The earning rates match the TD® Aeroplan Visa* Business Card and align with the CIBC Aeroplan® Visa Infinite* Card. While the return on bonus categories is decent, other cards offer comparable or better rewards.
This card suits small business owners who spend heavily on shipping, internet, cable, and phone purchases, as few competitors offer bonus earning rates on these categories.
Aeroplan is the program of choice for Canadians seeking high-value international business and First Class redemptions.
The points earned from this card stretch far—you can book a one-way business class ticket across the continent on routes such as Toronto–Vancouver or Montreal–Los Angeles and still have points remaining.

The card lacks emergency travel medical insurance, which falls short of the standard set by TD's version of this card.
Many credit cards treat award travel as ineligible for travel insurance coverage—you must charge the full revenue ticket cost to the card for coverage to apply. The CIBC Aeroplan cards require only taxes and fees from your Aeroplan booking to be charged to activate travel insurance.
If you want travel insurance protection while frequently traveling on points, this card is worth keeping.
