How to pay rent using credit card and how to benefit from it ?

I have been renting for the past 6 years since I moved to Canada and I’ve come across a video on social media talking about paying rent with credit card so that you get points back. I unfortunately didn’t paid much attention to that and can’t find the video again. I am also scared of miscalculating the benefits as I am not much educated financially. I would be grateful if someone could please advise me. I am currently paying CAD 1240 as rent. Thanks a lot
