The National Bank Lounge is only available to clients travelling to international destinations (excluding Canada and U.S. flights). Guests cannot spend more than three (3) hours in the Lounge. For National Bank clients who do not have free Lounge access and for additional guests, admission is around $37 for adults and $26 for children, plus tax. Admission is free for children under three years old. The entry price may change at any time without notice and at the discretion of the Lounge operator.
5. Clients must submit required documents within the given deadline. Certain conditions may apply. Only the primary cardholder (“Cardholder”) of National Bank World Elite Mastercard whose account is in good standing can request a refund of travel expenses. An account in good standing refers to an account linked to a credit card which complies with the Agreement governing the use of the credit card and which is not subject to any restrictions. For example, the annual fees related to the credit card must have been paid in full. The maximum amount that can be submitted for reimbursement between January 1 and December 31 of each year is $150.
Eligible expenses include:
The claim must be submitted within 60 days of the purchase date and accompanied by proof of purchase. The travel fees must be charged to the National Bank World Elite Mastercard credit card. The maximum reimbursement amount is $150 per account. The refund will be issued within 7 business days following the request approval date and after receiving all required information. An amount not claimed in a year cannot be carried over to the following year. For more information or to obtain the refund form, sign in to rewards.nbc.ca, click the Refund of travel expenses tab and complete the form, you can also contact us at 1-888-296-8881 (toll-free).
6. The amount of points earned on grocery and restaurant purchases depends on the total gross monthly amount charged to the credit card account, regardless of the purchase category. You will earn 5 points for every dollar in eligible grocery and restaurant purchases until a total of $2,500 in gross monthly purchases is charged to the account. After that, you will earn 2 points per dollar in eligible grocery and restaurant purchases. The total gross monthly amount is calculated based on your monthly billing period. Grocery purchases include any purchase made at a store that primarily sells food, i.e., grocery store, delicatessen, supermarket, greengrocer or specialty food store. Ready-to-eat meal services and meal delivery services are eligible. This definition excludes purchases made at retail stores and big box stores whose core business is the sale of non-food items. Certain merchants may sell products and services that appear identical or similar to those sold by eligible merchants, or may be separate merchants located on the same premises as eligible merchants, but are classified in different categories by Mastercard. For purchases at other merchants, you will only earn regular rewards points. Restaurant purchases include purchases at a restaurant, fast food restaurant, bar, nightclub or pub. For a full list of Mastercard codes associated with eligible merchants, download the terms and conditions of the À la carte Rewards Plan®.
7. This coverage applies to purchases and rentals
charged in part to the card, except out-of-province medical/hospital
insurance for which the travel arrangements need not be charged to
the card and lost or delayed luggage insurance where all
transportation costs must be charged to the card. This coverage
applies to the primary cardholder, their spouse and/or dependent
children when they (spouse and/or dependent children) travel with the
primary cardholder. Extended warranty coverage applies to most new
items purchased with the card, in Canada or abroad, as long as the
manufacturer's warranty is valid in Canada. Certain conditions and
restrictions apply. For more information and for details of your insurance coverage, please consult the insurance
certificate associated with your card.
8. Subject to credit approval by National Bank.
9. Certain conditions apply. Visit mastercard.ca for more information. Refer to the credit card terms and conditions.
10. To earn 2 points per dollar in purchases, you will need to purchase gas or an electrical vehicle charge from a service station or from certain big-box stores. Certain merchants may sell products and services that appear identical or similar to those sold by eligible merchants, or may be separate merchants located on the same premises as eligible merchants, but are classified in different categories by Mastercard. For purchases at other merchants, you will only earn regular rewards points. For a full list of Mastercard codes associated with eligible merchants, download the terms and conditions of the À la carte Rewards Plan®.
11. Recurring bill payments are defined as monthly or regular
payments automatically charged by a merchant to your National Bank
World Elite Mastercard credit card. Not all merchants offer recurring
bill payments, and not all recurring payments are considered recurring
bill payments. Certain payments therefore may not entitle you to earn
more points.
12. To earn 2 points per dollar in purchases, you must make your
eligible purchases via the À la carte TravelTM Agency
section of our À la carte RewardsTM site.
13. For example, if each month you charge $400 in groceries, $200 in
gas, $100 in recurring bill payments and $150 in other purchases to
your card, your $850 in purchases will earn you 2,750 points, as
follows: 2,000 points for grocery purchases (since the total gross
monthly amount is $850, i.e., under $2,500), 400 points for gas
purchases, 200 points for recurring bill payments and 150 points for
other purchases.
14. Up to $1,000 in the event of breakage, loss or theft for a
maximum of 2 years after the purchase date. The device must have been
purchased using your National Bank World Elite Mastercard credit card,
or your phone plan must be paid via recurring payments charged to your
National Bank World Elite credit card starting September 1, 2022. For
complete terms and conditions, please consult the insurance certificate associated with your
card.
