The Ultimate Life Hack: AAA Membership

Life has a way of throwing curveballs that can completely knock us off our feet at times. But fortunately, AAA offers a smart way to handle some of those surprises that drain your time, money, and energy. The ultimate life hack, AAA membership is packed discounts and a wealth of other benefits that increase savings, reduce stress, and help with everything from fixing a flat tire to planning the perfect vacation to insuring your home, auto, and life. Here are five valuable ways that a AAA membership protects your wallet, your time, and your investments.

AAA Roadside Assistance and car care

The top reason people join AAA is for AAA roadside assistance. That means you’re protected on the road 24/7/365—whether you’re the driver of your own vehicle or a passenger in someone else’s vehicle. If your car battery suddenly dies, you get a flat tire, you lock your keys in your car, or you run out of gas on the road, AAA help is just a call or click away.

Along with the comfort of knowing that roadside help is always nearby, AAA members receive free vehicle maintenance inspections standard with all services, repairs covered by a 24-month/24,000-mile warranty, 10 percent off labor costs, and discounts on oil changes, tire purchases, and more. These can also be carried out by expert technicians at your nearest AAA-owned and -operated repair shop or at any one of more than 7,000 AAA Approved Auto Repair shops across North America. Because when it comes to life hacks, savings, convenience, and safety reign supreme.

AAA Travel planning assistance

Whether you’re planning a long-awaited dream vacation or a last-minute getaway, AAA members can tap the expertise of a AAA Travel Advisor to arrange everything from flights and hotels to tours and cruises—right down to the last detail, including travel documents and travel insurance so that you can be sure your trip goes off without a hitch.

Along with expert planning assistance, AAA Travel offers meaningful savings and perks for AAA members through its network of preferred partners, including tour providers, cruise lines, rental car companies, and hotels and resorts. Members can also enjoy exclusive discounts on an array of luggage and other travel essentials online from The Travelers’ Store or in person at a AAA Store near you so that you can embark on your next journey in style and on budget.

Home, auto, and life insurance coverage

Researching insurance companies and their many offerings can be overwhelming, especially when you and your family members have a variety of needs. Insurance agents with AAA can do all the legwork for you by researching the ins and outs of coverages in practically every insurance category, including auto, homeowner’s, renter’s, condo, landlord, and life. They’ll walk you step by step through the process to help you secure the best coverage at the best price for you. You can also receive a quick online quote to get started at your convenience.

Restaurant and retail discounts

Whether you’re shopping for pleasure or out of necessity, one thing’s for certain: We all appreciate a good deal. But who has time to comb through websites and emails searching for the best coupon codes? That’s where AAA comes in.

AAA has partnered with major restaurants and retailers to offer exclusive discounts for AAA members. These range from discounts on dining and floral arrangements to electronics and gym memberships. In fact, nearly any type of product or service you rely on during the day can be found in the portfolio of AAA discounts. No cartwheels. No gimmicks. Just great savings with the quick click of a mouse.

AAA credit cards with cash back and rewards

Credit cards are a must-have financial tool in today’s digital economy—and luckily for AAA members, AAA offers not one but two credit cards that pack a powerful financial punch for purchases.

The AAA Daily Advantage Visa Signature credit card essentially pays you for your everyday purchases with 5 percent cash back at the grocery store; 3 percent cash back on gas and EV charging, wholesale clubs, streaming services, pharmacy, and AAA purchases; and 1 percent cash back on everything else.

Travel a lot? The AAA Travel Advantage Visa Signature credit card is tailormade for you with 5 percent cash back on gas and electric-vehicle charging; 3 percent cash back on grocery store, restaurants, travel, and AAA purchases; and 1 percent cash back on all other purchases.

Plus, both cards provide a $100 statement credit when you spend $1,000 within the first 90 days of opening your account, and there are no annual fees or foreign transaction fees.

AAA also helps members protect their finances with identity-theft monitoring services through ProtectMyID from Experian. This indispensable benefit is free with every AAA membership. Simply by enrolling, AAA members can protect their identity from hackers and thieves.

These are just some of the many ways that AAA diligently works to deliver safety, savings, and convenience for its members, on and off the road, 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year.
