It is an overdraft line of credit that you can open that reports to the CRA as revolving credit. You have the option of being issued checks that you can write against the account as well (IIRC). It should be under account services when you log in. You can get up to $15,000.
OP: No idea. You might get a couple negative points as well for opening a new account, depending on your credit report. I know I just lost a few points for opening some new cards, but expect that it will bounce back.

I couldn't find any info on their website with regards to how high the APR goes up to, but it starts off at 13.9% APR.

Current interest rate is as low as 13.9% APR.**
