Scotiabank Gold AmEx: Earn 20,000 welcome bonus points

Deal Link: http://www.scotiabank.com/ca/en/0,,4657,00.html
Expiry: Oct 31, 2015

Scotiabank is offering 20,000 bonus points when you open a new Gold AmEx card by Oct 31, 2015. The normal welcome bonus is only 15,000 points. With this card, you can get 4 Scotia Rewards points for every $1 you spend at eligible gas stations, grocery stores, on dining and entertainment (4% return for travel redemption). The 20,000 bonus points are awarded when you use your new Scotiabank Gold AmEx Card for at least $500 in the first 3 months.

This is not the best offer for this card, because you still need to pay the 1st year annual fee $99. We used to see promotion for this card with 20,000 welcome bonus and FYF. Anyway, 5000 extra points is still better than nothing.

Earn 20% bonus when you transfer SPG points into AA miles

Deal Link: https://www.aa.com/viewPromotionDetails.do?fN=aad-starwood-bonus-offer.xml
Expiry: Aug 7, 2015

American Airlines is offering a 20% bonus when you transfer from SPG points to AAdvantage miles. This bonus is on top of the 5,000 bonus SPG gives on a 20,000 point transfer.

For example:

• 20,000 SPG points = 20,000 AAdvantage miles
• 5,000 Standard SPG bonus = 5,000 AAdvantage miles
• AAdvantage 20% mileage bonus = 5,000 AAdvantage miles

So, you can convert 20,000 SPG into 30,000 AAdvantage miles.

Bad news for AmEx (Canada) card welcome bonus

It seems that AmEx (Canada) is following AmEx (US) on the credit card welcome bonus policy. From the new terms, only new AmEx card members can receive the welcome bonus. For current or former AmEx card members, they will not be eligible for the welcome bonus. This change is same for all the AmEx personal cards. Up to now, there are no limitations on AmEx business cards. This is a really bad news for people who like to churn AmEx cards, including myself. :(
