Capital One

Capital One Canada offers Canadians a variety of MasterCard credit cards to fit your financial requirements. They are one of the only credit card companies who offer purchasers a guaranteed card to help you establish or re-establish your credit history. This is incredibly useful if you are new to Canada or are applying for your first credit card. If you already have a decent credit history, you can apply for their rewards, no fee or low rate credit cards. Unfortunately, Capital One credit cards are not available to residents in QC, NT, NU, or YT.
