What Is a Good Credit Score in Canada?

– canadianfinanceblog.com

Have you ever been surprised to find that you were turned down for credit, or that you had very little credit history at all? Even if your credit history is rock solid, it’s important to know what goes into determining your credit score. Understanding how your credit score is measured will help you improve it, and keep it in good standing.
What is a Credit Score?
A credit score is a summary of an individual’s entire credit history and serves as an indicator of their ability to meet their financial obligations.
Your credit file is a fairly complex document that’s full of various codes and data. The credit bureau provides an ongoing analysis of that data, summarizing it into an easy-to-decipher 3-digit score, allowing lenders to assess the overall quality of your repayment history, before deciding to dig deeper.

The one good thing about doing a website redesign and updating pages on a one by one basis is that it allows us to also bring the content of those pages up to date. Such is the case with this feature we first published back in February 2013. It has had a few updates along the way but definitely needed to be a thorough brushing up for 2022. That feature is our Guide to Credit Card Emergency Medical Insurance Coverage (formerly titled Travel Reward Credit Card Medical Insurance Coverage but there are cash back cards with this benefit now) and the main premise of this feature is to let readers know which cards provide the insurance and more importantly which will cover you when you are 65 years or older.Screen shot of the primary focus from the featureClick here to check out the updated Guide to Credit Card Emergency Medical Insurance Coverage If there are any cards/details we missed or you have any questions about this type of coverage please let us know in the comments section.

 We’ve now seen several banks offer incentives for referring friends and family to their card products, with American Express being the most notable and now TD is in the referral game. Launching today, TD has a limited time offer whereby if you have a TD card you can refer friends and family to get a TD credit card and you’ll receive a $100 e-gift card for each successful application up to three times. This offer is available until March 6, 2022 and my guess is if this limited time refer a friend offer is successful for TD we’ll see it return in the future. TD states there is a wide selection of $100 e-gift cards you’ll be able to choose from including Amazon, Uber Eats and Sobeys.Here are the cards you can refer to:TD® Aeroplan® Visa Infinite* CardTD® Aeroplan® Visa Platinum* Card TD® Aeroplan® Visa Infinite Privilege* CardTD Cash Back Visa Infinite* CardTD First Class Travel® Visa Infinite* CardTD Platinum Travel Visa* CardAlso if you don’t currently have a TD card but have been considering one and more so considering two, ie one for yourself and one for your partner/spouse/player 2 you should have enough time to apply for one card right now and then refer your partner/spouse/player 2 once you get your card and have it activated…
