I also like how you can request the cashback once it hits $50.Originally Posted by angel_wing0
Same thoughts
I think this is actually targeted to compete with the momentum. Being platinum and NO annual fee helps.
This is more like American credit cards, nice to see something like this.

However fee wise, Canadian cards are still a lot better. There are so many hidden fees on US cards,For Example: A Payment 1 day late will incurr a penalty fee or if you have a 0% BT offer if you don't use the card for purchases within 6 months (and pay interest at 22%) they will revoke the offer..Last edited by tkyoshi; Apr 5th, 2009 at 10:04 PM.

Bah. Just applied for Premier Rewards last week. I guess I'll have to call in and change it after activating the card, unless I somehow luck out and they send this new card instead.

Nice, finally some cashback competition above 1%.
For sure gonna go for this card once it hits the web. Was thinking about the Scotia card but I'm a low spender so didn't know if the reward would trump the annual fee.
PC card not giving me many reasons to stay with them, quite surprising that they don't give more than the 1% at their stores. This one has the better benefits too. Reply With Quote

MBNA is just simply awesome. I have decided to convert mine, but I was advised to do the conversion from SPG to SmartCash on the 11th, a day after my billing cut off so I wont lose my over 2k starpoints to be earned for this month. They said I should have no problem converting to the new smartcash card from SPG. YEY!

The Scotiabank Momentum just got owned...
This card's a no brainer if you have the Premier Rewards. I currently use PCF MC for Tim Hortons and No Frills (because it has Paypass). With 3% cashback at supermarket, that beats PC points by a mile! Now I can say goodbye to the PCF MC. I just hope it has Paypass like the Shoppers Optimum!
Going to make sure I give them a call tomorrow to switch over. Reply With Quote

This card finally sounds like all the American credit card that are offered in the states. Good see these types of cards are coming.
