Our partner businesses reward Keyholders with exclusive benefits whenever doing business with them.

We keep adding more locations throughout the GTA every month so the Key just gets better and better.

WE’RE A COUPLE AND NOT SURE IF WE SHOULD GET 1 OR 2 KEYS?
We find people want their own Key as the perks are great and it looks beautiful on your keychain so it’s unlikely you will want to share it. However, one Key is enough depending on what you want to use the Key for. Most VIP perks, for restaurants and spas, are for the Keyholder-only. However, nightlife VIP perks usually include a plus 1 guest and event/entertainment ticket partners give you savings on ALL tickets bought in-advance as a Keyholder. But again, you will like the allure of the Key on your keychain and that it’s a conversation starter!

SO YOU GOT THE KEY TO THE CITY – NOW WHAT!?
______________________________________________
ARE THERE GOING TO BE MORE BUSINESSES ADDED?
Absolutely. We curate everything to match our demographic of Keyholders and what people want. We also present new finds and hidden gems that we know Keyholders will love. We continue to source and add the best of Toronto and Montreal monthly, so your Key just gets better!
We also listen to feedback from our Keyholders so if there is a place in your neighbourhood or something you think should be added, send us an email at info@torontocitykey.com!

HOW DOES THE SUBSCRIPTION WORK?
There’s a reason over 92% of our Keyholders renew their subscriptions for a new Key year-over-year! Our Keyholders love the ongoing VIP benefits, as a subscriber, across Toronto and Montreal. Each month, we add more of the best partners and VIP benefits to the Key program. And every year, we also expand to include more cities which gives Toronto Keyholders even more reach for VIP benefits whenever traveling. As a subscriber, you keep your annual rate that you paid, grandfathered annually for life. That means, the new Key for 2024 and beyond would be renewed annually for the same rate you paid for the previous year Key. The rate will never increase, no matter how many more partners and VIP benefits or how many cities we add for you to enjoy as a Keyholder subscriber.
____________________________________________________
CAN I CANCEL THE SUBSCRIPTION AFTER ORDERING OR IN THE FUTURE?
Absolutely – if you wish to just order the Toronto Key for one year only (for gifting or any reason), just login through your account, email us (info@torontocitykey.com) or open a LIVE CHAT request to let us know you want the subscription cancelled. You will still enjoy all VIP benefits for the rest of the year but your Key will not renew with your grandfathered rate for future year Keys. But we are pretty sure you will want to renew when you enjoy the VIP benefits and special rate you keep despite planned increases in price for new Keyholders next year.
______________________________________________
DO YOU HAVE AN APP TO HELP NAVIGATE THE VIP PERKS?
Absolutely! The Key always has to be shown (which you will love doing) but we do have a mobile app that is useful after you purchase your Key as it provides a guide to all perk locations and will alert you whenever you near participating partners businesses – with a reminder! The limited-numbered Toronto Key unlocks the very best of Toronto and Montreal all year.
