elite master card credit score estimates 560-659 (fair) and air miles mC 660-724 (good). That doesn’t make any sense what’s so ever. Elite cards requires good- excellent.

Our algorithm actually determines our recommended credit scores, and has determined that it's easier to get approved for the World Elite AIR MILES card instead of the no fee card. There's a lot that goes into determining our recommended credit scores, but that's not to say someone would get approved if they don't fall into that. It all depends on what's contained in a credit report, beyond just the score number.

Hi Tom, There are 2 things to check: Did you activate the offer (you can do so through the link on our site), and did you also enter in your AIR MILES collector number on payment? These 2 things need to be done before you receive the 3 cent per litre savings. If you did both these things, we would suggest calling BMO on the back of your card to get this resolved.
