Top 5 Credit Card Sign Up offers for October – These cards provide some of the best value out of their welcome bonuses
– RewardsCanada.ca
Here are the Rewards Canada Top 5 Travel Credit Card Sign Up offers for the month of October 2020! 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 (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 three first year free cards on the list Only one change this month and that is the MBNA Alaska Airlines World Elite Mastercard jumping up to second place thanks to its new $100 statement credit offer! Editor’s Note:As travel is curtailed right now these offers are more forward looking and can and should be used towards your long term travel plans – whether that’s later this year, next year or even beyond. Getting the cards now allows you to achieve the sign up bonuses as you wish and then continue to spend to build up those points and miles balances to make those future vacations that much better…New Amex Offer for the Cineplex Store – Spend $15 to receive a $5.99 credit

It’s been less than a week since our last update of our RBC offers page and two new offers have emerged in that time! The best one is a really good offer for Microsoft purchases:Get a $50 statement credit when you spend $499.00-$999.99 and pay with an eligible RBC Royal Bank credit card. Get a $100 statement credit when you spend $1,000 or more and pay with an eligible RBC Royal Bank credit card.This offer is valid until December 30 so it is perfect for your upcoming Christmas shopping! You do need to load the offer to your RBC card so you’ll have to login to your account and do so. Also the offer is only available online which correct me if I’m wrong is the only way to shop Microsoft directly as I believe they have closed down or in the process of closing down their physical stores in Canada?The other offer added is from a merchant I have never heard of before, Jewlr: Get 10% back when you spend $100 or more at Jewlr.ca. Offer ends December, 31 2020. Maximum statement credit of $50 for each transaction, up to 2 transactions*Again this is an online offer only and it also has to be loaded to your RBC card…
