Put your TD Rewards points to work through the Expedia for TD platform — an Expedia portal exclusively for TD credit cardholders that offers the highest redemption value possible for those hard-earned TD points.
How does Expedia for TD work?
Expedia for TD was designed to be used by TD Bank credit cardholders.
TD credit cardholders log into the Expedia for TD platform to browse travel deals and redemption options. You can book vacation packages, accommodations, exclusive deals, and more from the platform. TD points are worth more when redeeming through the Expedia for TD platform, and you earn accelerated TD points when purchasing travel through the platform with your TD credit card.
Expedia.ca vs. Expedia for TD
Expedia for TD is an Expedia platform exclusively for TD credit cardholders who earn TD Rewards. This means TD cardholders who earn cash back or Aeroplan points can’t access the platform.
Other notable differences between Expedia for TD and Expedia.ca? The former offers accelerated TD Rewards points for money spent on travel purchases through Expedia for TD and a dedicated support team for TD customers, while the latter does not.
Outside this, Expedia for TD is not unlike its parent platform. You can browse and book flights, hotel stays, car rentals, cruise tickets and more.
What can cardholders find on Expedia for TD?
Everything available on Expedia.ca can also be found on Expedia for TD. This includes flights, hotel stays, vacation packages, car rentals, cruises, activities and more.

Is it worth getting Expedia for TD?
TD Rewards points are most valuable when redeemed through Expedia for TD. The platform, accessed at www.expediafortd.com, also offers an accelerated earn rate of up to 9 TD Rewards points per $1 spent on travel bookings.
Couple these perks with Expedia for TD’s price-matching policy and dedicated 24-hour support, and a strong case can be made for redeeming TD points through the platform whenever you can. There are a couple of drawbacks, though. The platform is only for TD credit cardholders — and even so, only those that earn TD Rewards points. Plus, there are limitations to Expedia for TD’s price matching.
How to redeem your points on Expedia for TD
To redeem your TD points on the Expedia for TD platform:
- Register your TD Rewards account on TD’s website.
- Log into Expedia for TD with your username and password.
- Find the travel offer you’d like to purchase.
- Book your offer through the online Expedia for TD portal or by phone.

Expedia for TD redemption options
The Expedia for TD booking portal offers numerous redemption options:
- Flights.
- Hotels.
- Car rentals.
- All-inclusive vacations.
- Cruises.
- Train travel.
How do TD points work?
Some TD credit cards earn TD Rewards points. Cardholders can redeem points for various rewards, including Expedia for TD travel purchases, Amazon.ca purchases, gift cards, cash and more.
You can expect to get around 0.25 to 0.5 cents per TD Rewards point, according to NerdWallet analysis.
The value of TD Rewards points varies depending on the redemption method. The good news is that TD Rewards points are at their most valuable when used to redeem travel offers through the Expedia for TD portal. Cardholders can expect to get 0.5 cents per TD Rewards point for travel purchases made through Expedia for TD.
You must redeem at least 200 TD Rewards Points — worth $1 — for travel purchases through Expedia for TD.
How to maximize TD Rewards points
Even if your TD points don’t entirely cover the cost of your booking through the Expedia for TD portal, paying the difference with your TD credit card earns you accelerated points in return — which gets you closer to another free or discounted travel experience.
Let’s say you book a $500 Air Canada roundtrip flight to the Dominican Republic through the Expedia for TD portal. You use 50,000 TD Rewards points towards the booking. This reduces the cost of your trip by $250. You put the outstanding $250 balance on your TD credit card.
Since you can earn up to 9 TD Rewards points for $1 spent through the Expedia for TD portal, the $250 you put on your TD credit card earns you 2,250 TD Rewards Points — which is a value of $11.25 back in your pocket.
Does Expedia for TD price match?
Yes. Customers can take advantage of price matching through the Expedia for TD portal — also called Expedia’s Price Guarantee.
How does price matching work?
If you find cheaper travel packages or accommodations after booking through the Expedia for TD portal, Expedia will refund the difference. But there are two important caveats. Expedia will only issue a refund if:
- You find a less expensive flight and hotel package within 24 hours of booking.
- You find a cheaper hotel rate up to 48 hours before check-in.

3 tips for using Expedia for TD
Make the most of your TD Rewards points and the Expedia for TD platform with the following tips.
1. Book through Expedia for TD instead of TD’s “Book Any Way.”
Your TD Rewards points are worth 0.5 cents per point when redeemed for travel purchases booked through Expedia for TD. You can also book travel experiences through third-party travel websites and agencies — what TD calls its “Book Any Way” redemption option — but your points won’t go quite as far. Expect to receive 0.4 cents per point for the first $1,200 of any Book Any Way travel redemption request, and 0.5 cents per point for any amount over $1,200 for the same Book Any Way travel redemption.
2. Use your TD credit card to cover any outstanding expenses from Expedia for TD bookings.
You’ll earn TD Rewards points at an accelerated rate when you use your TD credit card to cover outstanding expenses on the Expedia for TD platform. Different cards earn points at different rates:
- TD Rewards Visa earns 4 TD points for every $1 spent on travel purchases through the platform.
- TD Platinum Travel Visa earns 6 TD points for every $1 spent on travel purchases through the platform.
- TD First Class Travel Visa Infinite earns 8 TD points for every $1 spent on travel purchases through the platform.
- TD Business Travel Visa earns 9 TD points for every $1 spent on travel purchases booked online and 6 TD points for every $1 spent on travel purchases booked by phone through the platform.
3. Don’t wait to shop around.
Expedia for TD will only honour its price-matching policy under specific circumstances. If you’ve booked a flight and hotel package, you have just 24 hours to submit a refund request to Expedia for TD if you find a cheaper package. Hotel bookings have a more generous timeframe: Expedia for TD will issue a price-matching refund up to 48 hours before check-in.
