2 Transactions must first be posted to your account before they can trigger a spend alert. It may then take up 24 hours after a triggering transaction is posted for an Alert to be sent.

3 This service is provided by Equifax Canada, a leading credit bureau in Canada.

5 AVIS discounts are available at participating AVIS locations and are applied automatically when you use the Card to pay for the rental (Quebec residents may obtain the discount without using their Card, provided they show the Card when paying by an alternative payment option acceptable to AVIS).
