Personal travel or work travel? Because if we book our flights with our corporate card, points don't transfer over right?

Lol bad assumption - Deloitte would never give us a quality corporate card!

Visa infinite privilege.. It's decent, but I do look at other brands.

Amex Simply Cash Preferred - I just like to get 🤑

I never used my corporate card. Always used personal and would expense it. Never had an issue with it, and much better for my miles.
Yes, a bit more work inserting the expenses in the system vs automated, but definitely worth it (for me)

I have an Amex.

Some companies will not allow you to use personal card for hotels and flights…

Any recommendations for a card to get with good cash back and travel benefits?

Scotia momentum infinite is great

CIBC Aventura - Good if you want the miles.

Does Amex green corporate give us any benefits? I think I saw that the Americans get free Hilton status among some other things?

Amex Cobalt, Tangerine Cash Back and Home Trust Preferred(has no fx fee, just fx rate. Use for travel)

Cobalt + TD Aeroplan Visa Infinite

Amex platinum + TD Aeroplan visa infinite

AMEX gold

Amex platinum + Amex 2% cash back + some BMO card from when I was a student

I'm curious why didn't you get the cobalt?

Curious about AMEX platinum. Just relocated to Toronto and opened an account with Scotia bank but they don’t seem to have it. Which bank offers that

Scotia offers a credit card branded as Amex but isn’t a “true” Amex. Amex cards are issued in Canada by Amex bank of Canada (aka real Amex). DM me if you want a referral email that gives you extra signing bonus :)
