Where can I get the TimCard®?

Why should I register my TimCard®?
By registering the TimCard® online, you can access several additional features of the TimCard® program such as protecting the balance on your card from loss and theft, reloading your card with a credit card and viewing your most recent account activity.
To register your TimCard® you must activate it first. You can activate your TimCard® at any participating Tim Hortons restaurant by deciding on the dollar amount you wish to be loaded on to the TimCard® and asking a Team Member to load it.
Why do I need to scratch off the panel on the back of my TimCard®?
By scratching off the coating on the panel, you will reveal a PIN or personal identification number. This PIN number is an added security function and is necessary to check your balance and register your card on our website. If your Card does not have a PIN # or the panel has already been scratched off, please call 1-866-TIMCARD (846-2273).
How can I protect myself from fraud when purchasing a TimCard®?
It is very important that you purchase your TimCard® directly from a Team Member at any participating Tim Hortons Restaurant across Canada or the U.S., through our online website at timhortons.com/timcard or from Tim Hortons head office directly.
We do not authorize any online restaurants or individuals to sell the TimCard® on our behalf. We discourage you from purchasing TimCards® from these unauthorized sources. Tim Hortons is not responsible for any issues you experience with TimCards® purchased from unauthorized sources.
How do I use my TimCard®?
Just ask a team member for a TimCard® and decide on the amount you wish to be loaded onto the card. Once your card is loaded, you are able to swipe, tap or scan your TimCard® to pay for your purchases both in-restaurant and at the drive thru at participating locations. Each time you use the TimCard®, the amount of your purchase will be deducted from the balance remaining and your new balance will be displayed on the card reader or your TimmyMe Mobile App. You may also ask the team member to print of a receipt.
How do I report a lost or stolen TimCard®?
If your TimCard® has been registered and is lost or stolen, please call 1-866-TIMCARD (846-2273) immediately. You will need to provide your card number and answer questions concerning recent activity on your account. Upon verification, we can freeze and transfer your remaining balance. Please note that the remaining balance of an unregistered card cannot be replaced even if we are notified of its loss or theft. At all times, please treat your card like cash.

Funds will automatically be added to your TimCard® each time your balance gets below your pre-set level or at a specified frequency. Your credit card will then be billed for the amount. Please note an auto reload transaction can take up to 48 hours for your card to reload. Please consider this when setting your Auto-Reload preferences.
