Visa Infinite and Visa Infinite Privilege cardholders now receive automatic RSVP Rewards Elite Status

Visa Canada has a new partnership with one of our home grown hotel programs, RSVP Rewards. RSVP Rewards is the relatively new program for Canada's Sandman Hotels and The Sutton Place Hotels.

February 24 Update: CIBC Aventura offering $50 gas and grocery gift cards for 5,000 points, one new Amex Cobalt multiplier & 2,500 bonus points at Alberta Sandman Hotels

Here's your Rewards Canada Daily update! Your 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! 

There are several good gift card redemption promotions right now from CIBC Rewards. Until May 4, 2022 you can redeem 5,000 Aventura points for a $50 Pioneer, Fas Gas, Ultramar or Chevron gift card or you can also redeem 5,000 Aventura points for $50 Save-On-Foods gift card. The Save-On offer is valid until February 1, 2023. Redeeming 5,000 points for $50 gift card works out to 1 cent per point in value and if you earned those points with an accelerate earn rate on one of the CIBC Aventura card it could translate to a 1.5% return. While the value and return is potentially lower than if you redeemed for travel via the Aventura Airline Reward Chart (where you can get up to 2.28 cents per point for up to 3.4% return) it's not a bad deal to consider for these cash equivalents.
