Rewards Canada announces results of the second annual rankings as chosen by Canadians.
MARKHAM, ON, Nov. 8, 2012 /CNW/ - American Express Canada comes out on top once again in the second annual Rewards Canada Top Travel Rewards Credit Cards rankings as chosen by Canadians. American Express Cards were chosen as the top picks in four out of five categories. This comes a few months after Rewards Canada announced, for the fourth year in a row, its own top picks for Canada's Top Travel Rewards Credit Cards.
"We are so proud that our Cards have been recognized for the second year in a row by Canadians," said Jennifer Hawkins, Vice President of Credit and Charge Cards, American Express Canada. "We're dedicated to providing our Cardmembers with the best experience when it comes to using our Cards, and it's wonderful to see that Canadians are responding well to that."
