Does the Manulife Bank Access Card include travel insurance?

No. The Manulife Bank Access Card is a debit/banking access card linked to your Manulife One or Manulife Bank account. It carries no certificate of insurance, so there is no travel medical, trip cancellation, trip interruption, flight delay or baggage coverage. If you are travelling, buy a separate travel insurance policy — you can compare options for free with HelloSafe's travel insurance tool.

Am I covered for emergency medical costs abroad with this card?

No. There is no emergency medical or hospital coverage abroad on this card. Provincial health plans cover little to nothing outside Canada, so we strongly recommend a standalone travel medical policy before any trip. Compare quotes on HelloSafe.

Does it cover rental cars (CDW/LDW)?

No. The card has no collision/loss damage waiver. If you rent a vehicle you will need to buy the rental counter's coverage or use a dedicated policy or a credit card that includes rental car coverage.

Are my purchases protected (purchase protection or extended warranty)?

No. The Manulife Bank Access Card includes no purchase protection, extended warranty, price protection or mobile device coverage.

Why does this page show every benefit as "not covered"?

Because this is a banking access (debit) card rather than a credit card with an insurance package. We still publish the page so travellers searching for it get a clear answer and can quickly find the coverage they actually need.

What is Manulife One?

Manulife One is Manulife Bank's all-in-one account that combines your mortgage, savings and day-to-day banking in one place. The Manulife Bank Access Card is the debit/ATM card you use to access that account — it is a banking tool, not an insurance product.

What travel insurance should I get instead?

For most trips you want emergency medical coverage plus trip cancellation/interruption and baggage protection. HelloSafe lets you compare travel insurance plans from multiple Canadian insurers in a couple of minutes so you can pick the right level of coverage for your trip and budget.

Who do I contact about the card or my account?
