Great Canadian Rebates is currently offering $12 cash back if you get your credit score through TransUnion. Usually, getting your score means paying $19.95 which isn’t a great deal but from now until February 28th, your credit score only costs $1 AND you get $12 cash back, netting you $11 for free!
If you don’t know what Great Canadian Rebates and cashback sites are in general, take a read through my introduction to them. I promise you. It’s completely legitimate and you will definitely get your money.
Getting and understanding your credit score is the cornerstone of Travel Hacking because it allows you to understand whether or not you will qualify for the cards we really want, like the American Express Platinum, Platinum Business, Gold and Gold Business. For a full breakdown of what credit scores mean and how they are calculated, take a read through this article.
The Deal
There’s a promotion to get your credit score for $1 for the first 7 days. After the first 7 days, you will be billed $19.95 per month so be sure to cancel your subscription after you get your score. Even if you cancel your subscription within the 7 days, you will still qualify and be paid the $12 cash back from Great Canadian Rebates.
This offer is NOT AVAILABLE to Residents of Quebec.
