To qualify for the 5,000 SCENE points or 5,000 Scotia Rewards points (the “Offer”), you must (1) open a new Scotia One™ Account, Basic Banking Account, Basic Banking Plan, Student Banking Advantage Plan, or Getting There Savings Account for Youth (an "Eligible Account") with a SCENE ScotiaCard or Passport ScotiaCard, respectively, by April 30, 2019, and (2) set up your payroll so that it is deposited into your Eligible Account or set up a minimum of 2 separate pre-authorized transactions (“PATs”).  If you are not already a SCENE member, you will need to open a SCENE membership account and then connect it to your SCENE ScotiaCard. Your first payroll deposit or PATs must be deposited or credited in the Eligible Account within 60 days of account opening. The Eligible Account must be open and in good standing until the time of payout. The Eligible Account is not in "good standing" if (i) it has a negative balance exceeding the authorized overdraft limit or (ii) it has been in continuous overdraft for a period of three (3) consecutive months. If the Eligible Account is opened with a SCENE ScotiaCard, the bonus SCENE points will appear as an adjustment on your SCENE membership account within 3 statement cycles after Eligible Account opening. If the Eligible Account is opened with a Passport ScotiaCard, the bonus Scotia Rewards points will appear as an adjustment on your Scotia Rewards account within 3 statement cycles after Eligible Account opening. Existing Scotiabank chequing account holders are not eligible for this Offer. For joint accounts, if at the time of payout of the bonus points each joint account holder has a SCENE ScotiaCard or Passport ScotiaCard, points will be split equally. This Offer is non-transferable; only one 5,000 bonus point Offer may be applied to the each new Eligible Account. All rates, fees, features and benefits are subject to change. Offers may change, be extended and cannot be combined with any other offers.

When you open a new SCENE-eligible bank account and get a SCENE ScotiaCard® debit card, you will receive 5,000 SCENE points on your SCENE membership account after you have set up: a pre-authorized payroll deposit or 2 pre-authorized transactions for a minimum of $25 per transaction. Your automatic payroll or pre-authorized transactions must clear your account within 60 days of opening your account, and thereafter at least once per month for twelve (12) consecutive months in order to qualify. 5,000 SCENE points will be added to your SCENE membership account within 2-3 statement cycles after your pre-authorized transactions clear your account.
