Yes, I'm wondering if it would work the same way, but I would like someone to confirm that before I go ahead and get the credit card.

I logged into my Rogers MasterCard today and noticed some quite significant changes to the cash back rewards. I was wondering when this would happen and by how much. Not pleased, but not unexpected either.
March 30, 2018

Hey @57,
I logged into my Rogers MasterCard today and noticed some quite significant changes to the cash back rewards. I was wondering when this would happen and by how much. Not pleased, but not unexpected either.
The changes will start to take effect May 23rd. The prorated credit will be based on the $29 Annual fee. Were you referring to something specific in your question?

@RogersZia : I was not asking any questions in my earlier post, but I can see how my comment "I was wondering..." could be misconstrued as a question.
The "I was wondering..." was simply a comment (no question mark) that I knew the rebates were very good and I knew (long ago) that eventually the rebate amounts would be reduced, like they are with many credit cards after a period of time... I hope that is clear(er).
For this reason, it's often advantageous to get in "on the ground floor" when cards like this are first introduced, because after a period of time the "promotional rate" will be reduced.

As indicated in post 12 of this thread, the rebate percentages on Rogers Platinum MC went down on May 23, 2018.
Interestingly, Rogers have introduced a new card called "Rogers World Elite MasterCard".

This card brings the two major benefits* back to where they were:
I've ordered mine today. There are certain restrictions which are:
- Personal income of at least $80k
- or household income of at least $150k
- or spend $25k on Rogers MasterCard (per year) (We're retired and travel a lot, so this one made us eligible)
If you currently have a Rogers MC, you should call instead of applying online.
