Here are the Rewards Canada Top 5 Travel Credit Card Sign Up offers
for the month of June 2021! This is not a 'best' credit card
list like our Top Travel Rewards Credit Card rankings but instead a look at cards that have very good 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.
This month we see three first year free cards on the list
The
same five cards are on the list this month as last month however we have now adjusted our minimum valuation of Aeroplan points to 1.5 cents each from the previous 1.2 cents. This puts the minimum value of the welcome bonus for the TD and CIBC Aeroplan cards on the list to $600. That is, $300 worth of points and $300 for the Buddy Pass. The Amex Aeroplan card jumps to $405. Now remember that's a minimum valuation, for example if you choose to convert the Buddy Pass to Aeroplan points you'll get 30,000 points which makes the entire welcome bonus for either of the TD or CIBC Aeroplan cards hit $750!
Editor's Note:
As travel is curtailed right now these offers are more
forward looking and can and should be used towards your long term
travel plans - whether that's later this year, next year or even beyond.
Getting the cards now allows you to achieve the sign up bonuses as you
wish and then continue to spend to build up those points and miles
balances to make those future vacations that much better. - Or in the
case of all the cards except the WestJet Mastercard you can also
look at cash back or cash back equivalents like gift cards from each
program if you are looking at short term financial help. If you are
going for the latter focus on the cards that have no fee in the first
year so that you can maximize your value.
Remember as well that you will find this list smack dab in the middle of the Rewards Canada homepage for
easy reference!
