November 14 Update: Scotia will add Disney+ to streaming service category in the new year and 25% bonus Norwegian CashPoints for online shopping (yes Norwegian)

As many of you will know, Disney officially launched their own
streaming service, Disney+ earlier this week. As it is a streaming
service that naturally let us to reach out to Scotia Bank to see if the
new service will fall into their 3x points for streaming services spend
category on the Scotia Gold American Express Card. This is what Scotia
told me:


We are looking to add the Disney+ streaming service in the near future.
Although timing is still being confirmed, we anticipate to have it added
early in the new year.

That’s mostly good news for those who are going to subscribe to the new service as you may only go a few months without the accelerated earn rate.

We added a couple more promotions to our Top 6 tips for maximizing miles & points earning on your holiday shopping feature. As
we mentioned previously we are dynamically updating this piece during
this entire holiday season with the latest offers and promotions. Today
we added the AIR MILES Shop the Block event to it and also another
online shopping mall bonus – 25% Bonus CashPoints for online shopping
via Norwegian Reward‘s eShop. The latter may not even
be looked at by most of you but I know a couple of you out there do
collect CashPoints even though Norwegian doesn’t even set foot in Canada
– you use them for their flights out of the U.S., within Europe and so
on so that’s why I added it. You can check out the feature here.
