BMO and Best Buy are making student life easier with these 5 tech rewards

The post-secondary grind is a unique phase of life that needs to be experienced to be fully understood. Being a student comes with its own unique needs and challenges, which is why having the right bank is especially important. It’s also why BMO’s new first-of-its-kind partnership with Best Buy is changing the way students experience rewards.

Eligible students who open and fund a BMO Student Chequing Account can now receive up to a $200 tech reward from Best Buy. This gives students more flexibility and choice to select tech, and rewards from top brands that they actually want. Here are some top picks.

Nespresso Vertuo Next Premium Coffee & Espresso Machine 

Best Buy

First things first: coffee. From early morning classes to late-night study sessions, your life is about to become so much easier with your own coffee machine. Nespresso uses capsules to create barista-quality beverages from your own kitchen (or dorm room), and the milk frother and five sizes ensure you end up with a latte you love. You’ll also save so much money making coffee at home instead of buying it every day.

Google Fitbit Air Fitness Tracker

Perfect for anyone making use of the campus gym, the Google Fitbit Air Screenless fitness tracker offers around-the-clock tracking and personalized coaching to help you reach your full potential.

Dyson HushJet™ Mini Cool Handheld Fan 

Unfortunately, your dorm probably won’t have AC. This is extra unfortunate the higher you are from ground level. This Dyson personal fan is a simple and effective way to cool off quickly, with a powerful yet quiet performance. Its discreet design and portable size also make it great for taking on-the-go, so whether it’s crowded lecture halls or sweltering football games, you can have your new secret weapon ready to go.

Sony Over-Ear Noise Cancelling Bluetooth Headphones 

Few things are more frustrating than an environment that’s not nearly as quiet as you want it to be. Whether it’s noisy roommates, an overstimulating bus ride to campus, or your library neighbours don’t know how to whisper, you can tune out distractions with a good pair of noise-cancelling headphones.

JBL Charge 6 Waterproof Bluetooth Wireless Speaker

This little speaker packs a big punch! From low-fi study beats to pre-game party playlists, listen to music the way it was meant to be heard. Plus, the waterproof capabilities mean you can even take it in the shower. Sorry, neighbours — it’s time for a personal concert where you’re the rockstar.
