Our Review

TD Platinum Travel Visa Card

The TD Platinum Travel Visa Card is a travel card that allows its holders to earn points for their everyday purchases.  These points never expire and may be redeemed for travel rewards, with no travel blackouts, seat restrictions. The card comes with an annual fee of $99, but it also offers extensive travel benefits like an annual discount on a Priority Pass membership, as well as a suite of insurance coverage. You will earn 5 TD Rewards Points for every $1 when you book travel online through ExpediaForTD.com, 3 TD Rewards Points for every $1 in grocery purchases and regularly recurring bill payments, and 2 TD Rewards Points for every $1 you spend on all other purchases, so you can rack up points fairly quickly through your day-to-day spending. With the added welcome offer of 15,00 TD Rewards Points when you make your first purchase with the card, the TD Platinum Travel Visa Card is an interesting option for frequent flyers or even just those who want to get travel rewards out of their every day purchases. However, there are no cash back or other rewards options, so if you’re not into travel this isn’t the card for you.

As per our rating system, this card scored 19/25 on rewards, 16/25 on interest rates and balance transfers, 15/25 on perks and insurance, and 21/25 on annual fees. Therefore, the total smart score of this card is 71/100.
