so to answer no its not a trap but it used to be even better ( i made 300$ in less than one years but now with the new quote forget about making alot of money after 6 months)

and if ur realy plan to getting one dont forget to tell them that u dont want any offer from them if u don't tell them they'll call you for protection and shitt like that
 
It's down to 2% for groceries actually, but I don't find their offer is better than the Amazon.ca rewards card.

The amazon card has 1% cashback on all your purchases, 2% on amazon.ca, but it has no foreign transaction conversion fee as well. So you pay the exchange rate and that's it, saves you a shitload of cash (paypal charges like 7% foreign conversion fee and all credits cards charge 2.5% at least).

Good card IMHO but not better than the MBNA Smartcash. Even if you have to pay 2.5% foreign conversion, I end up earning a lot more by having 3% on gas/groceries VS 1%.

Down to 2% now though.
And there's a cap to your cashback, unlike the amazon. There was a review abotu the amazon card in lapresse 2 months ago, they said it was the best card in canada. I'm sold to it, the only reason I don;t like MBNA is because they have doubtful pratices in general as a bank, they'll sell your info to anyone and spam you shitless, and they chnaged their cashback terms with less rewards a a 1000 dollars/month cap or something. Still is up to each person's own taste though

Has not changed for me yet when I look at my cashback history.
 
The SmartCash card is dead now with the new cashbacks %.
Go see the other threads we have going on, Capital One Aspire Cash is where it's at now.

Damn ok, my girlfriend is making the groceries, so she'll get 2%, not me (no way I have over 400$ in gas/month). Might switch to Amazon CC then.

EDIT : Interesting read on the Amazon CC from Chase here : http://forums.redflagdeals.com/merged-new-chase-visa-amazon-1160919/

It's still not that bad for a free card, but I agree.

I'm still pondering if I should get the Amazon card... The only thing stopping me is that to get the 20$ cash back, you need to spend 2000$, which will take a while VS getting 50$ cash back on the MBNA which I use for everything so the cash backs come in faster...
