  • For online, visit bluerewards.ca > log in to your account > go to your profile and navigate to the “in-store redemption lock” section
  • In the app go to account, scroll to "Manage Balance" and select "in-store redemption lock", toggle the "lock in-store redemption" button

 

You can still earn Points when in-store redemption is activated, but don't forget to unlock before redeeming in-store!
