The new CIBC Aeroplan® Visa Infinite* Card offer is 10,000 Bonus Aeroplan Points and a buddy pass for travel in North America including Hawaii & Mexico

The last set of cards we look at early this morning (or late at night for those out West like us) are the CIBC Aeroplan cards. We start with their mainstay card - the CIBC Aeroplan® Visa Infinite* Card which is CIBC's equivalent card to the TD® Aeroplan® Visa Infinite* Card and replaces the venerable CIBC Aerogold Visa Infinite Card. 

The new TD® Aeroplan® Visa Platinum* Card offer is 10,000 Bonus Aeroplan Points and first year annual fee rebate

  

Now onto our fifth post of the night covering the suite of Aeroplan cards and this one looks at the entry level version from TD, the TD® Aeroplan® Visa Platinum* Card

The new American Express® Aeroplan®* Reserve Card offer is up to 75,000 Bonus Aeroplan Points with $100 statement credit or 40K points, $100 credit + buddy pass for travel in North America

The new American Express® Aeroplan®* Card offer is up to 20,000 Bonus Aeroplan Points and a buddy pass for travel in North America including Hawaii & Mexico

 

Here we are jumping right into second post of the night with coverage what would be considered Air Canada Aeroplan's mainstay American Express card - the American Express® Aeroplan®* Card

The new TD® Aeroplan® Visa Infinite* Card offer is 10,000 Bonus Aeroplan Points and a buddy pass for travel in North America including Hawaii & Mexico

 
The launch of the new Air Canada Aeroplan program has been delayed until Monday but the new credit card offers have not been! Many of the program details were revealed this past summer although there were several items being left to the actual launch date. One of those being kept behind door number three was what the new welcome offers would be on the suite of Aeroplan co-brand credit cards. Now we are pleased to pass them along and we start off with what would be considered Air Canada Aeroplan's flagship or mainstay card - the TD® Aeroplan® Visa Infinite* Card

Sneak Peek at what will be offered on the new Air Canada Aeroplan credit cards as of Sunday

 

Technically speaking as a partner of all of Aeroplan's financial partners we have not been able to disclose what sort of welcome bonuses will be offered come Sunday when the new program launches. However thanks (or perhaps no thanks) to a person who we'd guess to be a branch employee with TD leaked some of the details of the TD cards onto Reddit. So Aeroplan gave us the go ahead to give you this sneak peek at what will be coming:

• On eligible* cards, members earn a Buddy Pass** for a buy-one-get-one ticket anywhere Air Canada flies in North America – including Mexico and Hawaii. After first buying an economy class ticket, on the second they pay only the government taxes and third-party charges. The Buddy Pass can be used very flexibly: it can be applied to a ticket purchased in any Economy fare class; it can be used any time within a year of when it’s issued, with no blackouts; there are no inventory restrictions—last seat availability.
  * All Core cards are eligible, and Premium cards at CIBC and TD. Entry-level cards are not eligible.
  ** The Air Canada Buddy Pass and the welcome bonuses require a minimum spend requirement to be earned.
  

All this being said I did notice that not all the details were provided on the Reddit sub-forum where this info was leaked so there will still be some new info coming on Sunday.

Introducing the new BMO eclipse Visa Infinite* and BMO eclipse Visa Infinite Privilege* Cards

BMO becomes the latest Canadian bank to begin issuing cards from an additional payment provider. We have banks like RBC who offer Visa and Mastercard cards, Scotia who offers Visa, Mastercard and American Express cards while CIBC in the past has issued all three as well. Now BMO moves beyond their long standing partnership with Mastercard to begin to issue Visa cards as well. They launch their foray with Visa cards today with two new offerings - the BMO eclipse Visa Infinite Card* and the BMO eclipse Visa Infinite Privilege* Card. Both cards will offer points from their proprietary BMO Rewards loyalty program, which you'll be very familiar with if you currently have or know about the BMO Rewards World Elite Mastercard or BMO Rewards Mastercard.

Here are the details of the new BMO Visa cards:

AIR MILES is offering reduced mileage requirements on over 1,000 reward items in their catalogue for the rest of this year with the It's Been a Year event. And what a year it has been! This offer comes at a good time with Christmas upon us and many Canadians feeling a financial pinch where it may be tougher to pay for gifts so offers like this can go a long way. Yes merchandise rewards aren't the ideal reward if you chase the highest value out of your loyalty currencies but we are in a different world now and this merchandise sale brings values close to or equal to travel redemption values!
