What critics say

Other reviewers on this card

  • “Taking the Canadian market by storm, the Capital One Quicksilver World Mastercard is a strong rewards card with unlimted 1% to 3% cash back earn rates, no annual fees and no FX fees - along with some insurance benefits. If you want a no strings attached no fee, no FX fee card - then look no further than this card or the World Elite version if you meet the income requirements for the latter card.”
