We’re back! After almost two weeks off Rewards Canada is back to work!
We hope that you all had amazing holidays and a great New Year!
This is first update of 2014 and of course the big news is from
Aeroplan which you can find in two separate posts from earlier today:
Aeroplan Changes went into effect yesterday (January 1)
TD Canada Trust Aeroplan Cards officially released
There is other news and of course bonuses to share so don’t stop reading the daily update just yet!
News, Tips & Tricks
Once again in lieu of sending Christmas Gift Baskets to some of our clients Rewards Canada made a $500 donation to the Alberta Children’s Hospital Foundation.
Over the break we updated the Rewards Canada guide to
which airlines and hotels you can earn miles/points with credit cards
here in Canada. The chart was not updated for quite some time which
meant some cards were not included and others changed so this is all
caught up now. Also we standardized the way the points earning is listed
on the chart, now you can see what you will earn based on $1 in
spending or conversion of 1 point. You can check out the new chart here.
We also updated our “Travel Anywhere” Credit Card comparison chart which
shows how much you have to spend on select cards to get to various
levels of ailrine ticket values. All cards that were on the chart
previously were updated to the latest offerings and we added the CUETS
and mbna World Elite cards. Check it out here.
And the final update to Rewards Canada over the break was the update of our BMO Rewards World Elite MasterCard review to reflect the changes that took place on September 1st. You can read the updated review here.
Although Boxing Day has passed there are some Boxing Day offers still available like 5x AIR MILES Rewards Miles on qualifying purchases of $20 or more via airmilesshops.ca! This offer is good until Jan 7.
