TD has decided to extend the very valuable welcome bonus for their TD® Aeroplan® Visa Infinite* Card! When
you apply for and are approved for the card anytime between now and March 6, 2022 you can receive up to 25,000 Aeroplan points, a bonus
buddy pass and the first year annual fee rebated! This offer is not available for residents of Quebec. For Quebec residents, please click here.
Once approved you’ll get
10,000 points right off the bat when you make your first purchase on the
card then if you spend $1,000 on the card in the first 90 days of
having it you’ll receive an additional 15,000 points plus the Buddy Pass
(more on the pass below!) On top of that you’ll receive an annual fee
rebate on the primary card ($139 per year) plus a rebate for up to 3 additional cards ($75 per card per year). All told the points and the buddy pass
are
worth no less than $675 but for
most people the value should be much
higher. We come to that valuation with a minimum value of 1.5 cents per
Aeroplan point and $300 for the Buddy Pass but you should be able to redeem at rates above that mark.
You may recall back in November 2020 we explained and evaluated the Air Canada Buddy Pass
so I won’t go into as much detail about it in this post but in that
post we provided examples of how the Buddy Pass could save anywhere from $400 to well over $2,000. Plus if you are
a family of four or more you and your partner could each grab your own
card (not primary + additional rather two primary accounts) so that you
would have two Buddy Passes to use meaning an immediate doubling of your
savings. The Buddy Pass is good for travel in Canada, the U.S.,
Hawaii and Mexico and must be redeemed within one year of it being
issued but that travel can take place right to the end of Air Canada’s
flight schedule which means you actually have close to two years to set
foot on the plane utilizing your buddy pass.
There’s one more limited time offer that comes with the card right
now and that’s a bonus earn rate for Starbucks purchases. You will earn
50% Bonus Aeroplan points for each $1.00 in Purchases charged to
the Account at participating Starbucks® locations (the “Starbucks Bonus
Aeroplan Point”). All reloads on the Starbucks mobile app and in-store
purchases at corporate-owned stores are eligible. In-store purchases at
licensed stores are excluded from this offer. This offer runs until February 14, 2022.
Now that we’ve covered the welcome offer let’s look at what the card offers as it’s standard earn rates and benefits:
The card itself earns 1.5 Aeroplan points per dollar spent with Air
Canada (including Air Canada Vacations) It also earns 1.5 Aeroplan points for grocery and
gas station purchases and all other purchases earn 1 Aeroplan point per dollar spent on the card.

- Hotel/Motel Burglary Insurance coverage up to $2,500 per occurrence for

What
also should be noted is that benefits are shared with secondary (aka
supplementary/additional) cardholders. That means those who have cards
under the primary cardholder will also benefit from items like the first
checked bag free and the NEXUS benefit.
