MONTREAL, Jan. 4 2024 /CNW/ – Milesopedia, the most widely used credit card comparison solution in Canada, publishes its 2024 Top Credit Cards list. This list guides Canadian consumers toward the most sensible choices based on their needs, enabling them to maximize the benefits of their credit cards and save money on their purchases.
In 2024, with the economy presenting multiple challenges, the selection and evaluation of credit cards for households is more important than ever. “Today, we are rewarding those financial institutions that have set themselves apart by offering products that meet the needs of today’s consumers. Some institutions, for example, have fine-tuned their product features to reward consumers for groceries, gas or recurring bill payments; others have enhanced their travel benefits, which have been steadily rising since the pandemic emerged,” says Jean-Maximilien Voisine, president and founder of Milesopedia. “Accumulating rewards via credit cards represents a profitable avenue that is sometimes overlooked and left to one side for lack of time and knowledge. As a result, consumers unwittingly leave money on the table,” he continues.
The Montreal-based FinTech draws on over 18,000 data points, including annual fees, welcome offers, and insurance. This exercise establishes 32 categories, making it easier for consumers to identify with a specific profile and objective.
Among the award-winning financial products, the National Bank World Elite Mastercard was again this year’s Best Travel Credit Card, as well as Best Insurance Credit Card. It was particularly appreciated by consumers in 2023, especially in these inflationary times, offering up to 5 points per dollar of purchase on eligible grocery and restaurant expenses, reimbursement of travel expenses and excellent insurance.
The CIBC Dividend® Visa Infinite* Card is once again in the Best Cash-Back Credit Card category , offering an attractive welcome bonus, reimbursement of the first year’s annual fee and 4% cash back on eligible gas, electric vehicle charging and grocery purchases.
The full list of winners, with details and conditions for each card, is available here on the milesopedia.com website.
“Since 2020, the rewards and credit card landscape has changed dramatically: the launch of the new Aeroplan program by Air Canada, the takeover of AIR MILES by BMO, the transformation of the Scene+ loyalty program following the partnership between Scotiabank, Cineplex and the Empire Group (IGA, Sobeys, etc.), and most recently, the takeover of HSBC Canada by RBC. All this should encourage consumers to re-evaluate the credit and loyalty cards in their wallets,” says Marie-Claude Ravary, Director, Customer Relations and Compliance at Milesopedia.
Given the new challenges facing Canadian media (Bill C-18, Google and Meta reaction, Bill 25, etc.), Milesopedia is positioning itself as a new source of revenue for media and content creators thanks to its white-label credit card and bank account comparison tools, while enabling them to offer their readership quality content to improve their personal finances.
After consolidating its position as number one comparator at Quebec with major players such as Protégez-vous, L’actualité and most recently Les Coops de l’information (CN2i), Milesopedia is extending its influence elsewhere in Canada through strategic collaborations with FinTech Chexy, RedFlagDeals (VerticalScope Inc.), and is in discussion with one of the country’s major English-language media.
The platform continues its mission to help Canadians maximize the rewards and benefits they earn with their credit cards, and now supports an active community of 26,000 members on its its private Facebook group to answer questions about rewards programs and financial products. Finally, the company is a member of the Canadian Consumer Rewards Coalition (CCRC) along with other major players in the industry.

In a world where the unexpected is commonplace, this partnership is designed to help travelers ensure peace of mind, so they can make the most of their experiences.

Already, Milesopedia recommends to its readers to have certain credit cards on hand that offer excellent travel insurance with reward points.

With With soNomad, everyone can travel with complete peace of mind, being fully protected.

Montreal, Quebec–(Newsfile Corp. – January 10, 2023) – With all the economic indices pointing to inflation in the new year 2023, milesopedia.com, THE bilingual reference for credit card comparison media, publishes its 2023 Best Credit Card Rankings. Since 2015, the aim of this exercise has been to help Canadian consumers make the best possible credit card choices for their needs.
With over 200 credit cards available on the Canadian market, it’s sometimes difficult to make an informed choice about which financial institution to turn to or which card to subscribe to, given the many features of each card to consider.
“With the fear of higher inflation in 2023, people will be making conservative choices, and will want to optimize their everyday spending (groceries, gas, bills, etc.) and discretionary spending (vacations, restaurants, entertainment, etc.) according to Jean-Maximilien Voisine, president and founder of Milesopedia. Credit card rewards points are a great way to save on these types of expenses, where prices have skyrocketed in recent months”.
Every consumer should have an average of two credit cards, according to Milesopedia, which recommends one credit card for day-to-day expenses and a second dedicated to trips planned during the year, to benefit from rewards and insurance.
“Even if the statistics from our comparators show that consumers are looking for cards with no annual fee, in many situations they realize, thanks to our calculators, that cards with an annual fee give them far more benefits, points and discounts year after year,” notes Étienne Werbinski, SEM Manager and Data Analyst at Milesopedia.
Milesopedia has examined the credit card offers of the major financial institutions and established its Ranking according to more than 150 criteria such as fees, welcome offer, minimum income required, number of points per category, Statement credit, insurance, airport lounge access, etc.
This year, we’ve added statistics from the dozen or so white-label credit card comparators offered on partner consumer sites such as Protégez-Vous, Dollars & Cents | L’actualité, FrançoisCharron, Educfinance, HelloSafe, Le Jeune Retraité, and more.
Milesopedia has selected the best credit cards from 32 categories. Below is a selection of these. To see the complete ranking with the characteristics and conditions of each, click here. Ranking 2023 of the Best Credit Cards in Canada.
For example, Milesopedia has chosen Best Cash Back credit card for the year 2023 the CIBC Dividend® Visa Infinite* Card. In addition to an attractive welcome bonus, including reimbursement of the first year’s annual fee, it stands out by offering 4% cash back on purchases made at service stations and grocery stores – two major areas of household expenditure in 2023.
The award for Best Travel Credit Card goes to National Bank World Elite Mastercard. It offers up to 5 points per dollar of purchase on eligible grocery and restaurant expenses, up to $150 per year in travel reimbursements, access to airport lounges, and above all, excellent travel and purchase insurance.
