Review by

The National Bank of Canada's ECHO Cashback Mastercard has proven to be a wise choice for me. I appreciate the structure of cashback - 1.5% on gas, groceries, and online purchases, and 1% on all other eligible purchases. This has boosted my annual cashback amount to a substantial level.

The application process is straightforward, and the eligibility criteria are reasonable. One significant advantage is the ability to apply cashback directly to the credit card account once I've earned $10 cashback. This is a much more efficient and user-friendly process compared to other cashback cards I've used.

Lastly, the fraud protection feature with Mastercard's Zero Liability policy adds a layer of security I appreciate. It's reassuring to know that I won't be liable for any unauthorized transactions. With all these features, the ECHO Cashback Mastercard stands as a highly recommended choice.
