Accuracy is important to us so this article has gone through a thorough 3-stage review process and fact-checked by our team.

There are plenty of reasons for adding a no fee card to your wallet. Whether you:

  • don't spend enough to justify an annual fee, or
  • just want a no fee card to pair with a more premium card...

...if you're looking for a no fee cash back card, the National Bank mycredit Mastercard is a good place to start.

Earn cash back on all your spending

You'll get 1% cash back on all your recurring bill and restaurant purchases and 0.5% on all other purchases, with no limits on the amount of cash back you can earn.

Enjoy your cash back rewards every month

One area where this card really stands out is that you're not forced to wait around for a whole year to get your cash back rewards. Instead, it's automatically applied as a statement credit every billing cycle.

Although, your welcome bonus rewards won't be paid out until after it is all earned – on your 4th billing cycle.

Complimentary insurance

Not only does this no fee card have rewards and a nice welcome bonus, but it also comes with the following complimentary insurance:

  • Mobile device protection: Mobile device protection is a very rare type of credit card insurance that will protect your cell phone against theft and damages for up to 2 years after the date you purchased it.
  • Manufacturer's warranty: Extended warranty will double the manufacturer's warranty for up to 1 additional year.
  • Purchase protection: Purchase protection will give you 90 days of peace of mind for your new purchases. If they are lost, stolen, or damaged within 90 days of purchasing them, this insurance will reimburse you the cost of replacing them.

Not sure this card is for you?

If you're looking to earn even more cash back on all of your purchases, take a look at the National Bank ECHO Cashback Mastercard.

Although it has an annual fee of $30, you'll earn 1.5% back on all your gas, grocery, and online purchases (the only card in Canada that gives you bonuses on all your online shopping) and 1% cash back on all other purchases.

Key benefits

  • Protect your mobile device with included insurance while earning cash back rewards for no annual fee.
  • Earn 1% cash back on all recurring bill payments and restaurant purchases.
  • Earn 0.5% on all other purchases.
  • Get 3 different kinds of insurance, including Mobile Device Protection.
  • To take advantage of National Bank’s welcome offer, you must not currently hold a personal National Bank Mastercard credit card or have held one in the last 24 months.
