Aeroplan and Goldmoney Partnership - Cryptocurrency Hi...below is a post from the Aimia/Aeroplan bullboard.
Interesting opportunity for Goldmoney!
Aeroplan has 5 million members that would use this new Aeroplan Cryptocurrency.
====================================
Aeroplan 2.0 & CryptoCurrency
Is Aeroplan considering a cryptocurrency as part of its Aeroplan 2.0?
A cryptocurrency would be a great additional payment method for the Aeroplan eStore, as well as a payment method for the Aeroplan travel services (airfares, hotels etc.).
So, when purchasing Aeroplan goods and travel services, the Aeroplan member could pay using:
- Aeroplan Miles/Points
- Cash (i.e Visa, Mastercard, Amex)
- Cryptocurrency
Also, perhaps the Aeroplan member can pay using a combination of these payment methods.
For example, if the Aeroplan does not have enough miles/points for a purchase, the balance can be paid using cash (Visa/Mastercard/Amex), or the new Aeroplan cryptocurrency, or a combination of all the payment methods offered.
Furthermore, Aeroplan members could buy the Aeroplan 2.0 cryptocurrency using miles/points or cash (Visa, Mastercard, Amex).
A suitable potential partner for Aeroplan to develop and launch the Aeroplan 2.0 cryptocurrency would be GoldMoney.
GoldMoney is a fully regulated Canadian cryptocurrency company (based in Toronto), founded by Soros Brothers Investment.

Possible names for this Aeroplan 2.0 cryptocurrency could be:
- AeroCoin
- AeroCash
- AeroDollar
- AeroGold
- Etc.
Initially, the Aeroplan 2.0 cryptocurrency would be launched within the Aimia/Aeroplan eco-system.
Eventually, the Aeroplan 2.0 cryptocurrency could be a general payment method in the global world of consumer (B2C) and business (B2B) commerce.
