Helping Canadians maximize their travels
Marriott Bonvoy has just released a new limited-time promotion called “Week of Wonders” for it’s members. This promotion might be of interest for anyone with upcoming hotel stays during the month of October and November.
EDIT: The MogoCard is no longer being offered as of April 5, 2023 and will be discontinued as of June 6, 2023.
EDIT: As of 2023, Mogo no longer offers the ability to check your credit score or free identity protection 🙁
In Canada, it’s expensive to check your credit score and report. For example, the credit bureau Equifax charges between $12 and $20/month for credit report monitoring.
Well, if you want a FREE alternative, register with Mogo to get your Equifax credit score on a monthly basis!
EDIT on Nov 24, 2020: Sadly, the Raptors are out of the NBA Playoffs now. Thus, the promotion has been updated with a new promo code ‘EARNMORE‘. New clients who use that code can still earn 2.10%* interest when they open a Tangerine Savings Account and Chequing Account with a $150* bonus when payroll requirements are met. Offer valid until January 31, 2021.
The 2020 NBA Playoffs have started and the Toronto Raptors, 2019 NBA champions, are hoping to defend their title. The official bank of the Raptors is Tangerine bank and they’ve just introduced an exciting promotion for new clients.
If you become a Tangerine client within 24 hours of a Raptors NBA Playoffs win, you could earn 2.10%* savings interest and $250* bonus when you add your payroll.
Air Canada has now released details of their new revamped Aeroplan rewards program which starts on November 8th, 2020. With this transformation, Air Canada hopes to make Aeroplan a more rewarding travel program for it’s members.

These days, it’s so easy to connect to the Internet via our computers, laptops and mobile devices. But, when connecting to an unsecured Internet connection (like public Wi-Fi), there’s a risk that someone may steal your private data and identity.
In order to minimize the risk of being a cyber crime victim, it’s best to use a virtual private network (VPN). A VPN allows your computer or mobile device to connect securely via an encrypted connection to the Internet.
In this NordVPN review, I will explain the benefits of using a VPN and why NordVPN is the best VPN to protect yourself on the Internet.
