Credit card welcome offers change frequently and RBC has launched new welcome offers on three of their credit cards: the RBC Avion Visa Infinite card, the RBC Avion Visa Platinum card, and the RBC Avion Visa Infinite Privilege card.
Let’s dive into the new RBC credit card offers launched on January 22nd.
RBC Avion Visa Infinite Card

Can you hold more than one of the same card? I have an Avion Visa Infinite with a shared user (additional card fee) and I am interested in 1. removing my partner as the additional card holder 2. having the ex-additional-card-holder apply for their own AVI. 3. If I can product switch my AVI to something else, can I then apply for a new AVI of my own?
Would any #2 or #3 result in the 55,000 bonus for either my partner or myself?
Thanks!
Hi. I’m wondering if you’ve had experience or known someone to get the SUB on these cards more than once in a short period (as long as you follow the 90 day application rule)? I got the plat and infinite in spring last year, but canceled them in October and I’m hoping to signup for them again soon.
