Read moreThe RBC® Cash Back Mastercardǂ is currently offering a welcome bonus of 5% extra cash back on your first $2,000 in purchases in the first six months^, worth up to $100 in cash back on top of the card's regular earn rates. To qualify, apply by February 2, 2027.
This is a no-fee card, and supplementary cards are also free.
The RBC® Cash Back Mastercard earns 2% cash back† on grocery store purchases, 1% cash back† on gas, EV charging, transit, and rideshare purchases, and 0.5% cash back† on all other purchases, including pre-authorized bill payments.
There's no annual cap in any category, so cash back is unlimited†. Cash back isn't earned on cash advances, balance transfers, fees, or interest charges.
Until December 1, 2026, you can request your cash back as a statement credit by calling RBC once your balance reaches $25, or let it post automatically in December.
From December 2, 2026, you'll be able to check your balance and redeem at any time, with a minimum of $1, through RBC Online Banking or the RBC Mobile app, or by calling in†. The automatic December redemption goes away at that point, so you choose when to redeem.
