5. if your total spent on all other purchases is more than $3,000, you'll earn 1% cash back on your Costco.ca purchases during that same period;

7. In early May, you’ll receive an email from Capital One confirming you made a qualifying purchase (as long as your purchases have posted).
8. Your bonus cash back will be added to your cash back balance in May 2021.
9. You will receive your 2021 annual cash back, including this bonus cash back, in January 2022.

BTW, based on other people's experiences before, it is possible that you can earn this bonus when you buy Costco Shop Card online with the Capital One Costco MasterCard.

Capital One may discontinue the IHG Rewards Club World MC

There is a online rumor that Capital One may discontinue the IHG Rewards Club World MasterCard in the near future.  From my point of view, this is actually a quite good card.

IHG REWARDS CLUB WORLD MASTERCARD:

• Annual fee $120 (authorized user is free)
• 60,000 bonus IHG Rewards Club points with your first purchase
• 5 points for every $1 spent at any IHG hotel
• 2 points for every $1 on all other purchases
• 5,000 bonus points for every $10,000 you spend 
• Platinum Elite status for the life of the account
• World MasterCard benefits, including all types of travel insurance

With IHG Platinum status, you can get good benefits from IHG group (see table below). Plus, if you spend $30000 per year on this card, you will get $30000*2+5000*3=75,000 IHG points. These points are Elite Qualifying Points. With that, you can reach IHG Rewards Club’s new top membership level: Spire Elite, which can bring 100% bonus points on stays and an exclusive Choice Benefit of either receiving 25,000 points or upgrading a friend or family member to Platinum status.

Therefore, you can get 100,000 points + SPIRE Elite membership on this card every year. If you use this 100,000 points on PointsBreak, you can get 20 nights in IHG hotels. This is a quite amazing return rate, as long as you can spend at least $30,000 per year on this card (as this is a MasterCard, you can use it in Costco).
