If you have an irewards membership and you would like to switch to plum rewards, you will start earning plum points on purchases instead of receiving your irewards discount.

You can switch to plum rewards from irewards at any time, however we recommend that you continue to use your irewards membership until it expires since the irewards membership fee is non-refundable.

If you are an irewards member and you decide to switch to plum rewards, you will earn plum points on purchases instead of receiving your irewards discount.

You can choose to be a member of either plum rewards or irewards, but not both. Our store staff can help you choose what program is right for you.

If you decide to switch to the irewards program, you will start receiving your irewards discount on purchases, and all plum points associated with your plum rewards account will be forfeited. If you would like to return to plum rewards in the future, a new account will be created.

Our store staff can help you choose the program that best suits you based on your past shopping behaviour. Visit us in store and a store associate at cash will be ready to help you decide.
