Scotiabank Passport Visa Infinite + – Travel Emergency Medical Insurance Extension

Cardholders under the age of 65 receive Travel Emergency Medical Insurance coverage for the first 25 consecutive days of a trip. For those aged 65 and over, the period is reduced to the first 3 consecutive days.

Will your trip be longer than 25 days? you can extend your medical insurance with Manulife, the insurance provider. If you meet the conditions, you can take advantage of the insurance for the entire duration of your trip, and only have to pay for the number of days in excess of the 25-day period. The card’s certificate of insurance specifies that this extension must be purchased before you leave your province of residence, from Manulife at 1-877-222-7342 or online (see the tutorial below). If you are 65 or older, it applies beyond the first 3 days.

I always use this extension option for my trips that are longer than 25 days. Rather than purchasing insurance for the entire trip, I just pay for the days beyond the coverage period.

During my last two-month trip to Colombia, I spent 63 days outside Canada. Since my Scotiabank Passport Visa Infinite + provided coverage for the first 25 days, I extended my coverage with Manulife.

The same scenario occurred during my trip to Ecuador, which lasted 36 days; I was able to extend my insurance and only pay for the 11 days in excess.

Extend Your Travel Insurance – Tutorial for Extending Coverage

Here are the steps you need to take to extend the medical coverage of your Scotiabank Passport Visa Infinite +* Card and benefit from travel insurance for more than 25 days:

The first step is to visit the Pourmeproteger.com website. Then select “Travel insurance” and click on “Get a quote”.

Secondly, it is essential to select “Canadians who wish to add a supplement to an existing plan”, so that you only pay for days beyond the period already covered.

Then add “25”, which represents the duration of coverage under the current plan (i.e. the Scotiabank Passport Visa Infinite +).

Then fill in the rest of the form with your personal details, including where you’ll be travelling (Canada, U.S. or International) and your departure and arrival dates. Once you have added this information, click on “Continue” to obtain the plan price for the days not included in the 25-day period.

Once you’ve selected the plan, you’ll be given the option of an Add-on. You will then be introduced to the eligibility criteria for the plans.

Then you’ll be presented with a quote summary, where you will be asked to verify the accuracy of the information you have provided. Once verified, proceed to the payment page.

You can use the credit card of your choice to pay – it doesn’t have to be your Scotiabank Passport Visa Infinite +* Card. Once the payment has been made, you will be taken to the confirmation page, and an e-mail will be sent to you allowing you to access your insurance contract.

Extending Your Travel Insurance – Savings and Alternatives

Is extended medical coverage worth it for Scotiabank Passport Visa Infinite + cardholders? The short answer is: yes and no, depending on your personal situation and your trip.

For each trip of more than 25 days, I take the time to examine the price offered by Manulife and then compare it with the prices of other insurers. For my last trip to Ecuador, I only needed to pay for 11 extra days, which made it much more economical to extend with Manulife.

However, for my 69-day trip to Brazil, I had to purchase the equivalent of 44 days of extras. After obtaining quotes from other insurers, I realized that the only company that offered me a better price for the entire trip was soNomad! A full 69 days of coverage cost me about $20 less than a 44-day extension with Manulife!

I was surprised at how competitive soNomad‘s prices were, so I opted for this insurance for my trip to Brazil. From now on, I’ll always check at least between Manulife and soNomad to see which option is cheaper.

Bottom Line

The Scotiabank Passport Visa Infinite + offers excellent insurance for frequent travellers and digital nomads, with an option to extend emergency medical coverage that’s ideal for long trips. Combined with the absence of conversion fees for my long stays abroad, and the six free airport lounge visits, the Scotiabank Passport Visa Infinite + offers benefits that keep it in my wallet year after year.

However, it’s worth checking whether soNomad offers a better price.

As with all insurance, it’s important to check your eligibility for each category when planning and booking your trip (accommodation, flights, car rental, transportation, etc.). Charging these purchases to the correct credit card will ensure that you are covered. If something goes wrong, it will make all the difference.

1 Offer description and conditions: The 25,000 Scene+ points offer (the « offer ») applies only to new Scotiabank Passport Visa Infinite +* Card credit card accounts (the « accounts ») opened between August 4, 2026 and November 1, 2026 (regardless of the date you apply for the account) subject to the conditions below. The offer may be modified, cancelled or extended at any time without notice, and it cannot be combined with any other offer.

In addition, as a Scotiabank Passport Visa Infinite +* Cardholder, you are eligible for an annual bonus of 10,000 Scene+ points if you charge at least $40,000 in eligible everyday purchases to your Scotiabank Passport Visa Infinite +* Card account over the course of one year. Conditions apply; see below for more details.

Description and conditions of the 25,000 bonus Scene+ points offer: To be eligible for the 25,000 bonus Scene+ points offer (« 25,000 bonus points »), you must charge at least $2,000 in total eligible purchases to your account within the first three months following the account opening date.

Conditions for the annual 10,000 Scene+ points bonus:
As a Scotiabank Passport Visa Infinite +* Card credit cardholder, you can earn an annual bonus of at least 10,000 Scene+ points (the « annual points bonus ») if you charge at least $40,000 in eligible purchases to your account over the course of one year (12-month period). The annual period begins on the account opening date; a new period starts again every twelve months thereafter. If you replace another Scene+-eligible credit card with the Scotiabank Passport Visa Infinite +* Card (i.e., it is not a new card or an additional card), the opening date of your original account will be carried over to your new Scotiabank Passport Visa Infinite +* Card account and your annual period under this offer will begin on the next anniversary date of your original account opening. For example, if you originally opened a Scotiabank Gold American Express^® Card account on January 15, 2022 and you switch to the Scotiabank Passport Visa Infinite +* Card on July 15, 2025, your annual period under the 10,000 Scene+ points annual bonus offer will begin on January 15, 2026 (your next anniversary date) and a new period will start again on January 15 each year thereafter. You will earn 2,000 bonus Scene+ points for each additional $10,000 in purchases made during the same year once you have reached the $40,000 annual purchase threshold.

Eligible purchases means purchases, less refunds, returns and any other similar credits, and excludes payments, cash advances (including balance transfers and quasi-cash transactions), interest charges, as well as card fees and other fees.

Fulfillment of the annual points bonus: Bonus points will be credited within approximately eight weeks after you become eligible for a bonus, provided the account is open and in good standing. In the case of a joint account with a primary borrower and a co-borrower, bonus points will be credited as follows: (i) the 25,000 bonus points and the annual points bonus will be credited to the Scene+ account linked to the account of the borrower who made the transaction that reached the eligible purchase threshold ($2,000, or $40,000) within the appropriate timeframe (the first three months, or the first 12 months). If an additional cardholder makes the transaction that reaches the eligible purchase threshold for the 25,000 bonus points, or the annual points bonus, the bonus points will be credited to the Scene+ account linked to the primary borrower’s account. It is possible to transfer points between the Scene+ accounts of a primary borrower, a co-borrower or an additional cardholder by contacting Scene+. An account is in good standing if it is not past due, there is no over-limit, and the cardholder(s) have complied with the terms of the Revolving Credit Agreement that applies to the account. All other program conditions continue to apply during the offer period.

Offer eligibility and exclusions: You cannot take advantage of the offer if you are currently a primary or secondary cardholder of a Scotiabank personal credit card or have been one in the past two years, including if you transfer your balance from an existing Scotiabank personal credit card account, and if you are a Scotiabank employee. Subject to the exclusions mentioned above, small business credit cardholders are eligible for this offer.

Rates and fees: The annual fees are $150 for the primary card, $0 for the first additional card and $50 for each additional card thereafter (including those issued to joint account holders and additional cardholders). The preferred annual interest rates applicable to the account are as follows: 20.99% on purchases and 22.99% on cash advances (including balance transfers and quasi-cash transactions). The rates, fees, and features and benefits, which are described in the disclosure statement accompanying the application, may be changed.

Point accumulation on grocery and restaurant spending depends on the total gross monthly amount charged to the credit card account, across all categories. Earn 5 points per dollar spent on eligible grocery and restaurant purchases. The 5 points per dollar accumulation is valid for the first $2,500 of gross monthly purchases charged to the account. Beyond this amount, eligible grocery and restaurant spending will earn 2 points per dollar. The calculation of the gross monthly purchase amount is based on monthly billing. A grocery purchase means a purchase made at a merchant whose primary business is selling food, such as a grocery store, delicatessen, supermarket, fruit store, or specialty food store. Meal kit subscriptions and meal delivery services are eligible. Therefore, this definition excludes, among others, retail stores and big-box stores whose primary business is selling non-food items. Some merchants may sell products or services identical or similar to those of eligible merchants, or are separate merchants located on the same premises as eligible merchants, but are classified by Mastercard in different categories. Purchases made from other merchants only earn base reward points. A restaurant purchase means a purchase made at a restaurant, including quick-service restaurants, bars, discotheques, nightclubs, and taverns. To view the full list of Mastercard codes associated with eligible merchants, download the À la carte Rewards Plan^® terms and conditions document.
These protections apply if the purchases or rental are paid for in part with the card before departure, except, if applicable, for out-of-province medical-hospital insurance for which it is not necessary to charge the purchase of an à la carte trip and for baggage delay protection where the full cost of transport must have been charged to the card. All these protections apply to the primary cardholder, their spouse and/or their dependent children when they (spouse and dependent children) travel with the cardholder. Extended warranties apply to most new items purchased with the card, in Canada or abroad, provided the manufacturer’s warranty exists and is valid in Canada. Certain conditions, limitations and restrictions apply. For more information and details regarding your insurance coverage, please consult the insurance certificate linked to your card.
Subject to credit approval by National Bank.
Certain conditions apply. Visit mastercard.ca for more information. See all credit card terms and conditions.
To earn 2 points per dollar spent, you must pay for your gas or electric charging purchases at a gas station or certain big-box stores. Some merchants may sell products or services identical or similar to those of eligible merchants, or are separate merchants located on the same premises as eligible merchants, but are classified by Mastercard in different categories. Purchases made from other merchants only earn base reward points. To view the full list of Mastercard codes associated with eligible merchants, download the À la carte Rewards Plan^® terms and conditions document.
Recurring bill payments are defined as payments made monthly or regularly that are automatically charged by the merchant to your National Bank World Elite Mastercard. Not all merchants offer recurring payments, and not all recurring payments are considered recurring bill payments. Therefore, some payments may not qualify for accelerated reward points.
To earn 2 points per dollar spent, you must pay for your eligible purchases through the À la carte Travel^TM agency section of our À la carte Rewards^TM site.
For example, if you spend $400 monthly on groceries, $200 on gas, $100 on recurring bills and $150 on other purchases, the $850 spent will generate 2,750 points, broken down as follows: 2,000 points for grocery spending (since the total gross monthly amount is $850, which is less than $2,500), 400 points for gas spending, 200 points for recurring bills and 150 points for other purchases.
Insurance up to $1,000 in case of breakage, loss or theft of mobile devices for a maximum period of 2 years following the date of purchase. Subject to purchasing the device with the National Bank World Elite Mastercard or a phone service subscription paid by recurring payments from your National Bank Platinum Mastercard starting September 1, 2022. For all conditions, please consult the insurance certificate linked to your card.
