Wealthsimple Visa Infinite Privilege Card

6.6/10 · Strong$240/yr ($20/month; waived for Wealthsimple Premium/Generation clients ($100K+ in assets) or with a qualifying $4,000+/month direct deposit. Applying for the card itself additionally requires $150,000+ personal income, $200,000+ household income, $400,000+ in Wealthsimple assets, or $50,000+ in annual card spend — reported as invite-limited during rollout.)No FX feesLounge access

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.

Why it earns its score

  • Flat 2% cash back on everything plus 0% foreign transaction fees
  • Six lounge visits per membership year across 1,200+ airports via Visa Airport Companion
  • Enhanced insurance: up to $2,000,000 emergency medical and rental car collision/loss damage up to $65,000 MSRP
  • Metal card issued automatically at the Premium/Generation asset tiers

Where it loses points

  • No welcome bonus
  • Applicant eligibility is gated by a $150K personal / $200K household income bar (or $400K assets / $50K annual spend) — most applicants won't qualify
  • Card rollout has been reported as invite-limited even for eligible clients

Who it's for

High-income or high-asset Wealthsimple clients who want lounge access and stronger insurance stacked on a flat 2% cash-back, no-FX card.

Who should skip it

You don't clear the $150K personal / $200K household income (or $400K asset) eligibility bar — the standard Infinite+ delivers the same cash-back and no-FX math without the gate.
