RateBuddy Verdict
The Good
- Incredible 3% return on groceries and 4.5% at Shoppers Drug Mart with no annual fee.
- Includes valuable travel medical and car rental insurance—very rare for a $0 fee card.
The Trade-offs
- Requires a very high $80,000 personal or $150,000 household income.
- Base earn rate on non-grocery/drugstore purchases is only 1%.
