Small businesses make up more than 98% of the employers in Canada and account for more than 63% of all jobs, highlighting their role as the backbone of the Canadian economyi . Scotiabank and Home Hardware have teamed up to launch the new Scotia® Home Hardware PRO Visa* Business Card designed to support entrepreneurs in the trades and construction industry to better manage and expand their business.
Scotiabank and Home Hardware are raising the bar for small businesses by offering rewards in the marketplace through the Scene+ loyalty program, with features including a competitive variable interest rateii, no annual fee, a 21-day interest-free grace period on new purchases, and credit limits up to $500,000, enabling them to invest more in their growing businesses.
The new card combines the convenience of a Visa credit card with a variable interest rate and ability to earn Scene+™* points on purchases made at Home Hardwareiii . Unlike comparable cards, Scotia Home Hardware PRO Visa Business cardholders have more flexibility to redeem Scene+ points on a wide variety of options like travel, grocery, dining, entertainment, home improvement and more.
