A new benefit for Fidelity Amex/Visa card holder

Few months ago, I talked about Fidelity Amex card in here, basically, you earn 2%(2 points) for every dollar you spend, those are BOA world points, you can redeem them for travel or other rewards or direct deposit into Fidelity my smart cash account as cash. The card only carries 1% foreign transaction fee

Today, I went to the website again, found out a new redemption partner-Air Canada Aeroplan, you can now transfer you worldpoints into Aeroplan miles on 1:1 basis, that means you earn 2 miles per dollar charge to this credit card. 120K miles will get you First class to some Asia countries, one stopover+ one open jaw or 2 stopovers permitted

If you just get a card, make sure to call the number on the back to TURN OFF auto deposit into Fidelity account function.

    If I do not have an Aeroplan account yet, is it still worth it to get one just to deposit my Worldpoints? What is the advantage of enrolling in Aeroplan as a secondary FF program (I heard they dont have starnet blocking and lower elite status requirement)?

  9. Troy said,

    @mo, only do it when you have plan to tranfer

  10. Mo said,

    @Troy, not sure about “transfer”. You mean transfer Worldpoints to Aeroplan, transfer Aeroplan mileage to something else, or transfer from my current FF program to Aeroplan? I assume you meant the first one, but that does not answer my question, regrettably.

  11. Troy said,

    @Mo, I mean, u set AP acct when you want to transfer or whenever a special signup promotion exists

  12. Mo said,

    I see. So you are for the idea. Thanks.
