Accepting the pre-approved offer to switch to the Scotiabank Value Visa credit card should not impact your credit score.

You might be paying more interest than you need to, based on the types of debt you have. Restructuring your debt can lower your interest payments, freeing up much-needed cash to help you get debt-free faster. There are a few different ways to do this:
Switching to lower interest rate credit card Many credit cards have high interest rates. Look to see if one is available to you with a lower interest rate.
Consolidating your debt If you have multiple loans or credit cards, you can combine them all under a new credit application to take advantage of a lower annual interest rate and payment. This might be under a new loan or line of credit that enables you to pay off and close those other cards for good. Booking a meeting with a Scotia advisor can help you find the best solution.
Homeowners – consider STEP If you own a home, but also have outstanding debt like credit cards, STEP might be for you. STEP (which stands for Scotia Total Equity Plan), helps you use the equity you hold in your home to consolidate your debt, which can lower your portfolio interest rate and monthly payments. Ask an advisor to walk through how STEP can help you.

Offer Description and Conditions: The Introductory 0.99% Balance Transfer Rate and First Year Annual Fee Waiver Offer (the “Offer”) applies only to new Scotiabank Value Visa credit card accounts (“Accounts”) that are opened between October 31, 2025 and October 31, 2026 (regardless of the date you apply for the Account) subject to the conditions below. We will waive the annual fee for the primary card on the Account for the first year only. All other terms and conditions of the Program Terms continue to apply during the Offer period. Offer may be changed, cancelled or extended at any time without notice and cannot be combined with any other offers.
Introductory 0.99% Balance Transfer Rate Offer Description and Conditions: The Introductory 0.99% Balance Transfer Rate Offer (the “Rate Offer”) applies only to eligible cash advances (including balance transfers and cash-like transactions) (collectively “Cash Advances”) subject to the conditions below. This introductory rate applies for 9 months from date of Account opening (the “Promotional Period”). A balance transfer fee of 2% of the amount of each Cash Advance transferred or made during the Promotional Period applies (minimum fee of $5.00). After the Promotional Period, the promotional 0.99% interest rate on any Cash Advances (including any amount of those Cash Advances that remain unpaid after the Promotional Period ends) will increase to the preferred interest rate on Cash Advances (currently 13.99%).
This Rate Offer is subject to any Cash Advance limits on your Account. This Offer also is subject to the approved credit limit that is being offered to you as of the date of this Offer. This means if a balance transfer amount(s) requested exceeds your approved credit limit as of the date this Rate Offer was provided to you, it may not be processed. This Rate Offer cannot be used for any Scotiabank account including to transfer a balance from another Scotiabank account, or to make a payment or deposit to another Scotiabank account.
Losing your Promotional Rate: If we don’t receive the minimum payment on your Account by the payment due date on your statement, two consecutive times , you will lose the benefit of this promotional Rate Offer and the interest rates that apply on any unpaid balance will increase to the standard annual interest rates that apply to your Account (currently 24.99% on purchases and 27.99% on Cash Advances).
How We Apply Payments: Your payment cannot be applied to the balance(s) of your choice. In general, if you make a payment that exceeds the minimum payment on your statement, we will apply your payment on a proportionate basis among each group of billed charges on your Account. We group charges based on the interest rate that applies to the group of charges. See your credit card agreement for more information about how we apply payments to your Account.
First Year Annual Fee Waiver Offer Description and Conditions: We will waive the annual fee for the primary card issued between October 31, 2025 and October 31, 2026 on the Account for the first year only.

For example, on an outstanding balance of $5,000 with an annual interest rate of 13.99% and assuming a constant balance (i.e., no other transactions posted) during a 12 month period, you can save $800 in interest compared to a credit card with an annual interest rate of 29.99% ($1,499.50 interest for 12 months at 29.99% compared to $699.50 interest for 12 months at 13.99%). Actual interest savings will depend on various factors including the outstanding balance and the amounts, timing and application of any payments made, the nature of the transactions and the interest rate of the credit card being compared.
