Avion Rewards Pay will enable you to use your Avion Rewards points to make purchases in-store from retailers that accept Visa contactless (tap) payments or online where Visa is accepted. You can access Avion Rewards Pay through the RBC Launch app and provision Avion Rewards Pay card into your Apple Wallet to be used for contactless in-store payments. Alternatively, card details including card number, CVV and expiry date can be accessed on the RBC Launch app for online purchase transactions. This card cannot be stored as card on file.

The total daily transaction limit for purchases on Avion Rewards Pay will be $1000. Purchases on this card do not follow the same cardholder benefits from your linked rewards card (i.e. device protection plan).
If you return a purchase that you made using Avion Rewards Pay, the cash refunded back to you will be available to you from “Cash from Refunds” on your card.
