Are you interested in?
I have had several shocking moments with the credit card. You have to read the small print. And you have to pay it off to the dime every month. I had a balance of $17,000ish in a high spending month (I use it for work), and cash flow was low but I made sure that I paid $15,000 (worked hard at this) by the due date, so interest would be minimal.
Silly me.
Interest was charged on the full $17,000ish, this is how this card works. If you pay even $1 short, you might as well have paid nothing, interest will be charged on the full amount.
I usually pay my cards in full, but sometimes you just can't. So this card is... risky. More importantly, it's unethical.
BOOO Westjet Mastercard.
I have had this card for 10 years. Always pay off the balance so I don't care what the interest is. In addition to accumulating WestJet dollars to apply to flights you get a free checked bag on all WJ flights and an annual $99 companion flight anywhere in North America. These perks make this card worth the annual fee.

like the westjet points and the compnion flight once per year - think the points earned should be more.. lower interest rates.
the application was really easy and fast. To redeem points are really easy
Yes I am happy with the rates and credit limit. The rewards for westjet flights is the main reason to use

Credit card rates are horrible in Canada... Not a big fan of credit cards but this one is ok.
To activate this card attempted 6 times. They do not deliver this card you have to go to the bank to pick it up ( waste of valuable time). At the bank they set it up wrong, so I returned to the bank to get it rectified. Was told they couldn't help me, I needed to call. I called telephone banking twice- was on hold for 20 minutes each time. Couldn't wait so I hung up. Received a call from RBC .... "Hi we were wondering why you haven't activated your card?" In the end, no one helped, I finally got my card activated on my own through the website. Now I am trying to get the app working, app matches the activation process... FRUSTRATING! I will see if this card serves me this year, only because I want the Westjet rewards, if this is how the activity on this card is going to be I will not be renewing. Cardholder less than 30 days and already painful!
