Rewards math assumes you pay your balance in full every month — interest charges quickly exceed any rewards value.
Data caveat: Issued by Fairstone Bank of Canada (formerly Duo Bank). Rates, fees, and the 3%/1% earn are sourced from Fairstone's official cardholder agreement and disclosure statement plus the September 2025 program relaunch; the card is a World Mastercard tier, not 'World Elite'.
