WestJet and RBC have extended the current increased welcome bonus of 350 WestJet dollars on the WestJet RBC World Elite Mastercard
to November 11th. That’s only a 12 day extension from the original October
31 end date. We don’t have any details yet of what will come on November
12. As always it is a gamble – do you go for it now and secure a really
good welcome bonus or wait with the hope of something better coming
along. Learn more about the current offer here.
In a surprising move when the credit card market is heating up here in Canada Scotia has lowered the welcome bonus for the Scotiabank Passport Visa Infinite Card
by 5,000 points. Right now when you apply for the card you’ll get
20,000 bonus points when you spend $1,000 on the card within the first
three months and an additional 10,000 points if you can spend $40,000 in
the first year. Learn more here.
In light of last week’s news that Capital One will be ending their contract with Costco and Hudson’s Bay we have updated our Top 5 Mastercard Cards to use at Costco
feature. And this isn’t because of Capital One (their Costco card
never ranked in the Top 5) but we added the HSBC World Elite Mastercard
to the Top 5 and removed the WestJet RBC World Elite Mastercard. While
both effectively earn 1.5% at Costco the HSBC card is more flexible in
terms of travel redemption options. Check out the feature here.
There’s a little less than a week left to get the TD Aeroplan Visa Infinite Card
with its 25,000 bonus Aeroplan Miles offer and first year annual fee
waiver. The question we have posed for more than a month now is whether
you should get the card now or wait for the new version of the card that
will come out on November 8. All I can say is that if you travel alone
and want the most miles possible – apply for it now. You can apply for the card here.
