Rewards Canada
Online/Digital
Rewards Canada came online in September of 2001. Founded by Patrick Sojka of Calgary, the need for Rewards Canada came from the lack of a specific Canadian site providing information on travel reward programs. There are many sites out on the web from an American perspective, only some of which barely touch upon benefits available to Canadians. Thus the beginning of Rewards Canada.
Today Rewards Canada is considered by many as the premier resource for travel rewards on the Internet and the founder Patrick Sojka as a Rewards Program expert who regularly provides interviews for Print, TV and Radio segments on travel rewards, loyalty programs, credit cards and the airline industry.
