Accelerated earn rates outside of Canada ARE NOT guaranteed
With the above being said it has to be stressed that not all merchants outside of Canada are coding “improperly” as the RWRDS Canada community have already let us know it is hit and miss. Some dining establishments are showing up as 5x points while others are coding properly at 1x points.
At no time should you consider the accelerated earn rates of 3x points and 5x points as guaranteed. Scotiabank and RWRDS Canada do not guarantee them nor will we be held liable if you do not earn the accelerated rates even if they show up in the merchants listed below.
How to submit your multiplier locations
We have created a new Google Sheets spreadsheet for our community to use to contribute the multipliers. It should make the submission process easier for both you and me! You can find the spreadsheet here. (If you don’t want your name tracked in the changes by Google Sheets simply log out of your Google account before submitting, it will just show up as anonymous!)
