With most of the best travel rewards programs, redeeming your points for a gift card or statement credit is one of the worst things you can do since they offer low value compared to travel rewards. Generally speaking (and depending on the program), using your points for anything besides travel will devalue your points by [...]
The CIBC Aventura Visa Infinite is one of the most underrated credit cards even though it's on my list of the best travel credit cards in Canada. For whatever reason, CIBC isn't known for its credit cards, but let me tell you, the CIBC Aventura Visa Infinite is definitely worth your consideration. The card has [...]
Airlines, hotel chains and most loyalty programs have an option to buy points or miles from them, but is it worth it? Buying miles and/or points is usually not a good deal in the vast majority of situations. Since loyalty programs are an important source of revenue and profit, companies aren’t going to sell you [...]
Canadian Tire is easily one of the most recognized retailers in Canada. They've been around for almost 100 years and throughout the years, they've reinvented themselves a few times. These changes have mostly been cosmetic as everyone know what they'll get at Canadian Tire, but a couple of years ago they decided to change up [...]
I always tell people that having travel insurance is a must whenever you travel. Not only should you have travel medical, but you should also have travel insurance that covers things such as trip cancellation, flight delay, baggage delay, car rental theft, etc. Having travel insurance covers you in the event that you need medical [...]

Normally, I wouldn’t get too excited about this milestone, but WestJet Rewards is one of the best travel rewards programs in Canada (if not the world in my opinion). The reason why I think it’s so good is that [...]
Out of all the Aeroplan credit cards that TD offers, the one that gets the least attention is the TD Aeroplan Visa Platinum Card. This shouldn’t be a huge surprise since it’s an entry-level credit card. Banks typically promote cards where there’s a higher minimum income requirement since it’s presumed those people have more money [...]
There are many different Aeroplan credit cards on the market, but TD is the official partner of Aeroplan. Truth be told, it doesn’t matter who’s the official partner since consumers should only care about how specific cards benefit them. TD has three different Aeroplan cards, but the most popular one is the TD Aeroplan Visa [...]
When Air Canada acquired Aeroplan many people were excited. Yes, there would be both positive and negative changes to the program, but it’s nice to see Air Canada owning its own loyalty program again. Regardless of how Aeroplan evolves, people still want to know what the best Aeroplan credit card is? Since TD Bank is [...]
