Rewards Canada Daily Update: July 19, 2012

News, Tips & Tricks
I have already made the first update to he Cash Back Comparison Chart that was released yesterday. The update added in the Chase Amazon.ca Rewards card.

According to a comment left on my post from last summer about the removal of Foreign Transaction Fees on Canadian credit cards the MasterCard(s) issued by Sears will have their foreign transaction fees removed as of July 23. This change seem logical as the card is issued by Chase who also issues the Amazon.ca card which happened to be the first publicly available card in Canada with no FX fees. Perhaps we will even see more Chase cards lose the FX fee like the Marriott Rewards Visa. Time will only tell but hats off to Chase for bringing this U.S. Phenomenon to Canada.

In the bonus offer section we see another great offer from Carlson Hotels. This time it is closer to home (yesterday was for Asia Pacific) where you can earn bonus points and your 3rd night free at Radisson & Radisson Blu hotels in North and South America (I tested the offer for Calgary and Canmore and it works), Europe, the Middle East and Africa. The only caveat is that stay has to be paid for with an American Express card (remember, I stress this all the time as to one of the reasons you should a Visa, a MasterCard and an American Express card so that you can take advantage of offers like these!)
