Scotiabank Terms of Use for Third Party Digital Wallets
These Terms of Use ("Terms”) govern your use of third party digital wallets to make a payment with an eligible Scotiabank debit, credit, or prepaid card (each, a “Third Party Digital Wallet” and a "Scotiabank Payment Card”) on an eligible mobile device that supports a Third Party Digital Wallet (“Mobile Device”). The words "you” and "your” mean a customer of The Bank of Nova Scotia, and includes the primary cardholder and each supplementary cardholder or authorized user of a Scotiabank Payment Card, and the words "Bank”, we”, "us”, and "our” mean The Bank of Nova Scotia. "Third Party Digital Wallets” includes Third Party Digital Wallet features, functionality and services now available or added in the future.
Please read these Terms carefully. These Terms are a legal agreement between you and the Bank. If you add, activate or use your Scotiabank Payment Card in Third Party Digital Wallet, it means that you accept and agree to these Terms. Please be advised that, your wireless carrier, and other third party services or websites available through Third Party Digital Wallets may be subject to their own terms and conditions and privacy policies.
- Adding a Scotiabank Payment Card to a Third Party Digital Wallet.
If you want to add a Scotiabank Payment Card to a Third Party Digital Wallet, you must follow the procedures adopted by your wireless carrier and any further procedures we adopt. You understand that not all Scotiabank Payment Cards are eligible to be added to a Third Party Digital Wallet. You also need to have an eligible Mobile Device as determined by your wireless carrier – you should contact your wireless carrier directly for further information as Scotiabank has no control over Mobile Device requirements for any or all Third Party Digital Wallets. You may not be able to add a Scotiabank Payment Card to a Third Party Digital Wallet if we cannot authenticate the Scotiabank Payment Card, we suspect fraud and/or your Scotiabank Payment Card is not in good standing. Equally, Third Party Digital Wallets will not be available if your Mobile Device’s operating system or software has been modified. A Third Party Digital Wallet allows you to make purchases with your Scotiabank Payment Card wherever the applicable Third Party Digital Wallet is accepted. A Third Party Digital Wallet may not be available for all purchase amounts or at all merchants where your Scotiabank Payment Card is accepted. - Scotiabank Cardholder Agreements.
Your Scotiabank Payment Card is governed by the applicable account agreement(s) between you and the Bank (“Account Documents”). The Account Documents apply to your use of a Scotiabank Payment Card in any or all Third Party Digital Wallet. - Applicable Fees.
We do not currently charge you any specific or additional fees when you use a Third Party Digital Wallet. However, other third parties, such as wireless companies or data service providers, may charge you service fees in connection with use of your Mobile Device or a Third Party Digital Wallet. All interest, fees and other charges applicable to your Scotiabank Payment Card continue to apply to all transactions made using any Third Party Digital Wallet. Please consult your Account Documents for information on interest rates, fees and other charges.
We, payment networks or merchants may establish transaction limits from time to time in their discretion. This may mean that you are unable to complete a transaction that exceeds these limits. - Third Party Agreements.
You understand that your use of a Third Party Digital Wallet will also be subject to the applicable agreements or terms of use with the provider of the Third Party Digital Wallet and other third parties (such as your wireless carrier and other merchants, websites and services integrated into a Third Party Digital Wallet). - Keeping your Credentials Secure.
You agree to protect and keep confidential your user ID, passwords, and all other credentials required for you to login to your Mobile Device and make purchases with your Scotiabank Payment Card using a Third Party Digital Wallet. If you share these credentials with others, they may be able to access your Third Party Digital Wallet(s) and make transactions with your Scotiabank Payment Card or obtain your personal information. Before registering for a Third Party Digital Wallet you must ensure that only your credentials and fingerprints are registered on your Mobile Device as these will then be considered authorized to make transactions related to your Scotiabank Payment Card. If the fingerprint or credentials of another person are used to unlock your Mobile Device or make transactions, these will be deemed to be authorized by you. You will be responsible for all transactions carried out using your Mobile Device regardless of whether the credentials used were yours or those of another person. If your Mobile Device is lost, stolen, or if you believe someone else has used or has discovered your Third Party Digital Wallet login/authorization credentials, or the security of your Scotiabank Payment Card or Mobile Device has been otherwise compromised, immediately notify us at the number printed on the back of your Scotiabank Payment Card. You are responsible for all transactions made using your Scotiabank Payment Card, except as specifically described in the Account Documents or as otherwise provided by law. You must also notify us immediately if you believe there is an error on your account or suspect fraud with your Scotiabank Payment Card. - Responsibility for Third Party Digital Wallets.
Third parties are the providers of Third Party Digital Wallets and are solely responsible for Third Party Digital Wallet use and function. We are not responsible for any failure of any or all Third Party Digital Wallet(s) or your inability to use a Third Party Digital Wallet for any transaction. We are also not responsible for any loss, injury or inconvenience you suffer as a result of a merchant refusing to accept a Third Party Digital Wallet. - Security of Third Party Digital Wallets.
You understand that the security of information provided to or stored by third parties in connection with Third Party Digital Wallets is outside of our control. We are not responsible if there is a security breach affecting any information collected, stored or sent in connection with Third Party Digital Wallets. - Cancellation; Suspension.
We may change the type of cards that are eligible for Third Party Digital Wallets or stop participating in any Third Party Digital Wallet at any time. We can block you from adding an otherwise eligible Scotiabank Payment Card to a Third Party Digital Wallet, suspend your ability to use a Scotiabank Payment Card to make purchases using a Third Party Digital Wallet, or cancel entirely your ability to continue to use a Scotiabank Payment Card in a Third Party Digital Wallet. We may take these actions at any time, without telling you first, and for any reason, including if you fail to comply with these Terms or your Account Documents, if we suspect fraud, if your account is not in good standing, there is a change in applicable law or for other reasons we determine. You may remove a Scotiabank Payment Card from a Third Party Digital Wallet by following the applicable Third Party Digital Wallet provider’s procedures for removal. - Replacing Your Mobile Device.
