Aeroplan's 3.5x bonus is really 4.5x total. Book by Aug 3.

Air Canada's bonus math adds the multiplier on top of base points, so a 3x offer actually yields 4x total, and a 3.5x offer yields 4.5x total. New bonuses on routes like Boston (3x), Halifax-Toronto (3.5x), Frankfurt, Manila, Santiago, and Tulum (each 2x) are all bookable by August 3 for travel through December 15, 2026. The Toronto City Airport to U.S. cities (3x) deal extends to September 30. No registration needed — just book cash fares in Economy (excluding Basic).

the play

Lock in these routes by August 3, and stack earnings with an Aeroplan co-brand card like the Amex Aeroplan Reserve for 3x on Air Canada spend.

Trip.com deal: 17.5% cashback is solid, but past rates hit 36.5%.

Capital One Shopping and Offers are running a deal on Trip.com today (September 9) with up to 17.5% cashback or 17X miles on hotel, lodging, and car rental bookings. Flights earn 3.5%/3X, and other categories like tours or transfers earn 2.5%/2X. Rates are targeted, so you may see higher offers. The cashback from Capital One Shopping is redeemable only for gift cards, not cash. This is a decent return, but note that past deals (like in March) offered up to 36.5% for hotels, so this is a step down. The deal expires today.

the play

Log into your Capital One Shopping and Capital One Offers accounts, check your targeted rates for Trip.com, and book any eligible travel before the September 9 deadline.

Don't book on TopCashback's 16% Klook rate until you read the fine print.

TopCashback has boosted rates across IHG, Radisson, Viator, GetYourGuide, Klook, Expedia and more, but the 'up to' qualifiers change the deal. Viator's 15% is only for new customers, while existing customers earn 10%. Expedia's 10% applies only to new customers booking activities, with existing customers seeing 5%-8% for other travel. IHG's 12% is limited to Iberostar, though all IHG brands earn 10%. No expiry is listed, so compare rates on Cashback Monitor or Savewise before committing.

the play

Check the 'up to' terms on each rate, then compare on Cashback Monitor before booking.
