Amex Shop Small promotion returns for March – earn $5 credits or 300 bonus Membership Rewards points + MORE Mar 3rd

A new offer for the TD Aeroplan Visa Infinite card was released today and it is almost the same as the offer we have seen for the past three months. The only change for this iteration of the offer is the addition of a first year free offer for the first additional/supplementary card. This is in addition to the primary card being first year free as well. The bonus is the same at 30,000 Aeroplan Miles with $3,000 in spending however the earning of the 30,000 has changed slightly. Now what you’ll want to know is how do you earn the full 30,000 Aeroplan Mile welcome bonus. When you receive the card you will be awarded with 15,000 Aeroplan miles on the first purchase made. Then you will receive 5,000 additional Aeroplan miles when you spend $1,000 in each of the first three months you have the card. That is, if you spend $1,000 on the card in month one you’ll earn 5,000 Aeroplan miles. This bonus is over and above the 1 to 1.5 Aeroplan Miles per dollar spent on the card for purchases…

The Scotiabank Passport Visa Infinite Card sees the return of its limited increased sign up bonus today. Right now when you apply for the card you’ll earn 30,000 points when you spend $1,000 in the first three months of having the card.  This is 5,000 more points than the standard offer of 25,000 points that the card normally comes with.The current offer is being promoted as up to 40,000 points in the first year but that includes the standard extra bonus of 10,000 points if you spend $40,000 or more on the card annually. So technically the sign up bonus is only 30,000 points but that alone is worth $300 towards any travel. No matter what, it is nice to see this small increase on the card that we ranked as the number 2 travel points credit card with annual fee in our 20 credit card rankings. This is a well rounded card whose main benefit that everyone likes on the card is the no foreign transaction fees! Here are the main highlights of this card:No FX mark-up on foreign transactions made on purchases abroad…

Another hotel chain has come out with a great loyalty move in light of the Coronavirus scare. Best Western Rewards just announced that all of its members globally will maintain their current status through January 31, 2022 without needing to fulfill the necessary qualifications. In addition, BWR® members who suffered a downgrade at the end of 2019, as a result of restricted travel, will be leveled-up to their previous tier and will maintain that status through January 31, 2022 without needing the necessary qualification. We discuss this trend of extending status in our latest podcast, however at that time most chains were only extending status for residents of China or those who travelled to China or Asia frequently. Both Shangri-La Hotels and Best Western have gone beyond this offer with extensions to everyone globally. (Source Best Western)”All BWR members worldwide are eligible for elite status protection and no action is required on the part of the member. Status will be maintained for all members regardless of their current tier, ensuring both new and veteran members are protected at this time…
