TORONTO — OpenTable and Visa have collaborated to offer eligible Visa Infinite Privilege cardholders access to high-demand and sought-after primetime restaurant reservations in Toronto, Montreal, Vancouver and Calgary, and surrounding areas, in addition to select cities in the U.S. and Mexico.
Primetime reservations at select restaurants in each of these cities will be available to OpenTable diners who book with eligible Visa Infinite Privilege cards through the OpenTable & Visa Dining platform. Restaurants include Michelin-starred venues and local favourites, with the list set to grow to more than 500 restaurants across 34 North American cities by 2025.
“We’re committed to offering our cardholders unique benefits and exceptional experiences that enrich their everyday lives,” says Dan Iwachiw, head of Product at Visa Canada. “Together with OpenTable, we hope to spark adventure and help eligible Canadian Visa Infinite Privilege cardholders discover new culinary destinations across North America, while supporting the success of local restaurants with new customers.”
