There are so many credit card options in
Canada that it can get really confusing for the consumer. At Rewards
Canada we do our best to help guide you to the right card for you with
our Guide to choosing a travel rewards credit card and features like our Top Travel Rewards Credit Card
rankings. We tell you to join multiple loyalty programs and earn more
miles or points by tying in a credit card that co-brands with that
program. In Canada we have some very large loyalty programs that fall
under the coalition program banner and all Canadians should join at
least one of these programs if not all of them. What is a coalition
program? It is a program where you have lots of ways to earn potins or
miles and lots of ways to burn them. That means many partners to earn
points or miles at and a large varied reward catalog where you can use
those points or miles. For many Canadians joining a coalition program
makes a lot of sense since you can earn miles or points pretty much
everday. Although we didn’t invent the coalition program, Canada sure
did develop them in to what they are today globally thanks to AIR MILES
and Aeroplan. AIR MILES made the coalition program and loyalty programs
in general main stage for Canadians and made them part of our everyday
lives. No longer was it a world for frequent travellers or high
spenders, loyalty was now the game for all merchants and all consumers.
