To the point Following its integration into the Scene+ program in summer 2023, Home Hardware now offers a co-branded credit card in partnership with Scene+ and Scotiabank.

1,100 Home Hardware stores joined Scene+

Scene+ is booming! After conquering the Empire Group banners (IGA, Sobeys, etc.), it’s now the turn of Home Hardware DIY and home improvement stores.

In September 2022, Home Hardware announced its partnership with the Scene+ loyalty program. In Quebec, it has been in force since August 14, 2023. The Atlantic Provinces were the first to benefit, as of July 31, 2023.

Now, all 1,100 Home Hardware stores in Canada have joined the Scene+ program since :

  • August 14, 2023 in Quebec
  • July 31, 2023 in the Atlantic Provinces
  • August 8, 2023 in Western Canada
  • and August 21, 2023 in Ontario

Scene+ points accumulation at Home Hardware

Previously, Home Hardware was an Aeroplan partner, but it was only possible to earn Aeroplan points in-store. You couldn’t redeem Aeroplan points at Home Hardware. It’s different with Scene+.

All you need to do is swipe your Scene+ membership card at the in-store checkout or enter the membership number when shopping online.

You’ll earn 50 Scene+ points for every $50 spent on :

  • Home Hardware stores
  • Home Building Centre
  • Home Hardware Building Centre
  • Online at homehardware.ca
  • and participating Home Furniture stores in Canada

Earn double Scene+ points! When you shop at Home Hardware with the Scotiabank® Scene+™ Visa* Card, you’ll also get:

  • 2 Scene+ points for every $1 charged to the account

There will also be points promotions for the purchase of certain targeted products.

New Scotia® Home Hardware PRO Visa* Business Card

The new Scotia® Home Hardware PRO Visa* Business Card makes its debut, a card designed for construction and renovation professionals. However, it’s not the most advantageous in terms of Scene+ points earnings at Home Hardware since it accumulates 1 Scene+ point per dollar spent, while the Scotiabank® Scene+™ Visa* Card earns 2 points per dollar.

The advantages of the Scotia® Home Hardware PRO Visa* Business Cardlie mainly in helping you manage your business:

  • 21-day interest-free grace period on new purchases
  • Free Visa SavingsEdge membership
  • Discounts of up to 25% on base rate for car rental (in Canada and the U.S.)

The Scotia® Home Hardware PRO Visa* Business Cardalso offers a welcome bonus of 15,000 points ($150 value) after spending $1,500 on eligible purchases at Home Hardware (and its Scene+ participating stores) within the first three months. Also worth noting, the card has no annual fee. Discover our strategy for maximizing the use of this card with the Scene+ program in this article.

Redeem Scene+ points at Home Hardware

Scene+ points are redeemed at the same rate as all other Scene+ points.

Every 1,000 Scene+ points earns $10 in discount at Home Hardware stores. The maximum exchange is $500 per transaction.

Bottom Line

With this new partner, Scene+ is now present in more than 7,000 stores across Canada:

To compete fully with PC Optimum, all that’s left is for Scene+ to attract a big banner of gas stations!
