Top Cash Back Credit Card Sign Up offers for March

Here are Rewards Canada’s Top 5 Cash Back Credit Card Sign Up offers for the month of March 2023. 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 cash back 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.

Here are the Top 5 Cards for this month in order of welcome bonus value:
