Complete Expedia for TD Guide: Maximize your TD Rewards points

Expedia for TD is the travel portal reserved for TD cardholders. You book flights, hotels, and packages by paying with your TD Points (0.5 cents value, or 200 points per dollar), your TD card, or a combination of both, with no blackout dates.

Expedia is one of the world’s largest travel booking sites. In Canada, the platform offers a dedicated portal for TD Bank customers: Expedia For TD. This portal allows TD cardholders to redeem their TD Rewards points for travel, with no blackout dates or restrictions.

Before diving into the tutorial, keep one thing in mind: one TD Rewards point is worth 0.5¢ on Expedia For TD. This is not the best return among Canadian programs, but the portal offers great flexibility. Here’s how to use it smartly.

Difference between Expedia.ca and ExpediaForTD.com

Expedia.ca and ExpediaForTD.com share the same inventory: same flights, same hotels, same prices, same cruises. The difference lies elsewhere. Here’s what distinguishes the two portals.

Additionally, if you find a cheaper flight + hotel package within 24 hours of booking, or a cheaper hotel room up to 48 hours before check-in, Expedia will refund the difference. This guarantee applies to both portals.

Note also that Expedia.ca has its own loyalty program, Expedia Rewards (One Key), which cannot be combined with TD Rewards.

What you can book on the portal

The Expedia For TD portal covers all of Expedia’s travel products. Here is the complete list of possible bookings:

How to redeem your TD Rewards points

Redeeming points via the Expedia For TD portal takes less than 5 minutes. The rule is simple: every 200 TD Rewards points are worth $1 off your trip.

Steps to book a trip

1. Log in to the Expedia For TD portal with your TD EasyWeb credentials.
2. In the top right corner, check your points balance and their dollar value.
3. Search for your trip (flight, hotel, package, etc.).
4. At the payment stage, choose to apply your points.
5. Adjust the amount to cover with points according to your preference.
6. Complete the remaining payment with your TD card.

At the time of payment, the green box displays the exact amount you can cover with your points and the number of points required. You can cover all or part of the trip depending on your available balance.

Once the booking is confirmed, you will receive a confirmation email with payment details (points portion and card portion). Points are deducted immediately from your account. There you go! Congratulations on the savings obtained thanks to your TD Rewards points. We love it!

Book as you wish

Have you already booked a trip with your TD card outside of Expedia For TD? You can still use your TD Rewards points to reimburse the purchase. This is the Book Your Way option. However, the ratio is less advantageous: 250 TD Rewards points = $1 reimbursement, compared to 200 points on the Expedia For TD portal.

1. Log in to your profile on TDRewards.com.
2. In the Redeem section, click on Book Your Way.
3. On the next page, click on Redeem TD Points Now.
4. Enter your eligible travel transaction information.
5. Confirm the operation and select the number of points to redeem.

Maximize the value of your points

The 200 points = $1 ratio gives a fixed value of 0.5¢ per TD Rewards point on Expedia For TD. This value never varies, regardless of the type of booking or season. This is both the strength and the limitation of the program.

When to use Expedia For TD

The portal shines in certain specific scenarios. Conversely, other uses of points will be more advantageous depending on your profile.

Conclusion: Who is Expedia For TD for?

Expedia For TD will not appeal to everyone. The value of 0.5¢ per point limits the potential for travellers aiming for business class. However, for economy class travellers, all-inclusive enthusiasts, cruisers, and families, the portal offers a flexibility that few Canadian programs can match.

Furthermore, combined with the annual $100 travel credit and 4 free visits to airport lounges, the TD First Class Travel^® Visa Infinite* Card positions itself as an excellent all-purpose travel card. Enhance your strategy by following our advice and stay tuned for seasonal promotions!
