The welcome offer for
the Scotiabank American Express Gold Card has gone up from 20,000 welcome points ($200 in travel) to 25,000 welcome points ($250 in travel).
• $250 in travel (increased from $200).
• 4% on gas, groceries, entertainment spend.
• First year free.
• Very low household income requirement to qualify.
