RateBuddy Verdict

The Good
  • Earning accelerated rewards on household utilities and digital media is a unique and highly valuable perk in the Canadian market.
  • The inclusion of Mobile Device Insurance up to $1,000 is a rare and excellent benefit for a no-annual-fee card.
  • The annual "Birthday Bonus" provides a 10% boost on all the points you earned over the previous year.
The Trade-offs
  • Points are devalued when redeemed for cash back (0.5 cents/point) compared to travel redemptions (1 cent/point).
  • The accelerated category earn rates are capped at $10,000 in annual spending per category.
