WestJet business card: 100k points is the ceiling, but can you hit it?

RBC and WestJet have released the highest ever bonus on a WestJet Rewards credit card, up to 100,000 points on the World Elite Mastercard for Business. The structure: 45,000 points on first purchase, 20,000 more after $5,000 spend in 3 months, and another 25,000 after $15,000 in 6 months, plus a one-time 10,000-point anniversary bonus. That's a total of 100,000 points if you hit all tiers, but the real yield depends on your near-term business spend. The $15,000 threshold is steep, so calculate your monthly outflows before applying.

the play

Apply before Nov 30, 2026, and map your first six months of business spend to hit all three spend tiers or you'll leave 45,000 points on the table.

No tiers this time: Amex pays 30k points per $3k supplementary spend.

The flat bonus is the story: each eligible card now carries one spend hurdle, and the premium cards pay 30,000 points for just $3,000 on an added card. On the Aeroplan Reserve, a $199 additional card returns 30,000 Aeroplan points, worth about $600 at a 2cpp valuation, plus a free checked bag and Maple Leaf Lounge access. The Platinum version is the same math: $250 for 30,000 Membership Rewards, convertible 1:1 to Aeroplan, with lounge access for the cardholder. Max two added cards per account, so two Platinum or Reserve additions get you 60,000 points for $500 or $398 in fees. The no-fee Cobalt and Marriott Bonvoy cards are the easy 7,500-point wins if your cardholders can hit the $2,000 spend.

the play

Add two supplementary cardholders to your Amex Platinum or Aeroplan Reserve before October 29, 2026, and have each put $3,000 on their card within three months to bank 60,000 points.
