MBNA offers over two dozen Mastercard credit cards to meet your needs, with a diverse selection of rewards to choose from.
Low interest and balance transfer credit cards
MBNA is most known for their low interest and balance transfer credit cards.Ā MBNA offers two low interest credit cards that stand out for their rock bottom purchase interest rates; perfect for cardholders who tend to carry a revolving balance month-to-month and want to save on fees. The MBNA True Line Mastercard ($0 annual fee) has a purchase interest rate of 12.99%, among the lowest fixed interest rates of any no fee card in Canada. Meanwhile, the MBNA True Line Gold carries an annual fee of $39 but offers a considerably lower interest rate of 8.99%, which is less than half the purchase interest rate of 19.99% - 20.99% charged by most conventional credit cards. On top of this, the MBNA True Line Mastercard has an amazing welcome offers for those who have credit card debt - earn a 0% promotional annual interest rate for 12 months on balance transfers completed within 90 days of opening the account.
Cash back and rewards points
MBNA offers a few cash back credit cards and travel point credit cards. The MBNA Smart Cash World Mastercard lets you earn earn 5% Cash Back on eligible gas and grocery purchases for the first 6 months (until the total gas and grocery purchases in the applicable month reaches $500) , and 2% cash back thereafter. Youāll also earn 1% cash back on all other purchases at the cost of a below-average annual fee of just $39. The MBNA Smart Cash Platinum Plus is a no fee alternative which earns similar rewards on gas and groceries as the aforementioned World Mastercard but just 0.5% on everything else.
With the no fee MBNA Rewards Platinum Mastercard, you can earn up to 2 MBNA Rewards points for every $1 you spend on gas, groceries, and restaurants (up to $5,000 annually per category), and 1 point per $1 on everything else. The premium MBNA Rewards World Elite Mastercard gives you more earning potential with a flat and unlimited 2 MBNA Rewards points per $1 on everything you buy (which happens to make it one of the most lucrative rewards cards to use when shopping at Costco).
MBNA Rewards Points values will vary depending on what you redeem for. 1 point = 1 cent in travel rewards (from any airline booked on the MBNA Rewards website), 1 point = 0.5 cents in cash back, or 1 point = 0.85 - 0.98 cents when redeemed for e-gifts. You can also use points to order merchandise from the MBNA Rewards catalogue, though values can vary considerably from one item to another.

Are you an avid online shopper? MBNA partnered with Canada's largest online retailer to launch the Amazon.ca Rewards Mastercard, which carries no annual fee, earns accelerated rewards on Amazon purchases as well as for Amazon Prime Members, and offers bonuses points on purchases made in non-Canadian currencies to offset the card's foreign transaction fees. The Amazon.ca Rewards Mastercard earns Amazon points which are redeemed automatically in increments of 2,000 points for a $20 for Amazon gift card.
