This is down from 5% with a maximum of $250 cash back however you are not limited to grocery, gas or restaurants to get this sign up bonus – it 2.5% back on all purchases up to that $150 level.That’s not the only change from American Express today, the American Express Business Gold Rewards Card is no longer first year free.

– RewardsCanada.ca
BMO has provided us with details on offer changes that are coming later this week to the BMO Rewards World Elite Mastercard and AIR MILES World Elite Mastercard. We have featured both cards quite a bit over the past six months or so thanks to their really good sign up bonuses and that fact that they were being offering with no annual fee in the first year. Currently the BMO Rewards World Elite Mastercard has a 35,000 point sign up bonus worth $250 and the AIR MILES World Elite is offering 3,000 AIR MILES as the sign up bonus which we value at over $300. These offers will change in two days, come Friday, the BMO Rewards World Elite Mastercard will retain the 35,000 point bonus but you’ll have to pay the $150 annual fee and the AIR MILES card will see its offer drop to 2,000 miles with a $120 annual fee. So if have you been considering either one of these cards or weren’t but are thinking now may be the time to score some free travel credits and Priority Pass.BMO World Elite MastercardLimited Time: $150 annual fee waiver in the first year*Welcome Offer: Get 35,000 welcome points (after you spend $3,000 in the first 3 months)*Get 3 BMO Rewards points for every $1 spent on travel, dining and entertainment purchases*Get 2 points for every $1 spent everywhere else*Points you can use to cover all flight charges & taxes*Fly on any airline, with no blackout dates*VIP airport lounge access (over $200 US/year value)*Interest Rate: Purchases 19…
