moi RBC Visa Credit Card

Introducing the moi RBC® Visa‡ credit card

We have yet another newcomer in the already saturated credit card market here in Canada! The recently revamped moi program now has its own co-brand card issued by RBC. This no annual fee card will earn moi points and also provide a lot of the same benefits seen across the entire RBC credit card portfolio.

Let’s look at what this new card offers!

Welcome bonus

New cardholders will receive 10,000 points when they make their first purchase on the card. This bonus is worth $80.

The new card will earn points as follows:

  • 2 points per dollar on qualifying purchases made at participating Metro, Première Moisson and Brunet stores in Quebec, and at participating Jean Coutu stores in Quebec, Ontario and New Brunswick by swiping your Moi card and paying with your moi RBC Visa credit card

You’ll also earn your standard  1 point per dollar for showing your Moi loyalty card.

Wrapping it up

The newest co-brand card in Canada finds itself amongst big competition in the no annual fee category and I feel it falls somewhere in the middle of the pack. Its return of 0.8% to 1.6% on spending isn’t too bad. Some no fee cards are as low as 0.5% but others are as high as 2%. The card should make some in-roads primarily in the Quebec market where the Moi program has the biggest presence. Is it strong enough for some people to switch cards, probably not but I could see people adding it to their wallets just for the 2x points earn at the stores participating in the Moi program.
