Editor's Review

BMO® Rewards® Mastercard®* is a no-fee, travel card that comes with an excellent offer for first-time buyers: 10.000 bonus air miles and a 0.99% introductory interest rate for the first 9 months. This card has a standard interest rate of 20.99%. If you're looking for a card that gives you discounts, rewards and insurance, then this is the right card for you.

 

With this card, you get 1 point for every $1 you spend on merchandise, donations, hotels, flights, investments and gift cards. Add to that the 10,000 bonus points and the 25% discount at both Alamo and National car rental agencies all across the globe and you've got a very good rewards card.

 

With BMO® Rewards® Mastercard®*, you can add unlimited cardholders with no extra fees. Additionally, you get purchase protection, travel accident insurance and extended warranty. An extra perk with this card is the 15% admission to all Cirque du Soleil tours in Canada and 20% in Las Vegas.

 

To stay safe, you can add features like credit alerts, roadside assistance and credit card balance protection.
