TORONTO — Rogers flanker brand chatr today launched two new credit cards — the chatr Secured Mastercard and chatr Mastercard — which are designed to help Canadian residents participate in a Covid-19 and post-pandemic digital economy, says the company.
“Now more than ever, Canadians are moving to digital to make their purchases,” said Shailendra Gujarati, vice-president of chatr, in the news release. “In a world where contactless payments and ecommerce are growing, it’s vital that everyone living in Canada has access to the digital economy whether they have credit history or not. The new chatr credit cards ensure that all Canadian residents can have access to the products and services they need, while helping them build or rebuild their credit to meet their financial goals, without sacrificing rewards.”
The chatr Secured Mastercard guarantees approval to eligible customers, subject to certain conditions, and is available for a $5 monthly fee. Security funds are required to get started. It is one of the only secured credit cards in Canada to offer customer rewards, including 1% cash back on purchases from chatr and 0.5% cash back on all other eligible purchases.
For customers with established credit, the chatr Mastercard is available with no annual fee and no security funds required. It offers 3% cash back on chatr purchases and 1% cash back on all other eligible purchases. Cardholders will also receive a $25 welcome bonus in cash back rewards when they make a purchase with the card within the first 90 days.
Both new cards are from Rogers Bank. For more information, please visit chatrmobile.com/mastercard.
