Is the Finder reward stackable with Scotiabank’s promotional offer?
Yes, if you meet all eligibility requirements and complete all qualifying actions, you could earn both the Finder reward and Scotiabank’s new account offer. That means the total possible bonus you could earn could be much higher than what you would earn with the bank bonus alone.

Didn’t receive your reward? Let us know at help-ca@finder.com within 4 months of opening your account. Finder may request that you submit additional evidence to confirm your eligibility for the reward.
Your first name, last name and email address must match exactly between your Finder and Scotiabank accounts. A middle name is fine, but don't use a nickname—that could make you ineligible.
Just make sure you follow the steps above—especially logging in to your Finder account first. You will receive an email from Tremendous with a link to activate your digital Visa card.
Both account holders must be eligible new Scotiabank customers. If either person is an existing Scotiabank customer, no one on the joint account will qualify.
The digital Visa card can be used for online purchases just as you would use a credit card. There is no billing address associated with the card. You may enter your own address when shopping online.
You'll get an email from Tremendous, our rewards partner with a link to redeem your reward. Shortly after you have redeemed your reward, you will receive an email with a link to your digital Visa card.
The reward must be activated on the Tremendous website within 12 months of being issued. The digital Visa card has a 6-month expiration date once activated.
Email us at help-ca@finder.com and we'll look into it. Please get in touch within 3 months of opening your account.
Yes! This Finder reward can be combined with other Scotiabank offers (unless stated otherwise).
Yes, Tremendous is legit. It's a trusted rewards platform used by Google, Visa, MIT and more. They've sent over $1 billion in rewards and use bank-grade security to protect your info.
It's for anyone who wants to be rewarded for switching or signing up to something new, likes getting more value from smart money decisions and enjoys exclusive perks that aren't available elsewhere.
There's no catch. Finder earns a small referral fee if you open the account through us—and in return, we pass a reward on to you. It's one of the many perks of being a Finder member.
