Final week: Starbucks offers Aeroplan contest entries and 25% bonus Stars
Through Sept. 28, linked Aeroplan and Starbucks Rewards members can earn contest entries and bonus Stars on points conversions. Compare the coffee reward with your travel plans before transferring.
Starbucks’ Sip-Tember to Remember promotion is in its final week, with a chance to win 100,000 Aeroplan points and a conversion bonus available through September 28. Canadian members who want to participate should link their Aeroplan and Starbucks Rewards accounts and check which purchases qualify before spending.
For September 22–28, converting Aeroplan points to Starbucks Stars earns one contest entry and 25% bonus Stars. The promotion’s example exchanges 800 Aeroplan points for 200 Stars, with another 50 Stars added for a total of 250. Travellers saving Aeroplan points for flights should weigh that use against the coffee reward rather than convert solely for a contest entry.
The broader September 1–28 promotion awards weekly contest entries on eligible purchases made with linked accounts, alongside offers for bonus Aeroplan points and Stars. Members who complete all offers across Weeks 1–4 receive 100 bonus Aeroplan points; completing only the final week’s offer does not satisfy that requirement.
Members without a Starbucks Rewards account can create one during linking and earn 500 bonus Aeroplan points after their first purchase within seven days. Winners will be notified by email, with the grand-prize notification expected from game@win.starbucks.com on or around October 20, 2026.
