Top 5 Credit Card Sign Up offers for December
– RewardsCanada.ca
Here are the Rewards Canada Top 5 Credit Card Sign Up offers for the month of December! This is not a ‘best’ credit card list like our Top Travel Rewards Credit Card rankings but instead a look at cards that have very good acquisition (sign up) offers. As always when choosing a card you should always take other factors into account other than the sign up bonus, but when most or all of these cards are first year free, they can and do pay off even when you grab them strictly for sign up rewards. In fact all of the cards on this list for September are first year free so you can try them out at no cost and decide later on if the card is right for you. All the while earning the sign up bonus which can be used to subsidize your travels!Same list of cards we saw in October and November. You may ask with the upcoming devaluation of the two BMO cards why are they still on the list? For the BMO Rewards World Elite, you’re getting $200 in travel and the Priority Pass benefits for no cost, when January 15th rolls around that 20,000 points should be boosted to 28,000 in your account as BMO says your points will retain their value so no matter you get the $200 value…
