National Bank: How to Use the NBC $150 Annual Travel Credit?

With this valuable benefit that automatically renews every calendar year, holders of the National Bank World Elite Mastercard receive an annual $150 travel credit that can be applied to certain travel-related expenses:

• Airport parking
• Baggage fees
• Seat selection
• Access to airport lounges
• Flight upgrades

This credit must be used between January 1 and December 31 of each year. If it is not used, it is lost.

You receive this annual travel credit as soon as you subscribe to National Bank World Elite Mastercard. This is in addition to all the other benefits you get with this card, including its welcome bonus.

To use the annual travel credit on your National Bank World Elite Mastercard, you will need to log in to your NBC online account.

Then select the “Redeem my points” tab and click on “Redeem my points” at the bottom of the tab. You can also visit the NBC à la carte Rewards portal here.

Once on the NBC À la Carte Rewards portal, select your National Bank World Elite Mastercard.

Then choose the “Travel Expenses” option from the menu. Alternatively, you can click on this link to go to this page.

Then, the available credit will be displayed, up to a maximum of $150, for:

• Parking fees
• Baggage fees
• Seat selection fee
• Airport lounge access fees
• Airline ticket upgrade fees

If you have already used certain amounts, it will be indicated:

To claim the NBC annual travel credit, simply enter:

You will receive your credit directly on your National Bank World Elite Mastercard account.

You can use any fee charged by an airline to receive the credit.

Here’s an example of a plane ticket with Air Canada and EasyJet on which we applied the annual travel credit offered by the card:

Here’s another example of prepaid parking at Vancouver International Airport for which I was able to take advantage of the $100 credit:

Or another example where the cost of a Park’N Fly parking space from Montreal was also accepted.

The National Bank World Elite Mastercard has an annual fee of $150, but its $150 annual travel credit can fully offset this cost. This unique feature effectively makes this premium card a no-fee card.

The National Bank’s annual travel credit is a significant benefit to help you optimize your travel expenses. This is exceptional for a World Elite Mastercard credit card, which is accepted everywhere (including at Costco) and comes with some of the best insurance coverage on the market.

Key points to remember:

• Meet the conditions for eligible expenses
• Plan your travel purchases to maximize this annual benefit
• Each year, keep an eye on the December 31 deadline to avoid losing your credit.
