Here are the Rewards Canada Top 5 Cash Back Credit Card Sign Up offers for the month of August 2020! This is not a ‘best’ credit card
list like our Top Cash Back 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 four of the five of the cards offering the first year free.

TD Cash Back Visa Infinite* Card – 10% cash back on all purchases up to $2,000 (Apply here)

all spending during the first three months of having the card.
The 10%
is capped at $2,000 of spending for a maximum return of $200 cash back

waiver on the primary card and the first additional card. Cash back
on this card can be redeemed at anytime for a statement credit as long
as your cash back rewards balance is $25. This limited time offer ends
September 8, 2020.
Minimum Income: $60,000 (individual) or $100,000 (household)
Between these five cards there is over $1,000 in cash back welcome bonus rewards! However even if you only take
on
one or two you are helping your finances at no cost
other than regular credit card spend. We don’t really recommend getting
all five in one month unless you know you can meet the minimum spend for
them all at once, rather you’d want to pick one or two right now,
perhaps another next month and so on.
