CAA Membership

CAA Membership is a service Membership that provides roadside assistance, towing coverage, travel savings, shopping and dining discounts through the CAA Rewards benefits, and access to member-exclusive services across Canada and the United States. 

The right CAA Membership depends on your lifestyle, driving habits, travel frequency, towing needs, and preferred level of roadside coverage. CAA Classic suits local driving, CAA Plus adds extended towing and travel benefits, and CAA Premier provides the highest level of coverage and service. CAA Everyday provides access to savings and benefits without roadside assistance. 

CAA Plus is better for road trips because it includes longer towing distances, enhanced travel benefits, and additional coverage that supports longer-distance travel. 

Upgrading from CAA Classic to CAA Plus can be completed online through My Account, a CAA Store, or calling 1-800-705-1803. CAA Plus is worth the cost for drivers who travel longer distances, commute frequently, or want increased towing coverage.

CAA does not offer a dedicated senior Membership. All CAA Memberships provide access to a wide range of Member savings and discounts. Available discounts vary by partner and offer. Eligible discounts can be redeemed by presenting a valid CAA Membership card or by using designated online discount codes when available.

CAA Membership benefits include Member savings on eligible insurance products, opportunities to save at over 126,000 partner locations worldwide, including access to discounts at participating dining locations, as well as on fuel, shopping, travel, and more. The value of the savings or discounts vary.

The easiest way to renew a CAA Membership online and keep benefits active is through a CAA My Account, where Membership renewal can be completed securely before the expiry date.

CAA Classic is often the best CAA Membership for city drivers because local driving generally requires shorter towing coverage and essential roadside assistance services.

CAA Plus is often the best CAA Membership for suburban drivers because commuting and regional travel can increase the need for extended towing coverage. 

CAA Premier is often the best CAA Membership for rural or remote areas because longer distances between destinations may increase the need for higher towing limits. 

Yes. Drivers who travel long distances often benefit from CAA Plus or CAA Premier because higher Membership levels provide increased towing coverage and additional travel benefits. 

The difference in towing distance varies by Membership plan. Everyday Members receive up to one (1) roadside assistance call per Membership year towards a bicycle tow up to 10km. Classic Members receive up to four (4) roadside assistance calls per Membership year (these can be used for tows up to 10km). Plus Members receive up to four (4) roadside assistance calls per Membership year (these can be used for tows up to 200km). Premier Members receive up to five (5) roadside assistance calls per Membership year (these can be used for tows up to 200km and one call up to 320km).  

CAA Plus is often the best CAA Membership for frequent commuters because daily driving increases the likelihood of needing roadside assistance and extended towing coverage. 

CAA Plus or CAA Premier is typically the best CAA Membership for road trips and travel because both plans offer enhanced coverage for longer journeys.

CAA Classic may be sufficient for drivers who rarely drive long distances and primarily travel close to home. Alternatively, CAA Everyday gives you access to CAA savings and benefits minus the roadside assistance service.

CAA Plus or CAA Premier is often the best choice for families with multiple drivers because broader coverage can help support more frequent vehicle use and longer travel distances. CAA coverage follows the Member, not the vehicle. Each family member who requires CAA coverage must have a Membership of their own, purchased at an additional cost.

CAA Plus or CAA Premier is often the best CAA Membership for older vehicles or used cars because extended towing coverage can provide additional peace of mind in the event of a breakdown. 

CAA Classic often provides the best value for occasional drivers because essential roadside assistance and local towing coverage are included at the lowest Membership level. 

Yes. CAA Membership can be worth it for city driving because Membership includes more than roadside assistance. In addition to services such as towing, battery boosts, fuel delivery, and lockout assistance for Classic, Plus and Premier Members, all Members can enjoy savings on travel, shopping, dining, entertainment, insurance, and everyday purchases through the CAA Rewards® program. 

Rural driving can increase the need for higher towing limits and enhanced roadside coverage, which may make CAA Plus or CAA Premier a better choice when looking for roadside assistance coverage.

Yes. A CAA Membership can be switched to a different Membership level when driving habits, travel patterns, or coverage needs change. Applicable Membership terms apply. 

Choosing the wrong CAA Membership plan may result in having more or less coverage than needed. A Membership plan can be reviewed and adjusted to better match current driving and travel requirements.
