This has become a monthly list for me. You may see some credit card promotions, but I will mostly likely just combine them into this list. Unless there is a very time sensitive sign up to fully qualify for a specific bonus.
I will be looking to update this list every time I see some significant movement in the industry. This is the third time that this is being updated (February and March).
It has been a while since we last updated this list. With the weak Canadian dollar, apparently slowly recovering, I thought I’d update the list of United States affiliated credit cards offered by Canadian financial institutions.
I have written posts ranking each financial institution, but I thought it would be fun to write a post listing the top 1 credit card per institution. I have listed the credit cards based on the most recent financial institution rankings. Maybe one day I will list the top credit cards, but it highly depends on a person’s needs, so it is very subjective.
We just released a post about the Top Sign Up Bonuses for the month of March. But that list was primarily focused on higher than normal sign up bonus miles and points. To be fair, there are some cash back promotional offers that are worth a look. I am uncertain whether this list is going to be re-posted monthly, but you can at least stay up to date on our Top Cash Back Credit Cards page.
The beginning of January started off pretty week, and things started to pick up as the month went on. Below are the top current higher than normal credit card sign up bonus offers to watch out for. As a result, February’s list looks a lot more promising with a few more choices.
I did not think that I was going to be updating this post so quickly, but enough has changed from last month that it warrants an update. Every time there are some significant movements in the credit card industry, I plan on updating the rankings of this post. You will notice that under every credit card companies’ explanation for its ranking, I will be listing some of its top credit cards to choose from.
For those of you who don’t like paying annual fees. This is the post for you. Personally, I would actually prefer signing up for credit cards that waive their first year annual fees. Those are generally the credit cards with much more generous sign up bonuses. So you take the bonus first, then decide what you want to do with the credit card after the first year. In some cases, it may make sense to pay the annual fee.
Carefully putting together a credit card portfolio to optimize your purchases can be a hassle. That being said, a frequent traveller has a lot of travel expenses that can be optimized if you put together a strong credit card portfolio.
