As of May 7, 2020, Aeroplan will officially start selling miles directly to consumers. Aeroplan will have a limit of 250,000 miles per transaction, and 500,000 miles per account per calendar year. The cost will be $0.03 CAD per mile before any bonuses.

To celebrate this mileage sale functionality going live, Aeroplan will offer an incredible promotion between 10AM ET on May 7 and 11:59PM ET on May 13:

For the first 10 million Aeroplan miles sold, members will receive a 115% bonus (equivalent to $0.014 CAD per mile plus sales tax, $0.01 USD per mile)

For the next 100 million Aeroplan miles sold, members will receive a 90% bonus (equivalent to $0.016 CAD per mile plus sales tax, $0.011 USD per mile)

All Aeroplan miles sold after that will receive a 65% bonus (equivalent to $0.018 CAD per mile plus sales tax, $0.013 USD per mile)

The 250,000 mile per transaction limit doesn’t apply to the bonus (so only the base miles count)

Transactions made with US based credit cards with a US billing address are not subject to sales tax

That 10M cap will be hit pretty quickly.

+1
but the next level is also good, with a much higher limit.

Very unlikely that these bought miles will count toward status although I'd love to be wrong.
