Every Wealthsimple card, ranked

One of the only cards in Canada pairing a flat 2% cash-back rate with 0% FX fees. Whether it clears its own fee comes down to hitting the Premium asset threshold or the direct-deposit waiver; otherwise a no-fee alternative gets similar math for free.

$240 annual fee · First-year net value ≈ $660 · Cash back

An unusual premium card: it pays a flat 2% instead of transferable points, while still bundling real lounge access and strong insurance. The catch is qualifying: this carries one of the steepest income/asset eligibility bars of any card in this database.

How the Wealthsimple credit card works

Wealthsimple has one credit card application and two Visa cards. You apply once. If you qualify, Wealthsimple matches you to either the Wealthsimple Visa Infinite+ Card or the Wealthsimple Visa Infinite Privilege Card. Both earn 2% cash back on every purchase and charge no foreign transaction fee, though Visa's currency conversion rate still applies. You can redeem your cash back at any time to almost any Wealthsimple account.

Wealthsimple waives the monthly fee if you hold $100,000 or more in individual assets with Wealthsimple, or if you set up a direct deposit of $4,000 or more a month into your Wealthsimple chequing account. Quebec cardholders are billed annually. For the tier-by-tier detail, see the Visa Infinite+ vs Visa Infinite Privilege comparison.

Is the Wealthsimple credit card worth the fee?

If your fee is waived, a flat 2% with no foreign transaction fee is one of the best free deals in Canadian cards. If it isn't, run the numbers first:

  • The $240 fee takes the first $12,000 of spending a year just to pay for itself at 2%.
  • Against a free card paying 1.5% everywhere, such as the Rogers Red World Elite Mastercard without a Rogers service, the extra 0.5 percentage points only cover the fee at $48,000 of spending a year.
  • Foreign spending changes the math. Most Canadian cards charge a foreign transaction fee (2.5% on that Rogers card), so every $1,000 you spend in another currency saves about $25.

Frequently asked questions

Does Wealthsimple have a credit card?

Yes, two. The Wealthsimple Visa Infinite+ Card and the Wealthsimple Visa Infinite Privilege Card are both Visa cards, issued under licence by Wealthsimple Payments Inc., and both pay 2% cash back on every purchase.

What are the Wealthsimple credit card requirements?

You need to be a Canadian resident, the age of majority in your province or territory, and hold an active Wealthsimple chequing account. The Wealthsimple Visa Infinite+ Card also requires $80,000 personal or $150,000 household income. The Wealthsimple Visa Infinite Privilege Card requires $150,000 personal or $200,000 household income, or $400,000+ in Wealthsimple assets, or $50,000+ annual card spend.

Is it hard to get a Wealthsimple credit card?

It can be. Wealthsimple runs a full credit check on every application and says the card is available in limited quantities, so meeting the requirements doesn't guarantee you'll get one. It doesn't publish a minimum credit score.

How do you get the Wealthsimple credit card fee waived?

Hold $100,000 or more in individual assets with Wealthsimple, or set up a direct deposit of $4,000 or more a month into your Wealthsimple chequing account. Otherwise the fee is $20 a month ($240 a year), billed annually in Quebec.

Does the Wealthsimple credit card charge foreign transaction fees?

No. Neither Wealthsimple card charges a foreign transaction fee, though Visa's currency conversion rate still applies to foreign purchases.

Does the Wealthsimple credit card include airport lounge access?

Only the Wealthsimple Visa Infinite Privilege Card. Wealthsimple lists access to more than 1,200 airport lounges for that card. The Wealthsimple Visa Infinite+ Card has no lounge benefit.
