With the new year upon us, I found a great offer from Scotiabank for their first year free cash back Scotia Momentum Visa Infinite Card.
Earn 10% cash back on all purchases for the first 3 months (up to $2,000 in total purchases). Plus, no annual fee in the first year, including on supplementary cards. A welcome offer value of $350 (annual fee is usually $150).
There is a reason this is one of the best cash back credit cards in Canada (especially with no annual fee):
Grocery store purchases
Earn 4% for every $1 you spend on grocery store purchases.
Includes: grocery stores and supermarkets.
Bill payments
Earn 4% for every $1 you spend on recurring bill payments.
Includes: pre-authorized payments setup to occur on a regular schedule (daily, monthly or annually).
Examples: insurance premiums, utilities, gym memberships and more.
Subscription payments
Earn 4% for every $1 you spend on recurring subscription purchases.
Includes: pre-authorized payments setup to occur on a regular schedule (daily, monthly or annually).
Examples: popular video or music streaming, meal kit delivery, lifestyle boxes and more.
2% Gas and daily transit
Includes: gas stations, paying at the pump, buses, taxis, trains, rideshare, and more.
Another great reason to get this card is for the free premium insurance that comes with it:
New Mobile Device Insurance
Protect your new cell phones, smartphones, or tablets purchased using your Card on or after August 1, 2019. This is one of the few Cash Back Visa Infinite credit cards with this insurance benefit.
Trip Cancellation and Trip Interruption Insurance
