Here’s our first update to our new Scotiabank Gold American Express Card Confirmed Multiplier Locations list with 22 new locations being added today from the U.K., South Africa and South America
A big thank you to the long time RWRDS Canada community member Jim M. for providing the details on these locations where you can use the Scotiabank Gold American Express Card to earn up to 5x points around the world .
Even though we focus on the Cobalt Card for this feature it is also a good resource to see where Amex cards in general are accepted if you have one of their many other cards. For example, the vet we use is 1x point with Cobalt so I use my Marriott Bonvoy card there to earn 2x points.

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!)
