RateBuddy Verdict

The Good
  • The 4% cash back rate on dining, bars, and coffee shops is one of the highest available in Canada for a no-fee card.
  • Highly accessible to students and newcomers with a very low $15,000 household income requirement.
  • Includes a unique 1.5% earn rate on drugstore purchases and pre-authorized payments.
The Trade-offs
  • Cash back is only paid out once per year in January, offering less flexibility than monthly payout cards.
  • The 4% dining tier is capped at $5,000 in annual spending, after which it drops to the 0.5% base rate.
