The Toronto Automobile Dealers Association (TADA) today announced it has entered into a multi-year agreement with the Futura Loyalty Group, (TSX VENTURE: FUT) enabling TADA's 340 dealer-members to offer Aeroplan Miles to consumers on the purchase or service of vehicles.

"We couldn't be more excited to be working with an association of the TADA's stature, making the Aeroplan Program available to automotive dealers across the GTA," said Mark Farrell, President & CEO, Futura Loyalty Group. "The fit is excellent given Aeroplan's status as Canada's premiere coalition loyalty program and TADA's reputation as a 102 year old organization representing the interests of over 340 dealers of all automotive makes and models in the Toronto area. This synergy provides us with a unique opportunity to drive value for Aeroplan Members who will be able to earn Aeroplan Miles at participating dealerships, and for the dealers who wish to attract Aeroplan Members to their dealerships."

Beginning in early April 2011, participating TADA dealers will have the option of leveraging the Aeroplan program through select facets of their operations, including vehicle sales, automotive service, parts and accessories sales, and collision repair. Futura Loyalty, in its capacity as a value-added agent for Aeroplan, will work with all participating dealers to structure optimal consumer offers, train dealer staff on program execution "best practices" and enable the crediting of Aeroplan Miles to consumers through the use of the web-based Aeroplan Merchant Tool, developed by Futura Loyalty for Aeroplan.

--  A minimum of 1 Aeroplan Mile per $2 spent on all service, parts and
    labour of pre-tax transaction amount;
--  A minimum of 1 Aeroplan Mile per $2 spent on all tires and wheels of

--  A minimum of 1 Aeroplan Mile per $2 spent on collision and auto body
