Get the American Express Cobalt Card right away to lock in a lower monthly fee for 12 months + MORE Jul 13th

 It’s been a couple of months since we last updated the RBC offers on our site as once again we had ssues with RBC’s system that wouldn’t show them to me when I logged in. That seems to be fixed again so here is the update with all the latest offers. Most of these are available on all RBC cards. You can view RBC’s card offerings here. Be sure to login to your RBC account right away to load these offers (if required) or get the promo codes if required. Personally I receive these offers on the WestJet RBC World Elite Mastercard but I know most if not all should also available for RBC’s most popular card the RBC Avion Visa Infinite Card These offers have been added to our Guide to RBC Royal Bank ‘RBC Offers’ and you can find them below as well.

 We know that American Express will be updating the Cobalt Card as of August 16, 2021. On that date the card will get an increased earn rate of 3x points for select streaming services like Netflix and Spotify. It will also get Mobile Device insurance added to insurance suite of benefits. The biggest change however will be the ability to convert points earned on the Cobalt Card directly to American Express’ airline partners. This is big news for many points and miles enthusiasts as this means 1 to 1 redemption to Air Canada Aeroplan and British Airways Executive Club. And then a redemption rate of 1 to .75 points for the other airline partners.What this translates to is that you can earn up to five Aeroplan points or British Airways Avios per dollar spent on the Cobalt Card. In the terms of earnings, this is the highest standard accelerated earn rate on any card in Canada for Aeroplan or British Airways.  Recommend reading: American Express Cobalt™ Card Confirmed Multiplier Locations Of course with all these changes comes the one piece of bad news and that is an increase to the monthly fee…

Here are the Rewards Canada Top 5 Small Business Credit Card Sign Up offers for this month! This is not a ‘best’ credit card list like our Top Travel Rewards Credit Card rankings but instead a look at cards for small businesses that have very good acquisition (welcome/sign up) offers. As always when choosing a card you should always take other factors into account other than the just sign up bonus, but when some of these cards are first year free, they can and do pay off even when you grab them strictly for the sign up rewards. This month we see four first year free cards on the list! And remember this list is based on minimum value towards travel which we calculate as the minimum value of the welcome bonus less the annual fee. It is entirely possible to receive more value out of the welcome bonuses on some the cards below namely those like Aeroplan and Marriott. Thanks to American Express’ Massive best ever bonuses and accelerated earn rates on seven American Express cards (Platinum, Aeroplan, Marriott Bonvoy & AIR MILES) we see their Aeroplan business card jump up to take the top spot…

Here’s your Rewards Canada Daily update! Your daily dose (or near daily dose) of loyalty program, credit card and travel news, bonuses, deals and more.  A correction for our Daily Update post from yesterday – American Express has reached out to us to let us know the American Express Gold Rewards Card IS NOT being discontinued. We’ll provide more details as soon as we can about this news. You will notice however that it will be removed from the Rewards Canada site later this week but it will return in the near future!— There seems to be a lot of confusion about the HSBC Rewards to British Airways transfer bonus we posted about yesterday. We saw this offer come up on Reddit late last week but reached out to HSBC ourselves to confirm the details of the offer since there was nothing on the HSBC website. Once we received the confirmation and supporting documents from HSBC we went ahead with our post. Despite this confirmation it appears a lot of HSBC’s customer service agents aren’t even aware of the offer nor has there been anything posted on their website – so no wonder there is confusion! HSBC told us they promoted the offer via a mail out to customers who have eligible cards and we have copies of those that I’ve uploaded here https://rewardscanada…
