January 21 Update: How to maximize the elite status benefits from The Platinum Card from American Express & get your 2nd night free for stays in Quebec City

Here's your Rewards Canada Daily update! Your daily dose (or near daily dose) of loyalty program, credit card and travel news, bonuses, deals and more. This update is brought to you by the HSBC World Elite Mastercard which is currently offering a welcome bonus of up to 100,000 bonus points worth $500, has no foreign transaction fees and no annual fee in the first year! 

 

Another major feature on the main Rewards Canada site received a makeover and update this week. That feature is How to maximize the elite status benefits from The Platinum Card from American Express. This is our piece showing how you can take the elite status benefits that you get with the card and extend those elite statuses to even more hotel, car rental and even cruise loyalty programs. The number of statuses has actually gone down one since our last update as currently Wyndham Rewards has put their status match offer on pause. Click here to check out this feature.
