The Student Price Card, also known as SPC Card, is a student loyalty discount program in Canada and the USA, offering discounts and deals on items such as fashion, food, shoes, and travel and more.
Students show their SPC Card at participating locations to receive instant savings every time they shop. Offers vary by participating partner locations.
The program's membership include high school and college students throughout Canada. The program has a reported 1,100,000 members and 120 participating retail chains.
The SPC Card is a fee-based loyalty program, costing $9.00 CAD plus tax for 12 months. The SPC Card is valid from August 1 until July 31 the following year. Each year a new SPC Card must be purchased. The expiry date is printed on the front of the SPC Card and does not change regardless of the date of purchase.
SPC Card also has a MasterCard with Bank of Montreal. Students can double their benefits with a BMO SPC MasterCard. Cardholders receive SPC Card discounts plus their choice of Air Miles reward miles or cash back rewards without paying an annual fee.
SPC Card also launched its loyalty program to high school and college students in Illinois in August 2011. The US program currently has 17 participating retail chains.
The term SPC Card is an example of RAS Syndrome (Student Price Card Card).
Famous quotes containing the words student, price and/or card:
“Beauty, like all other qualities presented to human experience, is relative; and the definition of it becomes unmeaning and useless in proportion to its abstractness. To define beauty not in the most abstract, but in the most concrete terms possible, not to find a universal formula for it, but the formula which expresses most adequately this or that special manifestation of it, is the aim of the true student of aesthetics.”
—Walter Pater (1839–1894)
“No performance is worth loss of geniality. ‘Tis a cruel price we pay for certain fancy goods called fine arts and philosophy.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“In the game of “Whist for two,” usually called “Correspondence,” the lady plays what card she likes: the gentleman simply follows suit. If she leads with “Queen of Diamonds,” however, he may, if he likes, offer the “Ace of Hearts”: and, if she plays “Queen of Hearts,” and he happens to have no Heart left, he usually plays “Knave of Clubs.””
—Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)
