Tangerine has launched its first paid annual-fee card, the Rewards World Elite Mastercard, offering 30,000 Scene+ points for $3,000 spend in 90 days. The card features a $120 CAD annual fee and integrates with the Scotiabank-owned Scene+ loyalty program

## Summary

Tangerine has launched the Tangerine Rewards World Elite Mastercard, marking its entry into the paid annual-fee credit card market. The card is linked to Scene+, the loyalty program owned by parent company Scotiabank. Key details:
- Welcome Bonus: 30,000 Scene+ points for $3,000 in net purchases within 90 days of account opening. Application deadline is October 30, 2026.
- Annual Fee: $120 CAD.
- Earning Rates: 1.5 Scene+ points per dollar on three selected categories (from 13 options including groceries, dining, gas, hotels, etc.) and 1 point per dollar on all other purchases. Categories can be swapped every 90 days.
- Additional Perks: Four complimentary DragonPass lounge visits per year.
- Anniversary Bonus: 10,000 Scene+ points once cardholder spending reaches $30,000 in a cardmember year.
- Redemption: Scene+ points are valued at approximately 1 cent each. Points can be redeemed for travel (retroactively against any travel charge), Cineplex movies, groceries, fuel, or as statement credit. This launch expands the Scene+ ecosystem, offering Canadians a new way to earn points that can be transferred to airline and hotel partners, though the base earning rate (1.5x) is lower than specialized cards like the Scotiabank Gold American Express Card
