Refer to RBC page for up to date offer terms and conditions

This offer only applies to new applications for a RBC British Airways Visa Infinite credit card received and approved by Royal Bank of Canada (“Royal Bank”) between July 23, 2025 and February 25, 2026 (“Offer Period”), subject to the conditions below. Additional cardholders(s) (co-applicant and authorized user(s)) on the RBC British Airways Visa Infinite credit card account are not eligible for this offer. Existing cardholders on any RBC Royal Bank personal credit card account transferring to a RBC British Airways Visa Infinite credit card, are not eligible for the offer.

To receive the initial offer of 30,000 Avios points (“Initial Bonus”), (i) a total of $5,000 or more (“Qualifying Transaction Amount”) in qualifying net purchases and/or pre-authorized bill payment transactions (“Qualifying Transactions”) must be posted to your Credit Card Account within the first 90 days of your Credit Card Account opening date (“Initial Period”), and (ii) your Credit Card must remain open and in good standing, “good standing” meaning that your Credit Card Account must not be past due for more than two (2) consecutive Credit Card Account statement periods, closed, charged off or in credit revoked status at that time. If you are not currently a member of The British Airways Club, you will be enrolled automatically once you are approved for the RBC British Airways Visa Infinite credit card. Please note that the address your British Airways Club account is registered under must match the one for your RBC British Airways Visa Infinite account at all times for the Avios to be posted to your British Airways Club account. The Initial Bonus will be awarded to your British Airways Club account, approximately 15 weeks after the date you reach $5,000 in Qualifying Transactions within the Initial Period.

To receive the additional 30,000 Avios points (“Additional Bonus”), (i) a separate amount totaling $5,000 or more (“Qualifying Transaction Amount”) in qualifying net purchases and/or pre-authorized bill payment transactions (“Qualifying Transactions”) must be posted to your Credit Card Account within 91 – 180 days of your Credit Card Account opening date (“Subsequent Period”), and (ii) your Credit Card must remain open and in good standing at the time the Additional Bonus are awarded to your British Airways Club account, approximately 15 weeks after the date you reach $5,000 in Subsequent Qualifying Transactions.

For greater certainty, you may qualify for the Additional Bonus notwithstanding not having qualified for the Initial Bonus and likewise, you may qualify for the Initial Bonus and not qualify for the Additional Bonus where the Qualifying Transaction Amount has not been reached.

Eligible transactions do not include cash advances (i.e. balance transfers, cash-like transactions and bill payments that are not pre-authorized merchant payments), interest or other charges. and credits for returns and adjustments posted to your Credit Card account during the Period will reduce the amount of your Qualifying Transactions. The Qualifying Transaction Amount is based on the transaction posting date of each Qualifying Transaction, not the transaction date. This means that transactions that take place prior to the last day of the Period will not be considered for the Qualifying Transaction Amount if they have not yet been posted or processed by the merchant, the payment network (Visa) or Royal Bank by the last day of the Period.

If you close or change your RBC British Airways Visa Infinite credit card for another type of RBC Royal Bank credit card before the Initial Bonus and/or the Additional Bonus have been credited to your British Airways Club account, you may lose the benefit of this offer. This offer may not be combined or used in conjunction with any other offer unless otherwise set out. Royal Bank of Canada and British Airways reserve the right to modify, cancel or withdraw this offer at any time. British Airways, not Royal Bank of Canada, is responsible for this offer and The British Airways Club programme. For all British Airways Club Terms and Conditions, please visit ba.com/theclub.

Eligible members who spend a minimum of $30,000 CAD on qualifying purchases on their card in a calendar year (“calendar year” refers to the time period starting from January 1 and ending December 31) will receive a maximum of one Companion Voucher for that calendar year. See ba.com/rbc-visa for full terms and conditions. See ba.com/rbc-visa for full terms and conditions.
