Corrections and offer changes

Last updated

Every change we’ve made to card offers and values since October 30, 2026, newest first. Each entry is dated the day our check found the change; the card page was updated after review.

Most entries are issuers changing their offers. Entries marked “Our correction” fix a mistake of ours.

  1. Our correction

    Scotiabank Gold American Express

    We rechecked the insurance certificate. Seven coverage rows added on November 3 were incomplete or described what is covered where the limit or coverage period belonged. They now give the certificate's figures: mobile devices up to $1,000, from the later of 30 days after purchase or the first wireless bill, for up to 2 years; car rentals up to 48 days on vehicles with an MSRP up to $65,000; flight delays of 4 hours or more; delayed luggage after 4 hours; hotel burglary in Canada and the U.S. only; and a $60,000 lifetime maximum for purchase security and extended warranty.

  2. Offer changed

    Scotia Momentum Visa Infinite +

    Scotiabank posted a new offer: 10% cash back on the first $2,000 in the first 3 months (up to $200), for accounts opened November 2, 2026 to April 30, 2027. The first-year fee is still waived. At $2,000 a month in typical spending, the welcome bonus is now worth $156.70 (was $256.70) and first-year value is $676.30 (was $776.30).

  3. Offer changed

    Scotiabank Passport Visa Infinite +

    Scotiabank posted a new offer of up to 35,000 Scene+ points: 15,000 after $3,000 in the first 3 months and 20,000 more after $10,000 in the first 6 months, for accounts opened November 2, 2026 to January 3, 2027. Both targets are met at $2,000 a month, so the welcome bonus is now worth $350 (was $250) and first-year value is $545.60 (was $445.60).

    These offers ended on November 1, 2026, and no replacement was posted when we checked. We no longer count these welcome offers, including first-year fee waivers: first-year value shows each card’s ongoing value until a new offer is confirmed.

  5. Card changed

    BMO eclipse Visa Infinite Privilege

    BMO changed the card on November 2, 2026: no foreign transaction fees, 10 airport lounge passes, a $200 Travel Credit in place of the $200 lifestyle credit, 5 points per dollar on health and wellness in place of drugstores, and a new welcome offer that needs $10,000, $20,000 and $40,000 of spending. At $2,000 a month the first target isn’t reached, so the welcome bonus now counts as $0 (was $533.33). Net annual rewards are now −$135.00 (was −$122.20) and first-year value is −$135.00 (was $411.13). The $599 annual fee is unchanged.

  6. Our correction

    BMO Preferred Rate Mastercard

    On October 30 we removed the first-year fee refund because BMO’s product page didn’t mention it, which set first-year value to −$29. BMO’s card terms do refund the $29 annual fee for the first year on new accounts, so on November 1 we restored it: first-year value is back to $0.

  7. Details added

    American Express Aeroplan Reserve Card

    Offer unchanged: 60,000 points after $7,500 in the first 3 months, which $2,000 a month doesn’t reach, so it still counts as $0. We added two details from American Express’s page: the 25,000 points in month 13 need $2,500 of spending that month, and the annual fee rises to $799 on January 12, 2027.

  8. Details added

    RBC Avion Visa Infinite Privilege

    Points unchanged: 35,000 Avion points on approval and 20,000 after $5,000 in 6 months, for applications by November 25, 2026. The offer also includes 6 airport lounge passes, which our description had left out. We added them; they aren’t counted in the value.

  9. Offer extended

    WestJet RBC Mastercard

    Same bonus (5,000 WestJet points on the first purchase and 10,000 after $1,000 in 3 months), but the approval window now runs to November 18, 2026 instead of November 3. RBC’s page also lists a welcome companion voucher from $199, which isn’t counted in the value.

  10. Offer extended

    WestJet RBC World Elite Mastercard

    Same 30,000 + 30,000 + 10,000 point structure, but the approval window now runs to November 18, 2026 instead of November 3. RBC also offers a first-year fee exemption for applications made through a designated RBC page and approved October 8 to November 18, 2026; because it depends on how you apply, it’s noted but not counted. A companion voucher from $119 isn’t counted either.

  11. Offer changed

    Simplii Financial Cash Back Visa

    Simplii replaced its 20% offer on the first $500 of gas, grocery, drugstore and pre-authorized purchases with double cash back at restaurants, bars and coffee shops for the first 3 months, up to $80. At $200 a month on dining that adds $24, so the welcome value fell to $24 (was $92.50) and first-year value to $334.80 (was $403.30). The ongoing value ($310.80) and the $0 fee are unchanged.
