Credit Cards
[PROMOTION] 30% RBC Rewards Conversion Bonus to British Airways’ Executive Club
The 30% RBC conversion bonus to British Airways Avios is back. Not as the 50% that has been offered in the past, but those days may be long gone at this point.
[DISCONTINUED] RBC Shoppers Optimum MasterCard
It was only a matter of time before this credit card gets discontinued, since the Shoppers Drug Mart buyout by Loblaws, which runs the PC Plus program.
Whether we can Transfer CIBC Aventura Points to Aeroplan Miles
This has been a frequently asked questions, which I have answered before, but I thought I’d give an update. The question is whether Aventura accounts holders are still permitted to transfer their points to Aeroplan miles. The short answer is yes, so long as you opened your Aventura Rewards account prior to October 1, 2013.
New Design for the MBNA Smart Cash MasterCard
I can’t believe it. After all those phone calls, the MBNA Smart Cash MasterCard is back on the scene and the only thing significant change I see a new credit card design.
Laurentian Bank Visa Dollars
Not an earth-shattering credit card, but the Laurentian Bank Visa Dollars does add a little competition to the cash back industry.
[DISCONTINUED] MBNA Smart Cash Platinum Plus MasterCard Discontinued?
Is it just me or is the MBNA Smart Cash Platinum Plus MasterCard discontinued? I can’t find an application link anyway.

Top Credit Card Sign Up Bonuses for June 2016
Quite a few changes this month, especially with a slew of TD Aeroplan promotions coming off the list. The list has really trimmed down for the month of June.
Another Change in the Chase Marriott Rewards Premier Visa Link
Marriott Rewards and Chase Canada have teamed up to offer a co-branded credit card that allows you to earn Marriott Rewards points. This is one generally known as one of the top credit card sign up bonuses out there.
American Express Referral Bonuses (Updated May 21, 2016)
The way a referral bonus works is that you refer a family or friend to the same credit card (or a credit card within the same family), and then you qualify for a referral bonus offer. I thought I’d update the American Express Canada referral bonuses, as there are several significant changes from the last time I updated this list. Last time I wrote the word “remaining” in the title. For the time being, it seems like the referrals bonuses are here to stay, so I will take the word off.
