RateBuddy Verdict
The Good
- Includes a generous 2-year annual fee rebate for the primary cardholder and up to three authorized users.
- Excellent for business logistics with a 1.5x earn rate on shipping, internet, and phone services.
- Provides significant travel value through free checked bags and 4 annual Maple Leaf Lounge guest passes.
The Trade-offs
- Requires a very high annual spend of $40,000 to unlock the full 75,000 Aeroplan point welcome bonus.
- Lacks out-of-province emergency travel medical insurance, which may be a concern for international business travelers.
