Current 10% and Above Cash Back Offers for February 2023

ByMatt

You may have noticed by now that we started adding or expanding our commentaries to our monthly posts. Today is no different as we list the top cash back credit cards currently offering at least a 10% cash back bonus promotion. There are many other cash back offers out there too, but because the market is very competitive now, only the 10% and above promotions make it to our monthly list.

ByMatt

For this month, Tangerine extended its offer that expired last month to expire this month instead. The rest of the offers remain the same. 

Keep in mind that we still have the Top Cash Back Credit Cards page, which includes permanent and temporary offers if you wish to see a more complete list of cards, not just cards that offer at least 10% cash back.

Ranking the Credit Card Portfolios of Each Canadian Financial Institutions (updated December 12, 2022)

ByMatt

For the most part, 2022 was a relatively quiet year in terms of changes to the credit card industry (in terms of permanent offers). There was a significant amount of all-time high sign up bonuses, which do not factor into our ranking system. Our rankings are based on the intention of retaining credit cards for the long term, not based on churning.

Current 10% and Above Cash Back Offers for November 2022

ByMatt

For this month, there were quite a few changes relatively speaking. First of all, most of the previous month expiring offers were extended by a few months longer. The BMO Business and Tangerine offers will be coming to an end before it makes it to the next monthly list. Also, we added the Rogers Connections card in the permanent offers section.

It has been just over a year since our last update (December 1, 2020) of the rankings list. The timing works well to update again this month, since we are coming to the end of the year. Now we get a snapshot of 2021, as we head into 2022.

Ranking the Credit Card Portfolios of Each Canadian Financial Institutions (updated December 1, 2020)

ByMatt

It has been 8 months since our last update. Can you believe it, 8 months ago we were already dealing with lockdowns.

Suffice to say, there has been some major changes to the industry since then, namely, Capital One slowly shutting things down, along with Aeroplan’s launch of new co-branded cards. Even so, you will notice most of the ranking changes from the middle to the end of the list.

Ranking the Credit Card Portfolios of Each Canadian Financial Institutions (updated April 1, 2020)

ByMatt

It has been almost a year since we last updated this post, so no question this was due for an update. The reason why I waited so long is because there are very few changes to the rankings since then. However, there was a sufficient amount of changes to the industry to warrant an update. Most of the ranking movement occurred in the bottom third of the list. Furthermore, another common theme on this list is that the gap widen between some of the positions.

Every time I update the rankings, I have an overall theme throughout the post. For today’s post, the focus was on internal changes made by each financial institution which justify their position in the rankings.

What are Grandfathered Credit Cards? (Thoughts on Rogers World Elite Devaluation)

ByMatt

This post was inspired by the upcoming devaluation of the Rogers World Elite credit card, which I will further elaborate on below.

What is the concept of “grandfathered credit cards”? This is a concept that is thrown around a lot, but let’s further clarify what it entails. Most people who are highly active in the miles and points industry are quite familiar with this topic, so this post may not be relevant to you. But if you want to learn about the different variations of grandfathering a card, then keep reading!

This post breaks down the various ways that a credit card company can grandfather a card.
