Brim Financial (Canada)

Has anyone heard of this new card. The offers is amazing and I am not sure. the Company is Brim Financial and the benefit for travel would be amazing if it works. Does anyone have the card? Any insight would be great.

What offers are you referring to?

Seems to be a Canadian based card with very little info about value of the reward system. One reference is that 10,000 points is $100 in reward value but that is low in general.

Some of the benefits are nice though for a relatively low annual fee but can be matched or beat by other cards with better reward schemes.

The biggest is installment payments + free wifi + cancellation insurance + zero on foreign exchange??? Have you seen these benefits anywhere else?

Yes, available with many cards that tend to be premium but come with additional benefits to compensate for the annual fees.
Are you associated with Brim Financial?

It appears this company only issues cards in Canada, and I have edited the thread Title to reflect this. While cards with similar features are readily available in the USA, this seems to be less true in Canada.

Not in Canada, no forex fees is very unusual.
