Savings on annual fees for the first year:

The annual fees for the card will be refunded for the first year for the main cardholder and for the first authorized user added to the account. To receive the annual fee refund for the first authorized user, they must be added on the account opening application. Annual fees will appear as a charge and credit on the 4th statement, at the latest, after your account is opened.

The primary cardholder is responsible for all charges to the account, including those incurred by authorized users.

Bonus rewards points:

The 35,000 rewards points given under this promotion will be credited to the credit card account in a single payment no later than the 5^th statement following the account opening:

Platinum and or World Elite^TMMastercard^TMcredit cards: get 35,000 rewards points if $3,000 in net purchases are charged to the credit card account within the first three months following account opening.

The account must be in good standing at the time the annual fees are refunded and bonus rewards points are applied.

The net purchases charged to your card are calculated over a period of three months, starting at account opening. For example, if the account is opened October 15,2021 the account holder will have until January 15, 2022 to charge the required amount of purchases to the account and obtain the bonus rewards points. For example, if the account is opened June 15, 2022, the account holder will have until September 15, 2022 to charge the required amount of purchases to the account and obtain the bonus rewards points.

Net purchases refer to the amount in purchases charged to the account less returns and refunds. Annual fees, balance transfers, cash advances (including transactions that can be converted directly to cash, such as money orders, traveller’s cheques and gambling transactions), interest charges and any other fees and adjustments are not considered purchases and are therefore not included in the calculation.

Eligibility and terms and conditions

This promotion is intended for individuals who do not have a National Bank Mastercard credit card and have not held a National Bank credit card within the last 24 months. There is a limit of 35,000 rewards points per eligible credit card account during the promotional period, regardless of the number of credit cards associated with the account. It cannot be combined with any other National Bank credit card promotion. Employees of National Bank and its subsidiaries and entities are not eligible for this promotion. The promotion may be modified, extended or cancelled, without prior notice, at any time.

*Grocery and Restaurant: The amount of points earned on grocery and restaurant purchases depends on the total gross monthly amount charged to the credit card account, regardless of the purchase category. You will earn 5 points for every dollar in eligible grocery and restaurant purchases The accumulation of 5 points per dollar of purchase is valid until a total of $2,500 in gross monthly purchases is charged to the account. After that, you will earn 2 points per dollar in eligible grocery and restaurant purchases. The total gross monthly amount is calculated based on your monthly billing period. Grocery purchases include any purchase made at a store that primarily sells food, i.e., grocery store, delicatessen, supermarket, greengrocer or specialty food store. Ready-to-eat meal services and meal delivery services are eligible. This definition excludes purchases made at retail stores and big box stores whose core business is the sale of non-food items. Certain merchants may sell products and services that appear identical or similar to those sold by eligible merchants, or may be separate merchants located on the same premises as eligible merchants, but are classified in different categories by Mastercard. For purchases at other merchants, you will only earn regular rewards points. Restaurant purchases include purchases at a restaurant, fast food restaurant, bar, nightclub or pub.

Gas and Electric Vehicle Charging: To earn 2 points per dollar in purchases, you will need to purchase gas or an electrical vehicle charge from a service station or from certain big-box stores. Certain merchants may sell products and services that appear identical or similar to those sold by eligible merchants, or may be separate merchants located on the same premises as eligible merchants, but are classified in different categories by Mastercard. For purchases at other merchants, you will only earn regular rewards points.

Recurring Bill: Recurring bill payments are defined as monthly or regular payments automatically charged by a merchant to your National Bank World Elite Mastercard credit card. Not all merchants offer recurring bill payments, and not all recurring payments are considered recurring bill payments. Certain payments therefore may not entitle you to earn more points.

À la Carte Travel: To earn 2 points per dollar in purchases, you must make your eligible purchases via the À la carte TravelTM Agency section of our À la carte RewardsTM site.

Other purchaseFor example, if each month you charge $400 in groceries, $200 in gas, $100 in recurring bill payments and $150 in other purchases to your card, your $850 in purchases will earn you 2,750 points, as follows: 2,000 points for grocery purchases (since the total gross monthly amount is $850, i.e., under $2,500), 400 points for gas purchases, 200 points for recurring bill payments and 150 points for other purchases.
