If you’re a President’s Choice Optimum member, having a PC Financial Mastercard is a great way to earn rewards points. But with three cards to choose from, you may be wondering which one best helps you maximize rewards? In this full review of the PC Financial Mastercard lineup, I’ll explain the features and benefits of all three cards, and I’ll let you know about the PC Money Account, a new way to earn PC Optimum points when you shop.
Introducing the PC Financial Mastercard Family
As mentioned, there are no fewer than 3 PC Financial Mastercards to choose from: the base PC Financial Mastercard, PC Financial World Mastercard, and the premium PC Financial World Elite Mastercard. The three cards share common features: no-annual fees, the same interest rates, and each will earn you PC Optimum points when you spend, albeit at different earn rates. Let’s take a closer look at the features of each card, starting with the PC Financial Mastercard.

The latest AIR MILES Bonus Boom event kicked off today with your usual bunch of bonus miles offers for shopping or completing actions with various AIR MILES partners. Most of the bonuses are available between today and June 30 and once again if you use three different Bonus Boom offers you’ll get 95 bonus AIR MILES. Just like the past few Bonus Boom events you have the ability to get the 95 bonus miles all from one retailer so long as they have multiple offers. For example Sobeys has three different offers available so if you meet the criteria for those three offers you’ll get the 95 bonus miles. With Bonus Boom you can earn well over 1,000 bonus miles with all the offers but in reality most serious collectors will be earning upward of several hundred miles. To find your offers you now have to sign in and the Bonus Boom page will automatically show you all the offer in your region that you are eligible for. Some are automatic while most is seems you have to opt in. So be sure to log in to your AIR MILES account on the Bonus Boom page to see what offers are there and then opt-in to as many as you wish…

 Continuing on with our series on credit cards in Canada that need an overhaul, today we’ll look at two cash back cards that need some tweaking. This ‘overhaul’ series started earlier in the year when we posted an article about how the RBC Avion Visa Infinite Card was due for a major overhaul. That post was initially planned as five credit cards that need an overhaul but we ended up writing so much about the Avion card that it ended up being a post just on that card. We then followed up with the second card a few weeks ago – the American Express Gold Rewards Card and the changes we think that card needs and in this post we’ll cover cards three and four. The fifth card in the list will have its own post in the near future.Here are the previous posts in the our 2021 Overhaul/Tweaking series:There is one very popular travel rewards credit card in Canada that is due for a major overhaul  It’s time for American Express to tweak the venerable Gold Rewards Card   This post will actually be much shorter than the first couple articles as in reality the two cards we look at here only need one small tweak each which is actually the same for both cards…
