1 Offer Terms and Description: The 15% cash back, 0% introductory balance transfer rate, and first-year annual fee waiver offer (the “Offer”) applies only to new Scotia Momentum Visa Infinite+ credit card accounts (the “Accounts”) opened, and any additional cards issued, between July 2, 2026, and November 1, 2026 (regardless of the date you apply for the Account), subject to the terms and conditions set out below. We will waive the initial annual fees, for the first year only, for the primary card and for each additional card. The Offer may be changed, cancelled, or extended at any time, without notice, and cannot be combined with any other offer.

Description and Terms of the 15% Cash Back Offer: You will receive 15% cash back on the first $2,000 in eligible purchases charged to your new Account during the three months following its opening date (the “Promotional Period”). Eligible purchases mean purchases, minus refunds, returns, and any similar credits, and exclude payments, cash advances (including balance transfers and quasi-cash transactions), interest charges, and card and other fees. After the Promotional Period, you will earn the usual cash back on your purchases, at the regular rate (the “Program Cash Back Rate”) described in the Scotia Momentum Visa Infinite+ cash back program terms (the “Program Terms”). The 15% cash back rate for each category is the sum of the regular cash back rate (which varies by category) and the bonus cash back rate that varies during the Program Cash Back Rate (the “cash back rate”).

The cash back earned under this offer will be credited to your Account, provided it is open and in good standing on the cash back payment date.
1. Bonus Cash Back Rate: Cash back earned at the Bonus Cash Back Rate may be credited to your Account approximately 5 months following its opening date, or otherwise, in accordance with the Program Terms.
2. Regular Cash Back Rate: Cash back earned at the Program Regular Cash Back Rate may be used as described in the Program cash back.

EXAMPLE: If the Program Regular Cash Back Rate for grocery purchases and recurring payments is 4%, the Bonus Cash Back Rate will then be 11% for that purchase category, so that all eligible everyday purchases in this category will qualify for a total cash back of 15% during the Promotional Period, on the first $2,000 in purchases. If you make eligible everyday purchases at grocery stores and recurring payments totalling $2,000, the cash back credited to your Account for this category will be calculated as follows:
(1) a Bonus Cash Back of $220 (11% x $2,000), credited as an adjustment on your statement, and (2) the Regular Cash Back of $80 (4% x $2,000), which will appear on your monthly statements as it is earned.

All other program terms continue to apply during the Offer period.

Description and Terms of the 0% Introductory Balance Transfer Offer: The 0% introductory interest rate offer on balance transfers (the “Rate Offer”) applies only to eligible cash advances (including balance transfers and quasi-cash transactions, collectively referred to as “cash advances”), subject to the conditions below. This introductory rate applies for 12 months from this date (the “Promotional Period”). After the Promotional Period, the interest rate on cash advances covered by the 0% promotional rate (including any outstanding balance of such cash advances at the end of the Promotional Period) will revert to the preferred interest rate applicable to cash advances (currently 22.99%). A fee corresponding to 2% of the amount of any cash advance made during the Promotional Period applies (minimum fee of $5.00).

The Offer is subject to any cash advance limit on your Account. This Offer is also based on your approved credit limit on the date of this Offer. This means that if the sum of transferred balances exceeds the approved credit limit, balance transfers may not be processed. This Offer cannot be used to transfer a balance from another Scotiabank account, nor to make a payment or deposit to another Scotiabank account.

Cancellation of the promotional rate: If we do not receive your minimum payment by its due date shown on your statement twice in a row, you will lose the benefits of this special rate offer and your interest rates will revert to the annual rates normally applicable to your Account (currently 25.99% for purchases and 27.99% for cash advances).

Application of Payments: For residents of Quebec: In general, if one or more interest rates apply to your Account, we apply payments according to the interest rate(s) applicable to the transactions posted to your Account (from highest to lowest rate). For residents outside Quebec: In general, if you make a payment greater than the minimum amount shown on your statement, the difference is applied proportionally to the different groups of charges billed to your Account. Charges are grouped based on the interest rate applicable to them. Your payment cannot be applied to the balance of your choice. Consult your credit card agreement for more information on how payments are applied to your Account.

Description and Terms of the Annual Fee Waiver Offer: We will waive the annual fees, for the first year only, for the primary card and for each additional card issued between July 2, 2026, and November 1, 2026.

Eligibility and Exclusions: You are not eligible for this Offer if you are currently a primary or secondary holder of a Scotiabank personal credit card or have been within the last two years, including if you transfer your balance from a Scotiabank personal credit card account and if you are a Scotiabank employee. Subject to the exclusions mentioned above, holders of a Scotiabank small business credit card are eligible for this Offer. By accepting this Offer, you confirm that you meet all eligibility requirements. We reserve the right to revoke this Offer at any time if we determine that you do not meet the eligibility requirements, including after its acceptance or the opening of the Account.

Rates and Fees: The current annual fees are $120 for the primary card and $50 for each additional card (including those issued for co-account holders and additional cardholders). The current preferred annual interest rates applicable to the Account are: 20.99% on purchases and 22.99% on cash advances. Rates, fees, features, and benefits, which are described in the application disclosure, may be changed.
