Comparing American Express, CIBC and TD Infinite Business Cards

We continue our series on comparing Aeroplan credit cards that were introduced to the market on November 8, 2020. Today’s post focuses on all the business cards. Unlike our previous comparison posts, where we picked similar cards to look it, this post has a wider range of annual fee.

I went ahead with this post anyway as there are only 3 co-branded Aeroplan business cards to compare overall anyway. You can technically count the CIBC Business Plus card as a 4th one, but it depends on the type of business to qualify for that card, so for the purposes of this post, I will only include 3, but mention how the Plus card works too.

[REVIEW] Scotiabank’s Path to Impact

I had to opportunity to attend the unveiling of Scotiabank’s Path to Impact this past week, in recognition and celebration of Small Business Week.

The installation is an immersive, maze-like journey you can walk through that’s been created from real-life Canadian stories of small business owners and entrepreneurs. Between the yellow arch of Big Idea and the successful red Impact, Canadians will find themselves often Isolated, being thrown Curveballs, or finding that Doors Keep Closing on them.

RBC Visa Business Platinum Avion First Year Fee Waived

I was actually pretty shocked to see this promotion, as RBC rarely waive their annual fees, granted the RBC Visa Business Platinum Avion is a business card, rather than personal. Either way, I am just happy to see this offer. Below are the highlights of this credit card:

$120 annual fee (first year fee waived if you apply before May 31, 2017)

Comparing Canadian and U.S. SPG American Express

The U.S. based Starwood Preferred Guest American Express personal and business cards have increased their sign up bonus from 25,000 to 35,000. The last time was about a year ago. My question is, when is it going to be Canada’s turn? Also, what about waiving the first year fee? Let’s take a quick look at the highlights of the four cards in question.

Ranking the Business Credit Card Options (updated October 23, 2016)

I have been ranking the overall credit card portfolios of each financial institutions. However, I think it may be worthwhile to rank business credit card portfolios only. As I have been collecting my own batch of business credit cards, this will be helpful for me too.
