Some cards have reward tiers, meaning you won’t earn that 1% until you’ve spent a certain amount, while others cap how many points you can earn. How you spend can even impact which card is right for you.
To help you find the best card we dissected more than a 200 credit cards to understand how they dish out their rewards. We looked credit cards issued by RBC, TD, Scotiabank, BMO, CIBC, National Bank, HSBC, Capital One, MBNA, Hudson’s Bay President’s Choice, Canadian Tire Financial, American Express, Chase and Desjardins. We did not look at every card offered by each issuer, nor did we look at credit card products that are only available in one province or region.
Our ranking breaks down into the core rewards programs, which consists of cash-back, travel and retail rewards, for consumers, businesses and students…
