Up to 5,000 Tims Rewards Points 
No annual fee The Tims® Credit Card is one of two cards with no annual fees offered by Tims Financial, the financial services division of Tim Hortons. The card is issued in collaboration with Neo Financial and Mastercard.
The card not only rewards coffee runs at Tim Hortons, but it also offers accelerated earning on groceries, gas, EV charging, transit, taxis, and rideshares. In all, it’s a card geared for everyday use for those deeply loyal to Tim Hortons.
Bonuses & Fees
As a welcome bonus, the Tims® Credit Card offers up to 5,000 Tims Rewards Points, broken down as follows:
- 2,000 Tims Rewards Points upon making your purchase within the first 30 days of approval
- 1,000 Tims Rewards Points upon spending $200 in the first month
- 1,000 Tims Rewards Points upon spending $200 in the second month
- 1,000 Tims Rewards Points upon spending $200 in the third month
The card has no annual fee, making it a good choice to keep open as a free primary or backup credit card, all while supporting the longevity of your credit history.
Earning Rewards
The Tims® Credit Card has the following earning structure:
- 15 Tims Rewards Points per dollar spent when you scan for Tims Rewards
- 5 Tims Rewards Points per dollar spent on qualifying grocery purchases
- 5 Tims Rewards Points per dollar spent on qualifying gas and EV charging
- 5 Tims Rewards Points per dollar spent on qualifying transit, taxi, and rideshares
- 1 Tims Rewards Point per $2 spent on all other qualifying purchases
Note that there’s an annual cap of $20,000 in purchases on accelerated earn categories, after which all purchases will earn 1 Tim Rewards Point per $2 spent. The annual limit is counted per calendar year, regardless of when the card is applied for and activated.
To earn accelerated rewards on your Tim Hortons purchases, you must use your Tims® Credit Card to pay and also scan your Tims Rewards physical card or app barcode.
That’s because of the 15 Tims Rewards Points in total that you’ll earn per dollar spent at Tim Hortons, 10 Points are earned by scanning your Tims Rewards card or barcode alone. The remaining 5 Points are earned by using your Tims® Credit Card.
To make your transaction more seamless, you may link your Tims® Credit Card to the Tim Hortons app and use the “Scan to Pay” feature.
Redeeming Rewards
After you’ve earned them, Tims Rewards Points may be redeemed towards products at Tim Hortons at the following rates:
- Classic Donuts, Specialty Donuts, Hashbrowns, and Cookies: 300 points
- Brewed Coffee, Tea, Dream Donuts™, Dream Cookies™, Bagels, and Baked Goods: 400 points
- Hot Chocolate, French Vanilla, Iced Coffee and Wedges: 600 points

- Farmer’s Wrap, BELT®, Lunch Sandwiches and Chili: 1,300 points
- Loaded Bowls & Wraps: 1,800 points
However, as a special feature of the Tims® Credit Card, you may use your Tims Rewards Points as statement credits against eligible purchases you’ve made.
The Tims Rewards Points-to-statement-credit conversion is as follows:
When used on statement credits, each Tim Rewards Point yields a value of 0.4 cent per point.
Note that you may only apply for one statement credit per seven days, up to a maximum of $45 each time. Say you apply for a $30 statement credit on a Monday, the next time you’ll be able to apply for a statement credit will be the following Monday.
Moreover, a statement credit must be applied against an eligible purchase, and it must not exceed the purchase being applied for. For example, you may not apply a $45 statement credit on a $40 purchase.
Perks & Benefits
As a card with no annual fee, the Tim Credit Card understandably has limited perks and benefits.
Among the benefits cardholders may receive are:
- $25 off orders of $75 or more with Instacart
- Free three-month subscription to Crave streaming service
In addition, cardholders get extra “rolls” on Tim Hortons’s annual “Roll Up to Win” promotion. The usual prizes include cash, cars, vacations, and gift cards.
Insurance Coverage
The Tims® Credit Card offers limited insurance coverage on retail purchases but not on travel.
Its extended warranty coverage lengthens the manufacturer’s warranty for most items purchased up to one year. Repairs, replacements, or reimbursements are limited to $1,000 maximum per incident.
Meanwhile, its purchase protection coverage allows items purchased with the card to be repaired, replaced, or reimbursed up to $1,000 per incident. The protection is valid for 90 days after purchase.
