Tangerine Cashback Categories
Cardmembers can choose up to three 2% categories to maximize their unlimited cash back on their most frequent purchases, such as groceries or gas. You can change them to match your spending habits every 90 days. The new ‘Foreign Currency spend’ category can be valuable for the casual traveller looking to offset the typical 2.5% FX fee. For a no-annual-fee card, this is an impressive perk.
Whether you’re just beginning your rewards journey or looking to streamline your wallet, Tangerine credit cards prove that you don’t need to chase points to get meaningful returns. Unlimited 2% cash-back (deposited monthly) on up to 3 categories is a compelling reason to hold the card for your household expenses.
