What is a PC Money™ Account?

The PC Money™ Account is an account that works like debit, and rewards you every time you use it to make a purchase. Accepted everywhere Mastercard® is, this no monthly fee account gives you unlimited everyday transactions and rewards you with 10 PC Optimum points on every $1 you spend on purchases.

How does the PC Money™ Account differ from a conventional debit account?

The PC Money™ Account is an online self-service money management account. This means you can pay bills (including using direct debits for expenses such as gym memberships or utility bills) and make interbank funds transfers. You earn PC Optimum points every time you use your card to make a purchase online or in-store. You can use your card everywhere Mastercard® is accepted, including online and when travelling abroad. However, you cannot write or deposit cheques or use your card at merchants who do not accept Mastercard® payments.

How can I transfer funds to another financial institution's account?

You can transfer funds by linking an external account, or by sending yourself an Interac e-Transfer®. Sending yourself an Interac e-Transfer® is the fastest way to fund your account. Linking an external account may take up to 3 business days.
