Here are the Rewards Canada Top Travel Credit Card Sign Up offers for the month of February 2022! 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 two first year free cards on the list.
No changes in the top 5 but there is shuffling around for positions 6 to 10 as the Marriott Bonvoy American Express Card move down the list as its bonus went back to its standard 50,000 points and the MBNA Alaska Airlines World Elite fell of the list as it no longer has the $200 statement credit offer opening a spot for the BMO eclipse Visa Infinite card to make it on the list.
Remember you will find this list smack dab in the middle of the Rewards Canada homepage for easy reference!
Here are our top credit card sign up offers for this month (in order of welcome bonus value, calculated as our minimum mile/points value for the program minus the annual fee)
