The TD First Class Travel Visa Infinite Card is considered to be one of Canada’s higher end travel credit cards, even though its annual fee makes it quite affordable. With easy earning potential, a flexible rewards program, and a generous insurance package, it’s definitely worth considering if you are a frequent traveller.

The travel perks and benefits aren’t quite as inclusive as other high-end credit cards. The absence of lounge access is a big one to note. Another downside is that the points cannot be converted into other rewards programs. That being said, for its price point, it’s quite competitive and still gives good value.

• Get an Annual Fee Rebate for the first year†. To receive the first-year annual fee rebate for the Primary Cardholder, you must activate your Card and make your first Purchase on the Account within the first 3 months after Account opening. To receive the first Additional Cardholder first-year annual fee rebate, you must add your first Additional Cardholder by June 4, 2024.

• Cardholders will benefit from an annual $100 travel credit when they book travel through Expedia® For TD as well as an annual birthday bonus of up to 10,000 TD Rewards Points.
• Cardholders can redeem points for a range of options at any time as long as they have at least 200 TD points available.
• No travel blackouts, no seat restrictions and no expiry for your TD Rewards Points as long as your account is open and in good standing.

Earning Rewards

Earning rewards with the TD First Class Travel Visa Infinite card is easy as you can earn on every purchase you make.

• Earn 8 TD Rewards Points for every $1 you spend when you book travel through Expedia For TD
• Earn 6 TD Rewards Points for every $1 you spend on groceries and restaurants
• Earn 4 TD Rewards Points for every $1 you spend on recurring bill payments
• Earn 2 TD Rewards Points for every $1 you spend on other purchase
• Earn an annual Birthday Bonus of up to 10,000 TD Rewards Points, or 10% of the total number of TD Reward Points earned in the previous 12 months

There is an annual spend cap of $25,000 for each of the accelerated categories. Once you exceed that maximum, you’ll earn 2 TD Rewards Points for every dollar spent.

Here’s an example of how many TD Rewards Points you could get in the first year, including 100,000 TD Rewards Points (20,000 welcome bonus plus 80,000 points when you spend $5,000 within 180 days of account opening):

Redeeming Rewards

Rewards can be redeemed at any point, in increments of 200 points. You can redeem them for options such as travel (you’ll get the best rewards value if you book through Expedia For TD), Amazon purchases, gift cards, cash credits, and education credits. Redeeming points is easy and the multiple rewards options are attractive. However, some other top-tier credit cards allow you to convert points to other programs like airline or hotel partners for more flexibility, which this card is lacking.

Credit card reward perks include:

• Redeem your TD Rewards Points for your next trip at ExpediaForTD.com and get access to exclusive deals
• Link your eligible card to earn 50% more TD Rewards Points and Starbucks Stars
• Redeem your TD Rewards Points towards purchases at Amazon.ca with Amazon Shop with Points.

Rewards Potential

Cardholders will get the best value for their points by booking travel through Expedia For TD. However, if you like to book directly with hotels or airlines to get status points then it’s not the best rewards potential out there, since booking outside of Expedia For TD lowers the value of your points. With Expedia for TD, 200 points are equal to $1 off travel purchases. For travel booked outside of Expedia For TD, you need 250 points for that same dollar value.

That said, based on average Canadian spending, Forbes Advisor estimates this card could earn $127.34 in rewards value per year with Expedia and $111.67 with other travel partners (both calculations factor in the cost of the annual fee).

• Comprehensive travel insurance coverage.
• Discounts on car rentals with Avis and Budget Rent-A-Car.
• Link your card to Starbucks Rewards to earn 50% more TD points and Starbucks Rewards on Starbucks purchases.

TD First Class Travel ® Visa Infinite* Card vs. TD ® Aeroplan ® Visa Infinite* Privilege

While both travel cards, the TD Aeroplan Visa Infinite is a luxury travel card. The annual fee is a hefty $599, but it comes with considerably more perks and benefits. including lounge access and NEXUS card rebates. It also uses Aeroplan rewards rather than TD rewards. The TD Aeroplan Visa Infinite is a strong card, but it’s best for those who travel frequently and can offset the cost of the card with the included benefits.

TD First Class Travel ® Visa Infinite* Card vs. Scotiabank Scene+ Visa Card for Students

Students studying away from home may consider a travel card like the TD First Class Travel Visa Infinite Card to help offset the cost of flights home. However, with the annual fee and rewards earning potential, you might be better off sticking to a $0 annual fee card geared towards student spending. The Scotiabank Scene+ Visa card for students allows you to earn points that can be used for day-to-day expenses like dining out, entertainment and even banking.

TD First Class Travel ® Visa Infinite* Card vs. TD ® Aeroplan ® Visa Platinum* Card

With an annual fee of $89, the TD Aeroplan Visa Platinum is a bit more affordable. The earn rates aren’t as high, but it’s also a different rewards program. While TD Rewards points are best with Expedia, Aeroplan points are best with Air Canada. So your choice between these two cards should depend on who you are most likely to book travel with to get the best value for your points.

When determining a rating for individual credit cards, the Forbes Advisor Canada editorial team factors in an exhaustive list of data points. With the TD First Class Travel ® Visa Infinite*, the scoring model used takes into account factors such as, but not limited to, rewards rates and categories, fees, welcome bonuses and other benefits and features. Keep in mind, what may be best for some people might not be right for you. Conduct informed research before deciding which cards will best help you achieve your financial goals.

The TD First Class Travel ® Visa Infinite* Card is a decent travel card . It’s easy to earn and redeem points and the suite of travel insurance is a huge perk. However, it has the best value for those who like to book their travel via Expedia. If you prefer to book directly with hotels or airlines or via other travel portals, then there are better travel credit cards out there where your rewards will go further.

TD First Class Travel Visa Infinite Card review

This premium TD card lets travellers redeem flexible rewards through a partnership with Expedia.

With a plethora of travel-focused credit cards on the market, the TD First Class Travel Visa Infinite Card may not be the obvious choice—especially considering how many Aeroplan cards TD currently has on its roster. That said, the TD First Class Travel Visa Infinite Card is worth considering. Why? It boasts a flexible redemption program and a partnership with Expedia. Cardholders get access to Expedia For TD online portal to redeem rewards for flights, hotels and car rentals on expediafortd.com. 

Add to that comprehensive insurance coverage and generous earn rates and the TD First Class Travel Visa Infinite Card becomes a solid choice for avid travellers.

TD First Class Travel Visa Infinite Card

• Annual fee: $139 (annual fee rebate—conditions apply to qualify)

The TD First Class Travel Visa Infinite Card

• Three things you need to know about the TD First Class Travel Visa Infinite Card
• How to redeem your TD Rewards
• What are the best ways to benefit from this card?

Are there any drawbacks to the TD First Class Travel Visa Infinite Card?

4 things to know about the td first class travel visa infinite card, 1. the you earn points under the td rewards program.

T he TD points system is easier to understand than the point system for the bank ’ s Aeroplan credit cards. Your Point values stay the same no matter where you ’ re flying, so it ’ s easy to work out how much they ’ re worth. Plus, TD Points can be redeemed on any airline, not just Air Canada or Star Alliance Partners. While Aeroplan Miles are valuable, if you prefer simplicity the TD First Class Travel Visa Infinite Card might be more up your alley.

2. Your points go farther when you book with ExpediaForTD.com

If you already use Expedia to book your travel, this card is a savvy choice. When you book travel online through Expedia For TD, you earn 8 TD points per $1. 

3. The card comes with a generous welcome bonus

You can earn up to $800 in value, including up to 100,000 TD Rewards Points and no Annual Fee for the first year. Conditions apply. Account must be approved by June 3, 2024..  Plus, earn a birthday bonus of up to 10,000 rewards points (conditions apply). You can also receive a $100 TD travel credit when you spend at least $500 at Expedia for TD. 

4. You’ll get great travel insurance

The TD First Class Travel Visa Infinite Card comes with up to $2 million of travel medical insurance coverage for the first 21 days of a trip. Trip cancellation, trip interruption, common carrier travel accident insurance, travel assistance services, flight delay insurance, auto rental collision insurance, and delayed and lost baggage insurance round out the card’s benefits. For a premium rewards card, The TD First Class ’ s insurance is fairly standard, however; so, if you ’ re looking for more comprehensive credit card insurance , you could consider a card like the National Bank World Elite Mastercard, * which comes with up to $5 million in out-of-province-of-residence medical/hospital insurance for trips up to 60 days (if you ’ re under 54).

How to redeem your TD Points:

You can redeem your TD Points for travel in two ways. The best—and most valuable—way is through the Expedia For TD online portal, where you can redeem 200 TD points per $1 in travel credit (0.5%) and pay the balance of the cost (if any) using your credit card (you’ll also earn Points on this spend).

Your other redemption choice is the “Book Any Way” option, which lets you book via other travel websites; however, your bookings can cost up to 25% more if you go this route. When using “Book Any Way” you’ll redeem at 250 TD points per $1 (0.4%) applied as a statement credit on your first $1,200 in travel purchases and 200 TD points per $1 (0.5%) for your travel purchases over $1,200. In comparison, with Expedia For TD, you’ll get a better and more consistent return of 0.5% on all your travel spending. 

In both cases, the TD First Class Travel Visa Infinite Card allows you to redeem for any seat on any airline. Additionally, you can redeem points for rewards in small increments (minimum 200), so this means you don’t need to build up a large pool of points before you’re able to apply them towards travel. 

Finally, through the TD Rewards site, you can shop for items such as a Vitamix blender, a Dyson vacuum or gift cards. However, you won’t get the same value as you would booking travel. For example, a $50 gift card at Best Buy will cost you 20,000 TD points, whereas you can use the same amount of points for $100 in travel on the Expedia For TD portal.

How to optimize the TD First Class Travel Visa Infinite Card

Ultimately, your best bet is to redeem points for travel from ExpediaForTD.com . Generally, prices on the website are similar to those on the main Expedia website, and you’ll be able to redeem at the rate of 200 points per $1. If you redeem points for travel outside of the TD portal, your points can lose up to 25% in value; however this could be a smarter route if you find a really good deal on another travel portal. 

If you do find a better hotel or flight deal elsewhere, you have the option to price match, but there are some restrictions: you must have booked within the last 24 hours; your travel plans must be at least 48 hours away; and travel dates, and flight and hotel classes must all be the same to submit a claim.

Does the TD First Class Travel Visa Infinite Card have travel insurance?

With this card you’ll get an extensive suite of travel insurance coverage, for big and small emergencies. For frequent travellers and those who cross the border often, this is a must. The card includes travel medical insurance of up to $2 million of coverage for the first 21 days. (If you or your spouse are over 65 or older, you’re only covered for the first four days of your trip.) You’ll also get up to $1,500 of trip cancellation insurance with this card up to a maximum of $5,000 for all insured persons. For trip interruption insurance, you get $5,000 per insured person, up to $25,000 for all the insured people on the same trip.

You’ll also get common carrier travel accident insurance, emergency travel assistant services and delayed/lost baggage insurance (up to $1,000 per insured person if your baggage is delayed for more than six hours or gets lost ultimately).

There is a minimum personal income requirement of $60,000 or a household income of $100,000. However, this is a common requirement for many cards in the same category. 

Other cards offer more incentive to spend in categories like groceries, dining and entertainment. The TD First Class Travel Visa Infinite Card only offers three times the Points earn on travel booked through the Expedia For TD portal (4.5%)—everything else is at the base three TD points per $1 (1.5%) rate. To compare, the Scotiabank Gold American Express has a five-times Points accelerator on restaurants and groceries (5% per dollar).

Finally, the TD First Class Travel Visa Infinite Card doesn’t offer airport lounge access , and you’ll be charged foreign transaction fees . So, if you like to use airport lounges, or you often find yourself shopping in a foreign currency, you may want to consider a card that offers those perks. 

Bottom line

TD’s unique partnership with Expedia, accelerated earn rates and incremental points redemption structure make the TD First Class Travel Visa Infinite Card a worthwhile consideration as a travel credit card . However, the biggest boost in earning points you’ll get with this card is by booking with ExpediaForTD.com. If you don’t want to be locked into booking that way, you may want to explore other travel card options.

One of the TD First Class Infinite VISA Benefits List include : “ Earn 3 points per $1 on everything spent “ Could you clarify why on my recent Bill Statement, showed $5 earned for 1,178 points Wouldn’t 1,178 points translate into 1178 divided by 3 ?

I have this card, but rarely use except for buying something on a trip to get the insurance coverage. The issue I have is I like to book my travel through web sites like tripcentral.ca (better for packages), VRBO (for condo rentals) and booking.com (much better selection), so only end up rarely using Expedia for TD and end up getting 1.2% back on my purchases, unless I want to wait until I have over $1,200 of points and then buy a major trip, getting 1.5% on the part over $1,200.

So, its pretty good and the insurance is good, but its not as great for travel as they like to claim.

I have had this card for about 2 years now and I am so dessapointed with it. I will stop using it from now on and I will tell everybody I know NOT to get this card or anything related to TD Bank. I changed to this card because they assured me I have full trip coverage with it so I booked my last vacation with it and considering that I did not get what I wanted on my trip they will take some responsibilities and give me some refund after my claim was with them for 8 months. They kept asking me for documents that I provided every time they asked and at the end they kept asking for documents I already submitted three times before. TD is a disgrace for Canadians. I wish the government take actions and do a deep audit on these guys. I will slowly withdraw everything I have with TD to go to another bank. Anything is better than this. Please people, do not do anything with this bank and definitely nothing with this credit card. I am been having issues with this bank since 2008 and it’s time to move on to a better service.

This is the all lying I have issues with that I lost my luggage on my way back home and my flight cut and delayed for 5 months they don’t cover anything’s this massage is for the Visa highly in-charge manager if you guys don’t find me solution I have to take legal step and say bye to TD my whole family since they denied my claim it’s really really broke my heart. I was really trust them never ever again.

I want to redeem my points from my business travel which I have accumulated as I switched to the rewards cash card now .How do I do this June 15,2022

This card is excellent and works well if you are looking to use it for travel specifically. I find it comes in handy when even needing a car rental or a hotel stay on the fly.

We have this card and use it often, we had enough points to use it for 5 hotels on our roadtrip last spring (booked them through expedia). I guess it all depends on what you plan to do. We often go on little roadtrips to Canmore, Banff or Jasper and use it to stay there as well so it really saves us for accommodations. Also not having to get separate car insurance for rental cars is a big plus.

I just got back from Cuba. Unfortunately my flight from Ottawa to Cuba was delayed by 4 hours. And from Cuba to Ottawa for 14 hours. I want to be reimbursed because I bought a ride on my The TD First Class Travel Visa Infinite. Please give me the contact information to whom to apply for compensation. Thank you,

I have First Travel Visa card. My trip is more than 21 days. How can I get travel insurance for the days after first 21 days?

This is incorrect. the $100 travel credit is only for hotels and vacation rentals ALONG with flights. Not if your travel consists only of flights. It is a Hotel credit and NOT a travel flight credit. Beware! This credit card is absolutely useless.

Welcome bonus and earn rate

The TD First Class Visa Infinite Card is one of TD’s most popular cards. The welcome bonus is typically quite generous and hovers between 80,000 – 145,000 TD Rewards points. The welcome bonus is comparable to cards on my list of the best travel credit cards in Canada .

As for the earn rate, you’ll get 8 points per dollar spent on Expedia for TD purchases. 6 points per dollar spent on groceries and dining. 4 points per dollar spend on recurring bills and 3 points on all other purchases.

To give you some perspective, when using TD Rewards points on Expedia for TD purchases, 1 point is worth $0.50. That means the base earn rate gets you 1.5% back in travel rewards, which is quite good.

Although the card has an annual fee of $139, it’s usually waived for the first year. You can also get the annual fee waived every year if you have a TD All-inclusive bank account. 

Benefits and perks

If you’re reading my TD First Class Travel Visa Infinite Card review, then you’ll want to know about all the benefits. What’s interesting is that this card recently had an update and now comes with some pretty fun perks.

$100 annual travel credit

When you book accommodations or vacation packages on Expedia for TD worth at least $500, you’ll get a $100 credit back on your credit card. This is a pretty unique benefit that puts money back in your pocket, but it does not apply to all travel categories. In addition, this benefit only applies to individual bookings and is not cumulative.

10% birthday bonus

One unique perk is the birthday bonus worth up to 10,000 TD Rewards points. To earn this bonus, TD will give you 10% of the points you’ve earned in the year leading up to your birthday. Welcome bonuses don’t count. For example, if you earned 93,000 TD Rewards points in the year leading up to your birthday, you’d earn 9,300 extra TD Rewards points on your birthday.

Save on rental cars

Cardholders get at least 10% off the base rate when renting vehicles in Canada and the U.S at Avis or Budget and paying with your TD Aeroplan Visa Infinite Card. If you’re travelling internationally, you’ll save at least 5% at participating locations.

Travel insurance

• Travel medical – $2,000,000 for 21 days / 4 days if you’re 65 or older
• Trip cancellation – up to $1,500 per person / $5,000 total
• Trip interruption – up to $5,000 per person / $25,000 total
• Flight/trip delay insurance – $500 per person – 4 hours
• Delayed and lost baggage – up to $1,000 / 6 hours
• Auto rental collision/loss damage – 48 consecutive days / $65,000
• Hotel/motel burglary insurance – $2,500
• Common carrier travel accident – $500,000

The travel insurance included is competitive and comparable to my list of the best credit cards with travel insurance , but it does lack two major types of travel insurance.

The 21 days of travel medical insurance is pretty good, but like many other credit cards, it only gives 4 days if you’re 65 or older. You’ll obviously need more coverage if you fall into that age range.

Note that was this card, you only need to charge 75% of your trip costs for your flight/trip delay and hotel/motel burglary insurance to apply. However, for trip cancellation and auto rental collision, you need to charge 100% of the cost to your card.

Mobile device insurance

Many people aren’t aware that the TD First Class Travel Visa Infinite Card comes with mobile device insurance. When you charge at least 75% of the total device or monthly plan cost to your card, you’ll be insured for up to $1,000. That said, like other mobile device insurance plans, depreciation applies when making a claim. Both cellular phones and tablets count as mobile devices.

Purchase insurance

• Purchase security – 90 days
• Extended warranty – Up to 1 additional year

The purchase security insurance covers your good from theft, loss, and damage for 90 days. With extended warranty, you your warranty doubled up to one additional year.

Visa Infinite benefits

• Concierge service –  The Visa Infinite Concierge is available 24/7 and can help you secure concert tickets, make dinner reservations and more.
• Luxury Hotel Collection – You’ll get exclusive benefits such as resort credits and room upgrades when booking accommodations through the Visa Luxury Hotel Collection.
• Dining Series –  Get access to some culinary events, such as celebrity chef meetups and tasting menus.
• Wine Country program –  Your Visa Infinite Card gets you discounts and free wine tastings at participating wineries in British Columbia, Ontario and Sonoma Valley.
• Entertainment access –  Throughout the year, cardholders get invites and exclusive access to the Toronto International Film Festival.
• Troon Golf –  Troon Rewards Silver Status is given to cardholders. With your status, you’ll get 10% off green fees, merchandise and lessons.

How to redeem your points

TD Rewards allows you to book travel in multiple ways, giving you more options. Given the flexibility, many people love TD Rewards. However, your points will have a different value depending on how you redeem them.

Expedia for TD

Expedia for TD is TD’s main travel redemption option. 200 TD Rewards points get you $1 off Expedia for TD travel bookings. This essentially makes one TD Reward point worth .5 cents. Expedia for TD is nearly identical to Expedia.ca. That means you’ll get access to a large inventory of flights, hotels, car rentals, all-inclusive packages and attraction tickets.

To redeem TD Rewards points on Expedia for TD, you have to log in to TD Rewards and click on the Expedia for TD link. When you’re ready to pay, you’ll be given the option to use your TD Rewards points. Generally, Expedia has very competitive prices.

Booking on your own

TD Rewards points can also be used to offset travel expenses you charge directly to your TD First Class Travel Visa. The redemption rate is 250 points = $1 (or a value of .4 cents per point). That means you get 20% less value than using your points on Expedia for TD. That said, when you make a travel purchase on your own that’s more than $1,200 in value, any amount that’s $1,201 or above would have a redemption value of 200 points for $1.

Even though you get less value by booking on your own, there are a few reasons to consider this option. The first reason is that you are not restricted to what is available on Expedia for TD, so you can use points for bookings on Airbnb or booking.com. The second reason why booking on your own travel is handy is that most hotel chains will require that you book directly with them to enable loyalty membership status and perks.

TD First Class Travel Visa Infinite Card eligibility

• You’re a Canadian citizen, or you’re a permanent resident
• You’re at least the age of majority in the province or territory where you reside
• You have a minimum annual personal gross income of $60,000 or a household income of $100,000

As a Visa Infinite card, there are very specific eligibility requirements. Even though there’s no formal credit score requirement listed, you’ll likely need your credit score to be at least 700 to be approved. That’s because a credit score of at least that number would put you in good standing or higher.

How the TD First Class Visa Infinite compares

As a mid-tier travel rewards credit card, the TD First Class Travel Visa Infinite Card has a lot of competition. Not only does it compete with other bank credit cards, but there are also airline credit cards worth looking at too.

TD First Class Visa Infinite Card vs. Scotiabank Passport Visa Infinite Card

The Scotiabank Passport Visa Infinite Card is a very popular travel credit card since it gives you get six free annual airport lounge passes and has no foreign transaction fees. The earning rate of this card is similar to what TD offers. The overall insurance package offered by TD is slightly better.

TD First Class Visa Infinite Card vs. American Express Gold Rewards Card

Another great mid-tier travel card is the American Express Gold Rewards Card . Although the card has an annual fee of $250, you get an annual $100 travel credit and a Priority Pass Membership with four free annual Plaza Premium airport lounge passes. What makes this card stand out is the fact that you earn American Express Membership Rewards points. These points can be transferred to Aeroplan at a 1:1 ratio.

TD First Class Visa Infinite Card vs. TD Aeroplan Visa Infinite Card

If your goal is to travel for less, then the TD Aeroplan Visa Infinite Card should also be considered. With this card, you’ll earn Aeroplan points on all eligible purchases. This is relevant because Aeroplan is Air Canada’s loyalty program and one point can easily be worth between 1.5 – 2 cents each. In addition, by having this card, you get your first checked bag free and preferred pricing on Aeroplan redemptions.

Final thoughts

My TD First Class Travel Visa Infinite Card review is positive. It’s an ideal card for people in the following situations:

• You want to save on travel – TD Rewards points are highly flexible and best used via Expedia for TD.
• You bank with TD – If you have an All-Inclusive Banking Plan, the annual fee is waived for this card.
• You want insurance – The included travel and purchase insurance with this card is excellent.

Although Expedia for TD may not be the best rewards program out there, it’s easy to understand and there are no blackout dates. Plus, the overall insurance package you get with this card is excellent. That said, the earn rate for this card is not as good as other cards out there.

Hi Barry! Thanks for another great post. I currently use the AMEX cobalt as my everyday card and wanted to get a supplementary card to use when AMEX is not accepted. I currently have an All-Inclusive banking plan with TD, which would waive the annual fee for the TD First Class Travel Visa Infinite Card & the TD Aeroplan Visa Infinite Card. Which one would you recommend between the two?

Hey Sylvia.

It sort of depends on your goals. If you got the TD Aeroplan VI card, you could pool the points with your Cobalt since those points can be converted to Aeroplan. The TDFCTVI is good if need to make non-Aeroplan bookings such as car rentals or hotel bookings.

You state the following: “Note that was this card, you only need to charge 75% of your trip costs for your travel insurance to be valid.” However, my review of the wording indicates that under Trip Cancellation, you must charge the full cost of your trip to the card to get coverage. This is under the definition of Covered Trip.

You’re right. the 75% only applies to hotel/motel burglary and trip delay.

Calculating rewards with the new and improved TD First Class Travel makes it a good competitor to the Aeroplan card. I feel like it’s hard to get a good value with Aeroplan (2 cpp). More than often international travel gives around 1.4 cpp making the First Class card more valuable (if booking something via Expedia to get the $100 credit that is. Am I missing something? Would the Aventura or RBC Avion otherwise be better?

Hey Philippe,

I haven’t had too much trouble finding Aeroplan value between 1.8 – 2 CPP. Then again, I booked most of my travel before there was crazy demand.

Aventura and Avion both have a fixed travel program where you can get a higher CPP, but I personally find Aeroplan to be more valuable. I typically try to collect American Express Membership Rewards points and then transfer them to whatever program gives me good value when I need to make a redemption.

The TD First Class Travel® Visa Infinite* Card stands out among travel credit cards for its nice welcome bonus, strong rewards rate on all purchases, and particularly massive earn rate for purchases via through Expedia® For TD†.

Who's the TD First Class Travel® Visa Infinite* Card for?

How to earn TD Points with the TD First Class Travel Visa Infinite

• Earn 8 TD Rewards Points† for every $1 you spend when you book travel through Expedia® For TD†
• Earn 6 TD Rewards Points† for every $1 you spend on Groceries and Restaurants†
• Earn 4 TD Rewards Points† for every $1 you spend on regularly recurring bill payments set up on your Account†
• Earn 2 TD Rewards Points For every $1 you spend on other purchases made using your card†

Points don’t expire as long as your account is active, and the card has no caps on the total amount of TD Points that can be earned.

How to redeem your TD Points

Though there are a number of redemption options with TD Points, you get the best value when redeeming for travel via one of two methods:

1. Book Any Way†

The Book Any Way† redemption path allows you to charge eligible travel expenses to your credit card and then retroactively redeem your points for those expenses within 90 days of the expense date. Travel expenses may include but are not limited to:

• Air travel taxes
• Baggage fees
• Airport parking and shuttles
• Car rentals
• Local commuter transport, like trains, buses or subways
• Travel attractions and entertainment

Each point redeemed via Book Any Way† is worth $0.004 for the first $1,200 of any redemption and $0.005 for the remainder of any redemption above $1,200.

Expedia® For TD

Points can alternatively be redeemed for flights, hotels, vacation packages and rental cars via ExpediaForTD.com. Redeeming with this method yields a flat value of $0.005 per point. The site will indicate the dollar value of the TD points you have on hand, and then you apply those points to your travel purchase when checking out.

Aside from the high value in earning and redeeming rewards via ExpediaForTD.com, the platform also provides a nice price guarantee feature: If you find a cheaper Flight + Hotel package within 24 hours of booking or a cheaper hotel rate up to 48 hours before check-in, Expedia will refund the difference between what you paid and the lower rate you found.

2. Other redemption paths

TD Points can also be redeemed for the following, though the value you get per point tends to be lower than what you get for the above two travel redemption methods.

• Amazon’s Shop with Points † : Select your TD card  as your method of payment at Amazon.ca checkout , then automatically apply points toward your purchase. 10K TD Points can be redeemed for $33 (value of $0.0033 per point) and can be redeemed for Amazon.ca purchases either in part or in full.
• TD’s Shop the Mall † :  Redeem points for clothing, electronics and computers from retailers like Roots, Zara, and the Body Shop.
• TD’s Shop the Catalogue † : Redeem points for merchandise including clothing, games, furniture, and appliances.
• Gift cards †  at retailers like Bed Bath & Beyond, Best Buy, Canadian Tire, and more.
• Cash statement credit †  for your TD card account. This requires a minimum 10K points to redeem. The first 10,000-point minimum is worth $0.005 per point and then each additional 400 points is worth $1 (0.0025 per point).
• Education credit †  via HigherEdPoints.com . Credits must be purchased in minimum 62,500 points/$250 credit increments, for a redemption value of $0.004 per point.

TD First Class Travel Visa Infinite key benefits

• Excellent welcome bonus of up to $800 in value, including up to 100,000 TD Rewards Points and no annual fee for the first year. 
• High earn rate on travel, groceries and restaurants, and recurring bills without loyalty to a particular store
• Comprehensive travel insurance

What people have to say about the TD First Class Visa Infinite

Redditor, alwaysdetermined points out that yes, the annual fee can be waived with TD's All Inclusive but notes "the All-Inclusive costs $29.95, but that account fee can be waived if you keep $5,000 in the account at all times."

Reddit user, SensitiveAward , has the card, says they travel multiple times a year and is please with the insurance coverage saying "TD [credit card] comes out cheaper" when comparing it to third-party travel insurance products. 

However, some users say the Expedia For TD prices are higher than regular Expedia rates, so be sure to cross reference the two portals before booking (and clear your internet cache or browse in incognito to prevent tracking)

TD First Class Visa Infinite eligibility requirements, fees, and rates

• Minimum income:  $60,000 individual and $100,000 household annual income
• Foreign transaction fee: 2.5%
• Annual fee: $139, $50 for each additional cardholder (fees can be waived with TD's All inclusive banking plan)

How does TD First Class Visa Infinite compare?

When comparing  travel credit cards  with similar annual fees, the TD First Class Travel® Visa Infinite* Card strengths and weaknesses are clear:

Its sign-up bonus eclipses the competition, which gives it an immediate punch of value. It’s also something of a no-brainer card for those who have TD’s All-Inclusive Banking Plan, as the annual fee rebate† effectively makes the card free to use year after year.

It’s less ideal for those who are unlikely to spend a significant amount at through Expedia® For TD, want to avoid the foreign transaction fees and want free airport lounge access. 

TD First Class Travel Visa Infinite vs. Scotiabank Gold American Express® card

No foreign transaction fees, earns 6X Scene points for each $1 CAD on all eligible purchases at Sobeys and eligible grocers¹, 5X Scene+ points for every $1 CAD spent on other eligible groceries and 3X Scene+ points for every $1 CAD spent on gas, and has an all-encompassing travel insurance package.

TD First Class Travel Visa Infinite vs. BMO Ascend™ World Elite®* Mastercard®*

Includes complimentary membership in Mastercard Travel Pass provided by DragonPass,* with four annual complimentary passes. That’s a ~$128 USD value that renews every year*. Plus the up to 60,000-point sign-up bonus* and first year annual fee waiver* is still competitive with the TD card’s sign-up bonus.

*Terms and conditions apply

Drawback: There are increased earn rates but you earn only 1 point for every $1 spent everywhere else where they do not apply.* 

Is the TD First Class Travel Visa Infinite worth it?

Yes, for its welcome bonus alone it's a great card. You'll also get a first year annual fee rebate, high earn rate in everyday spending, 10% annual birthday bonus, a $100 annual travel credit, and comprehensive travel coverage. 

Is TD First Class Travel good?

Yes, especially if you're a TD client. You can't lose with its awesome welcome bonus, high earn rate in everyday spending, special perks like its birthday bonus and $100 annual travel credit (nearly negating its annual fee), and full suite of insurance coverage.

Does TD First Class Travel have lounge access?

No, there is no airport lounge access with the TD FIrst Class Travel Visa Infinite. Check out the BMO Ascend or Scotiabank passport for cards with similar annual fees that include airport lounge access .

What does TD First Class Travel Cover?

It's the full suite of travel insurance as well as purchase protection and rental car. Check out all the details in the TD First Class Travel review insurance section.

TD First Class Travel vs TD Aeroplan: How to Choose

The main difference between TD First Class Travel and TD Aeroplan is the rewards system.  Aeroplan is Air Canada’s reward program, while the TD First Class Travel card is tied to TD Rewards Points. Thinking about where you shop and how you like to redeem your points can help you decide which of these cards is the better fit.

What is TD Aeroplan?

What is td first class travel.

• TD First Class Travel vs. TD Aeroplan: Which is better?
• TD First Class Travel cards
• TD Aeroplan cards

TD Aeroplan is the name given to a group of TD credit cards that earn Aeroplan points . You can use the points to buy things like flights, hotel rooms, car rentals, merchandise and more via Air Canada’s Aeroplan redemption platform.

TD offers four Aeroplan credit cards:

• TD Aeroplan Visa Infinite .
• TD Aeroplan Visa Platinum.
• TD Aeroplan Visa Infinite Privilege.
• TD Aeroplan Visa Business.

Did you know? TD isn’t the only issuer that works with Aeroplan. American Express and CIBC also offer Aeroplan credit cards with their own earn rates and perks.

Aeroplan rewards

Each of the four Aeroplan credit cards offered by TD have slightly different earn rates and reward categories. Learn more about each card’s earn rates and spending categories below: 

TD Aeroplan Visa Infinite Card

• 1.5x Aeroplan points on eligible gas, groceries and Air Canada purchases. 
• 1x Aeroplan points on everything else.
• Double the points earned when you shop with partner brands and through the Aeroplan eStore. 
• 50% more Aeroplan points when you shop at Starbucks (card must be linked to your Starbucks Rewards account). 

TD Aeroplan Visa Platinum Card

• 1 Aeroplan point per $1.00 spent on eligible gas, groceries and Air Canada purchases.
• 1 Aeroplan point per $1.50 spent on everything else.

TD Aeroplan Visa Infinite Privilege Card

• 2x Aeroplan points on Air Canada purchases. 
• 1.5x Aeroplan points on eligible gas, groceries, travel and dining purchases.
• 1.25x Aeroplan points on everything else. 

TD Aeroplan Visa Business Card

• 1.5x Aeroplan points on eligible travel, dining and business purchases. 
• 1x Aeroplan points on everything else. 

TD Aeroplan card earn rates and categories accurate as of June 22, 2023.

Pros of TD Aeroplan

• Range of cards to choose from.
• Business card available. 
• Most cards include travel insurance, such as medical, baggage delay and flight cancellation.

Cons of TD Aeroplan

• The redemption program focuses mainly on Air Canada. 
• Lower earn rates than similar cards, including the TD First Class Travel card.

TD First Class Travel is another name for one of TD’s rewards cards: the TD First Class Travel Visa Infinite card. It’s the only card from TD with the name First Class Travel, but not the only card that earns TD Rewards Points. The TD Platinum Travel Visa, TD Travel Rewards Visa and TD Business Travel Visa also earn TD Rewards Points.

TD First Class Travel rewards

The TD First Class Travel Visa Infinite card earns between two and eight TD Rewards Points per CAD spent, depending on the purchase category.

• 8x TD Rewards Points on travel bookings made via the Expedia for TD platform.
• 6x TD Rewards Points on groceries and restaurants.
• 4x TD Rewards Points on recurring bill payments.
• 2x TD Rewards Points on everything else. 

Pros of TD First Class Travel

• High reward earn rates compared to TD Aeroplan cards.
• Travel TD Rewards Points can be redeemed with multiple booking platforms.
• Includes travel insurance, such as medical, baggage delay and flight cancellation.  

Cons of TD First Class Travel

• Only one First Class Travel card to choose from.
• Highest earn rate is only for Expedia purchases.

TD First Class Travel vs TD Aeroplan: Which is better?

TD Aeroplan beats out First Class Travel when it comes to points value. Based on NerdWallet analysis, the average value of 1 Aeroplan point is worth 2.23 cents. To compare, you can expect to get around 0.25-0.5 cents per TD Rewards Point, according to NerdWallet analysis. These values depend on the redemption method you choose.  

That’s not to say TD Aeroplan cards are better than the TD First Class Travel Visa Infinite card. If you don’t fly with Air Canada, for example, Aeroplan points may not be as practical. Look at features like annual fees , reward categories, redemption options, interest rates and insurance perks when making your decision.

Until March 4, 2024, there’s a record-high welcome bonus of up to 135,000 TD Rewards Points† up for grabs, and beyond that, there are many reasons to keep the card in your wallet year after year.

Let’s look at 7 reasons why the TD First Class Travel® Visa Infinite* Card should be part of your overall credit card travel strategy.

• Annual fee: $139, rebated for the first year †
• Application must be approved by June 3, 2024 to receive this offer

In This Post

1. record-high welcome bonus, 2. first-year annual fee rebate, 3. elevated category earning rates, 4. 10% annual birthday bonus, 5. flexible redemptions with td rewards points, 6. annual travel credit, 7. strong insurance coverage.

The current welcome bonus on the TD First Class Travel® Visa Infinite* Card matches the highest we’ve ever seen.

If you apply and are approved for the card by March 4, 2024,† you can earn up to 135,000 TD Rewards Points in the first year.†

To unlock the full welcome bonus, you’ll need to meet the following conditions:

• Earn 20,000 TD Rewards Points  upon first purchase †
• Earn 115,000 TD Rewards Points  upon spending $5,000 in the first six months †

In other words, you’ll need to spend an average of $833 on eligible purchases in each of the first six months as a cardholder to earn the full welcome bonus.

Plus, you’ll benefit from earning more points along the way, thanks to the card’s category earning rates, which we’ll discuss below.

When it comes time to redeem, you can redeem 135,000 TD Rewards Points for up to $675 worth of travel booked through Expedia® for TD, or for up to $540 for travel booked directly with vendors with the Book Any Way feature.† 

The structure of the current offer is such that you have a sizeable welcome bonus paired with a reasonable minimum spending requirement , and a full six months to complete it.

With a record-high welcome bonus up for grabs, there’s no better time to apply for the TD First Class Travel® Visa Infinite* Card ; however, there are many other compelling reasons to have this card, which we’ll discuss below.

The TD First Class Travel® Visa Infinite* Card normally comes with an annual fee of $139.†

In tandem with the historically high welcome bonus, the current offer includes a first-year annual fee rebate, which applies to both the primary cardholder and the first supplementary cardholder.†

While the TD First Class Travel® Visa Infinite* Card would certainly be worthwhile even with a $139 annual fee, the first-year annual fee rebate really makes this offer even more compelling.

Plus, if you have a TD Unlimited or All-Inclusive banking account, you can have the annual fee waived on one TD credit card of your choice, including the TD First Class Travel® Visa Infinite* Card , on an ongoing basis.

The TD First Class Travel® Visa Infinite* Card also has a four-tier earning structure, which allows you to earn more points on many eligible everyday purchases.

These category multipliers are useful as you work to meet the minimum spending requirement, as well as when you continue to pad your TD Rewards Points balance over the long-term.

Currently, the earning rates on the TD First Class Travel® Visa Infinite* Card are as follows:

• Earn 8 TD Rewards Points per dollar spent on eligible travel booked through Expedia® for TD†
• Earn 6 TD Rewards Points per dollar spent on eligible groceries and restaurants†
• Earn 4 TD Rewards Points per dollar spent on eligible recurring bills†
• Earn 2 TD Rewards Points per dollar spent on all other eligible purchases†

It’s worth noting that there’s an annual spending cap for the elevated earning rates in the groceries, restaurants, and recurring bill payment categories.

After you’ve spent $25,000 within the year, the earning rates in these categories will be lowered to 2 TD Rewards Points per dollar spent.†

If you redeem TD Rewards Points for a value of 0.5 cents per point by booking travel through Expedia® for TD, these rates are equivalent to a 4%, 3%, 2%, or 1% return, respectively.

These are solid earning rates, which will help you quickly earn points to offset the cost of travel throughout the year.

Plus, on your cardholder anniversary date, you’ll get a further boost to your balance with one of the card’s other hallmark features.

In addition to the strong earning rates on day-to-day spending, you’ll also receive a 10% Birthday Bonus in the form of TD Rewards Points .†

Each year on your cardholder anniversary date, you’ll earn an additional 10% bonus on all the TD Rewards Points you’ve earned over the past 12 months, up to a maximum of 10,000 points.†

To maximize this benefit, which is worth up to $50 if you redeem the points for travel booked through Expedia® for TD, you’d need to earn a total of 100,000 TD Rewards Points organically throughout the year.

To put this into perspective, you’d need to spend around $1,380 per month on eligible groceries and dining purchases†, or any other combination to bring you across the threshold of 100,000 points.

When it comes time to redeem your points, you’ll be happy to know that TD Rewards Points are fairly flexible.

While you can’t transfer your points to any external airline or hotel loyalty programs, the best (and most valuable) way to redeem TD Rewards Points is for travel, either booked through Expedia® for TD or directly with any vendor.

In fact, TD Rewards Points are particularly useful to have on hand when it comes to filling the gaps for travel that can’t be booked through other loyalty programs.

The most valuable way to redeem TD Rewards Points is through Expedia® for TD, which will give you a value of 0.5 cents per point.

On the platform, you can book flights, hotels, car rentals, cruises, tours, and even Disney tickets, among other things, and get the maximum possible value from your points.

Since many of these expenses are typically difficult to book with other points currencies, using TD Rewards Points to book travel at a fixed value of 0.5 cents per point is an excellent redemption opportunity, and could end up saving you a significant amount of cash on your next trip.

On the other hand, if you want to book travel directly with vendors, you can still redeem TD Rewards points for those purchases by exchanging the points for a statement credit at a fixed rate of 0.4 cents per point against eligible travel purchases charged to the card.†

For example, with the Book Any Way feature, you can book directly with an independent hotel and then apply your TD Rewards Points as a statement credit to offset the cost.

Plus, if you redeem your TD Rewards Points against larger Book Any Way travel expenses, you’ll gain access to an improved redemption rate of 0.5 cents per point for any amount over $1,200.†

To redeem TD Rewards Points against travel purchases booked directly with vendors, you’ll have to login to the TD Rewards website and redeem points within 90 days of the original travel purchase.†

One of the other features on the TD First Class Travel® Visa Infinite* Card that makes it worthwhile to keep for the long-term is the $100 annual travel credit. †

The $100 annual travel credit helps to offset the card’s $139 annual fee, bringing it down to an effective $39 annual fee year-after-year. However, with an eligible bank account , you’ll enjoy an annual fee rebate anyway, which makes the $100 annual travel credit even more attractive.

Beginning in the second year of card membership, you’ll earn a $100 travel credit each year on your cardholder anniversary date, which can then be used towards accommodations and vacation packages booked through Expedia® for TD.

Importantly, the credit applies to eligible purchases of $500 or more. Therefore, you can also think of it as up to a 20% discount on accommodations or vacation packages on one of your next trips.

Keep in mind that by paying for the remainder of your expense with your TD First Class Travel® Visa Infinite* Card, you’ll earn 8 TD Rewards Points per dollar spent†, too.

Lastly, the TD First Class Travel® Visa Infinite* Card comes with competitive insurance coverage. This is a key feature for a strong travel credit card, and one that you’ll certainly want to be aware of as a cardholder.

The comprehensive insurance coverage offered by the card can best be divided between travel insurance and retail insurance.

In terms of travel insurance, the card provides the following:

• Emergency medical insurance: Up to $2 million for trips up to 21 days for those aged 64 and under, and up to four days for those aged 65 and older†
• Trip cancellation: Up to $1,500 per person (maximum of $5,000 per trip)†
• Trip interruption: Up to $5,000 per person (maximum of $25,000 per trip)†
• Common carrier travel accident insurance: Up to $500,000 of coverage for losses while travelling on a common carrier (bus, ferry, plane, train, or car rental)†
• Flight delay: Up to $500 per person for delays of four hours or longer†
• Baggage delay: Up to $1,000 per person for delays of six hours or longer†
• Car rental: Up to 48 days of insurance on a vehicle with an MSRP of up to $65,000†
• Hotel/motel burglary insurance: Up to $2,500 of coverage per occurrence of stolen personal items that belong to the cardholder or eligible family members travelling with the cardholder†

With the exception of emergency medical insurance, you’ll need to charge the full cost of your trip to be eligible for the other benefits.†

Not only can the included travel insurance coverage on the card save you money, but you’ll be assured that you won’t incur any additional expenses in the event of disruptions to your travel plans.

When it comes to retail insurance benefits, cardholders can benefit from the following:

• Mobile device insurance: Up to $1,000 in the event of loss, theft, accidental damage, or mechanical breakdown for eligible mobile devices.†
• Purchase security: You’ll be protected if an item is stolen or damaged within 90 days of purchase.†
• Extended warranty protection: If you purchase an item that comes with a manufacturer’s warranty, you’ll receive double the warranty up to a maximum of 12 additional months.†

Of these, mobile device insurance and extended warranty protection can be particularly useful if something happens to an eligible product purchased on the card.

As always, it’s important to read the insurance booklet to fully understand what’s covered and eligibility criteria for your unique situation.

The TD First Class Travel® Visa Infinite* Card is an impressive card that comes with strong travel benefits and competitive earning rates.

If you’re in the market for a new credit card, you should certainly consider the TD First Class Travel® Visa Infinite* Card , especially with its record-high welcome bonus and first-year annual fee rebate.

Be sure to apply and be approved for the card by March 4, 2024, to take advantage of this best-ever offer.
