Is AIR MILES still the current Canadian programme name?

BMO moved the programme to Blue Rewards on June 2, 2026. The transition information says existing cards and member numbers stay the same, but the current app and programme branding are Blue Rewards.

Does Blue Rewards support Apple Wallet?

Yes. BMO's transition support says to open the Blue Rewards app, tap the card icon and tap Add to Wallet. The old AIR MILES digital Wallet card also continues to work.

What happens to my old AIR MILES Wallet pass?

BMO says the old AIR MILES digital Wallet card still works. To show the current Blue Rewards look, add the refreshed card from the Blue Rewards app and check it before removing the old pass.

Can NeatPass convert the Blue Rewards app?

Only a stable card barcode is suitable as a static source. Do not convert changing app codes, payment tokens, offers, account-only screens or contactless/NFC credentials.

Does NeatPass replace Blue Rewards?

No. It can show the same stable barcode data in Wallet, but Blue Rewards remains necessary for points, offers, account actions and the official digital pass.

AIR MILES to Blue Rewards: Add the card to Apple Wallet

AIR MILES has become Blue Rewards in Canada. The transition took effect on June 2, 2026: existing cards and member numbers stayed the same, and BMO says the old AIR MILES digital Wallet card still works. The current Blue Rewards app can add the refreshed digital card to Apple Wallet.

Blue Rewards has a native Apple Wallet path

BMO's transition support says your AIR MILES card and member number continue to work under Blue Rewards. For the digital card, open the Blue Rewards app, tap the card icon, and tap Add to Wallet. That creates the current Blue Rewards look in Apple Wallet.

The Blue Rewards app remains the source for points, offers, balance and transaction history, receipts, rewards and account settings. Keep it installed even after adding the pass; Wallet is the quick way to show the card, not a replacement for the live programme.

Apple's general adding to Apple Wallet guide explains the final save step. If the Add to Wallet control is missing, use the current Blue Rewards support centre, not an old AIR MILES walkthrough.

Keep the same card and member number

BMO says the existing AIR MILES card and member number continue through the move to Blue Rewards.

Refresh the digital card

In Blue Rewards, open the card view and tap Add to Wallet to get the current Blue Rewards version in Apple Wallet.

Keep account features in Blue Rewards

The app remains responsible for points, offers, balances, receipts, rewards and account settings.

Remove the old pass only after checking the new one

BMO provides a remove-pass step for the old AIR MILES card. Confirm the refreshed pass first, then remove the duplicate if you want to.

The current official route is the Blue Rewards app. The old AIR MILES digital Wallet card still works, but use Add to Wallet to show the refreshed Blue Rewards version.

If you need a barcode-only fallback

The official Blue Rewards pass should be your first choice. If you cannot use that path and have a physical card or issuer-provided image with a stable barcode, NeatPass can create an independent Wallet pass from the same barcode data. It is a fallback for scanning, not a way to reproduce Blue Rewards.

Keep changing and contactless credentials in Blue Rewards

NeatPass supports the loyalty-card barcode formats and several import methods. Import only a stable, visible barcode. Do not convert a code that refreshes, a payment token, an offer, an account-only screen, or a contactless/NFC credential. A barcode pass does not become an NFC pass.

Keep a stable loyalty barcode ready

NeatPass makes it easy to convert any ticket, pass, or loyalty card to Apple Wallet.

Label a fallback pass clearly

If you make a fallback pass, give it a clear name and use the pass customisation guide if you want a different appearance. A custom label does not change the Blue Rewards account or keep its points and offers in sync.

Create the optional fallback pass

Try the official pass first

Open Blue Rewards, tap the card icon and tap Add to Wallet. Check that the member number is the one you expect. If the official pass is available, use it.

Use a stable barcode only as a fallback

Choose a physical card or issuer-provided image that remains unchanged. Never capture a code that refreshes, represents payment, or is itself an account-authentication credential.

Import and name it

Let NeatPass read the complete barcode and name the pass clearly, such as Blue Rewards card, so it is not confused with an old AIR MILES pass. NeatPass preserves the barcode data from your source.

Add and test the pass

Finish Apple's Wallet flow and test the barcode with the retailer before relying on it. Keep Blue Rewards available for points, offers, account actions and official pass updates.

A fallback pass is only the card identifier

A static fallback can reduce friction at a scan, but it cannot carry Blue Rewards transition or account data. Use the app whenever the transaction depends on a live account, current offer or contactless credential.

Quick access at checkout

Open Wallet to present the stable barcode without waiting for the loyalty app to load.

Keep the same identifier

NeatPass keeps the barcode data from your source instead of inventing another loyalty identifier.

Ready with weak reception

The saved barcode is on the iPhone, which helps when mobile data is slow in a shop.

Keep the fallback separate

A name such as Blue Rewards card helps you distinguish the fallback from an official or old AIR MILES pass.

Use the official Blue Rewards pass first

Treat AIR MILES as a transition search term, then open Blue Rewards and add the refreshed digital card to Apple Wallet. Existing AIR MILES cards and member numbers continue, while the app keeps the live programme available.

Use NeatPass only when the official path is unavailable and you can verify a stable barcode. It preserves the same barcode data for scanning, but it is not connected to Blue Rewards points, offers, account actions or contactless credentials.
