TORONTO, Dec. 12, 2017 /CNW/ - Today, American Express announces the launch of Cobalt Perks, an offers and experiences program for American Express CobaltTM Cardmembers.  These special offers are the first of many for a new style of credit card designed specifically to meet the needs of millennial consumers in Canada and to simply reward Cardmembers for being themselves.

The ongoing Cobalt Perks program begins with three introductory offers, featuring partners like H&M and Toronto Pearson International Airport Duty Free as well as a supercharged points accelerator on eats and drinks at both grocery and dining locations leading up to the holiday season.  Now more than ever, the Cobalt Card provides even greater opportunities to snag the perfect outfit, try out the hottest new restaurant or travel like a pro:

OFFER 1: H&M GARMENT EXCHANGE PROGRAM

  • Offer date: Now until January 31st, 2018

OFFER 2: 10X THE POINTS ON DINING AND GROCERY
