Montreal-based Laurentian Bank has unveiled a refreshed lineup of credit cards in conjunction with Brim Financial. The suite of cards includes a modest selection of options for travel rewards and cash back, as well as low-interest and no-fee cards.

As part of the refresh, there is a new welcome offer on the Laurentian Bank Visa Infinite Card for $600+ in points and First Year Free. Furthermore, the Laurentian Bank Visa Cashback has an offer worth $500+ cash back and First Year Free.

Laurentian Bank Visa Infinite: $600+ in Points

The flagship Visa Infinite product on Laurentian Bank’s lineup of credit cards comes with a flashy design and a healthy welcome bonus worth upwards of $600. 

The welcome offer accelerates the regular earn rates by for the first three months and up to $5,000 spent, structured as follows:

• 12 points per dollar spent (equivalent to 12% cash back) on gas, groceries, travel, transportation, and recurring payments
• 3 points per dollar spent (equivalent to 3% cash back) on everything else

After that, the card’s regular earn rates are as follows:

• 2 points per dollar spent (equivalent to 2% cash back) on gas, groceries, travel, transportation, and recurring bills
• 1 point per dollar spent (equivalent to 1% cash back) on everything else

Crunching the numbers, if you were to max out the the 12% on gas, groceries, travel, transportation, and/or recurring payments, you’d earn a total of 60,000 points in the first three months, which is equivalent to $600 as a statement credit.

To boot, the card comes with a First Year Free offer, as well as a rebate on adding two authorized users (worth $50 each). After the first year, the card’s annual fee is $130, and authorized users cost $50 each. 

You can also earn up to 17,000 more points (worth $170) by completing the following actions:

• Earn 10,000 bonus points (worth $100) when you set up a pre-authorized payment within the first three months
• Earn 5,000 bonus points (worth $50) when you set up an installment plan for an eligible purchase within the first three months
• Earn 2,000 bonus points (worth $20) when you refer a friend or family member to the card

In total, if you were to max out the welcome bonus through spending and earn the additional 17,000 bonus points, you’d have netted a total of $770 of value in the first year, without incurring an annual fee.
