Nice deal on the Scotia Amex Gold. FYF, $300 in reward points after $750 spend in 90 days. And then a $75 gift card if you apply through Rate Supermarket.
Two things to note:
1) They changed the online application portal. I never used to be able to apply for Scotia cards online; I would get that "no credit information on file" error. Works fine now!
2) They changed the terms on the rewards portal. They used to take the points on booking and any refund for cancellation would stay as a cash credit. Now they turn back into points.
So you'll have to use your 30K points for either actual travel bookings on their portal, or against travel purchases you make directly using the card.

Noticed that as well. But when Googling it looks like it also said that back in 2015 so I figured I was mistaken that it wasn't there before. I wonder if it is actually new, and whether it matters.
