When we’re on the road, preparation is always essential. You never know when car issues will appear and put a dent in your day. However, with CAA, you can always make sure that you are covered in the event of an emergency. CAA Memberships come in three different tiers. Learning about each tier’s benefits can ensure you purchase the one that best suits your needs. This is our guide on CAA Membership levels and what they each provide.
What is CAA?
Before discussing the different membership levels CAA offers, we should define CAA. CAA, also known as the Canadian Automobile Association, is a roadside service company that has been around for over 115 years. It is Canada’s largest not-for-profit automobile association. Currently, CAA has over two million members in South Central Ontario and 200,000 active members in Manitoba.
CAA has branched out into different fields. Recently, they have provided home and auto insurance, travel services and insurance. Their mission statement is to always make their Members’ days better. This is done by helping Canadians stay safe, mobile, and protected at all times, whether on the road, at home, or abroad.

Other members in your household
If you live with your family or a partner, you can access some excellent savings by adding a family member to your CAA membership! This will lower the cost of your existing membership level. This means all drivers in your household can save on everyday purchases and will always be kept safe with CAA roadside assistance. A maximum of six associates may be listed on one membership account in addition to the primary CAA membership holder.
It is important to keep in mind that savings will differ greatly depending on how many people are added to a membership, as well as the membership level. All members must live at the same address as the primary CAA membership holder for this to be applicable.
