It has been a long time coming. Since 2013 Tangerine gave hints that they will be coming out with a credit card “soon”. They started off with a preview of the credit card in 2015, where existing clients can register to get a chance to obtain the credit card before it goes public.
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.
This is not going to be an easy post to write, but I did want to try to pin each financial institution against each other to see how they fair. This is going to be a very subjective post where I am going to rank each each company based on their overall credit card portfolio. I am also going to list out some of the top credit cards offered by each institution.
After much anticipation, Tangerine Forward Banking has finally released its new credit card, the Tangerine Money-Back Credit Card. For the time being, it is not available to everyone in the public yet. But you can register for a special preview. The Preview is open for registration for a limited time, and only a select number of registrants will be invited to apply for the card during the preview period.
