Canadian Tire Corporation, Limited (TSX:CTC) (TSX:CTC.a) today launched its innovative new mobile payments app, the Canadian Tire mPay & Play.

Exclusive to Canadian Tire Options MasterCard® members, the app goes beyond just mobile payments by offering customers bonus rewards, cardmember offers, and quick and easy account servicing through a best-in-class user interface.

"At Canadian Tire, it is our unrelenting desire to exceed our customers' expectations with an unforgettable shopping experience," said Eugene Roman, Chief Technology Officer, Canadian Tire Corporation. "The Canadian Tire mPay & Play app is the only payment solution in Canada to deliver payment capabilities, gamification features, special offers and rewards to customers, while allowing them to track their banking information and e-Canadian Tire 'Money' rewards."

"As one of Canada's oldest and most beloved brands, we knew that the app needed to be more than just a payments app; it needed to engage our customers and strengthen their affinity to Canadian Tire," said Mary Turner, President, Canadian Tire Financial Services. "With the help of our partners from MasterCard, we were able to design Canadian Tire mPay & Play with our customers in mind."
