Concept preview. SwomiBuzz is not open yet, and every reward and balance on this site is an example.

Rewards: one price ladder, every reward priced in points

Every reward on SwomiBuzz will sit on one published price ladder. A card says what it costs in points, so there is never a sum to do, and the same points work with every vendor.

The price ladder

A few round rungs, and every reward sits on one of them. Most rewards sit on the low rungs, because most people would rather have a small reward soon than a big one some day: in Bond's 2026 Canadian study, 60% said they prefer small or medium rewards.⁠[1]

The ladder shown here is an example. The real one will be published before SwomiBuzz opens. After that it changes only with 60 to 90 days' notice and in proportion, and never cuts the points members already hold: the standard Québec's loyalty rules set.⁠[2]

Find what you can claim

Filters will do the obvious things: what you can claim now, what costs under 1,000 points, each kind of reward, and, only if you turn location on, what is near you.

On this preview the filters jump to the matching section.

Price in points
A big number from the ladder. Never a price in money.
Claim, or points to go
Claim when you have the points; otherwise a bar and the number still to collect.
The vendor and the end date
On a live card: who provides it, and when the offer ends. Your points don't end. Example cards leave the vendor out, because no vendor is listed yet.
The community line
What members who share an interest are claiming, shown first.
Why am I seeing this?
One line with the reason, on every suggestion.
Reviews and questions
On a live card: honest reviews from members who claimed it, and answers to questions.

Claiming takes one tap

Select Claim on a reward you have the points for. The code or pass appears at once, your new balance shows right away, and the reward is listed under My Points. Ease matters: in Bond's 2026 Canadian study, members rated the importance of ease when receiving and claiming rewards at 73%.⁠[1]

If anything about your account would stop a claim, SwomiBuzz tells you before you choose, never at the till.

Try the Claim button on any example card on this page. It shows what would happen; nothing is claimed.
