Credit Protection for Credit Cards
Right for you if you:
Your Scotiabank credit card can give you convenient access to credit for your everyday purchases and expenses. However, in the event of your death, or the diagnosis of a covered critical illness, this convenience could become your family's financial obligation. Credit Protection can prevent this from happening.
Credit Life Protection can pay off the outstanding balance on your credit card account in the event of your death, removing these worries from your loved ones.
Critical Illness Protection is a living benefit, which means that the outstanding balance on your credit card account can be paid in the event you are diagnosed with a covered critical illness (specifically heart attack, cancer, or stroke).
