Updated May 12 as some card offers have changed
Here are Rewards Canada’s Top Travel Credit Card Sign Up offers
for the month of May 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.
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)
