Earlier this week, I published my detailed review of the TD Rewards loyalty program. In it, I touched on Expedia for TD, which is the backbone of the travel component of TD Rewards. As such, I thought it would be a good idea to do a deeper dive, and show you everything that’s available. I’ll begin by taking you through Expedia for TD, and then get into the different TD Rewards credit cards that are available.
Expedia for TD – More Flexible Travel Booking
If you’re familiar with Expedia.ca, Expedia for TD is essentially the same thing, but it’s designed to work with the TD Rewards points system. Expedia for TD customers get the same prices, and all of the available travel options offered by Expedia.ca. The Expedia advantage has always been the value and flexibility it offers travellers, and the same goes for Expedia for TD, making TD Rewards an ideal travel rewards program for anyone who is already using Expedia.

How Do Cash Back Rewards Work on a Credit Card?
It’s hard to say no to getting money back. When it comes as an added perk to your credit card, you figure there might be a catch — right?

Typically, cards don’t offer cash back on cash advances or balance transfers.
