Here's your Rewards Canada Daily update! Your daily dose (or near daily dose) of loyalty program, credit card and travel news, bonuses, deals and more. This update is brought to you by the HSBC World Elite Mastercard which is currently offering a welcome bonus of up to 70,000 bonus points and no annual fee in the first year!
There are several credit cards in Canada that award 5x points on purchases at select merchants but surprisingly those 5x points aren't all equal. We've updated our very popular article When earning 5x points isn't the same as earning 5x points - a loyalty lesson as the negative changes from BMO kicked in last month and now we have the positive change from American Express that happened yesterday. Read that post here!

Rewards Canada reader Ian commented with a great idea for the American Express Gold Rewards Card in our post about tweaking the card:
"No FX fees ? Get this ball rolling in Canada - it ain’t going to be the big 5 banks .. they work together so we need the other major players to step up!"
This would be the ideal card for Amex to implement their first ever public No FX fee benefit. Several reasons why is the card is considered a travel card and No FX fees go hand in hand with travel plus I feel that in terms of a revenue hit putting No FX fees on the Gold Rewards Card it would be less so than offering it on a card like the Cobalt Card. Read more about our thoughts on tweaking the Gold Rewards Card here.
