Student Points Credit Card FAQs

No, you only have to prove the ability to pay your balance, which can come from the following forms of supplemental income, such as allowance from a guardian, grants, or scholarship funds.
If approved, you can build your credit responsibly with a Student Points Visa® Credit Card by:
  • Making all payments on time.
  • Paying your balance in full each month (or, if you can’t, at least pay more than your minimum due each month).
  • Avoiding carrying a balance: you’ll have to pay interest on any purchases or amounts you don’t pay off each month.
Late payments, failing to pay at all, or other negative activity with your Student Points Credit Card could hurt your ability to build credit.
Applications are accepted for any student in post-secondary education who are aged 18+.
Regular credit cards are typically designed for people with an established credit history. These differ from our Student Points Credit Card, which is designed with students in mind who may have little to no credit and are enrolled in a post-secondary education institution.

Pelican does not have the ability to control how a retailer chooses to categorize their business and, therefore reserves the right to determine transaction eligibility.

Points are void when the card is canceled and expire after 36 months. Offer valid only on Student Points Visa® Credit Cards. You can earn a maximum of 30,000 in a 1-month time period.
