What Our Recent Announcement Means for You
For years, PC Financial® has been a fundamental part of how Canadians unlock more everyday value through the PC Optimum™ program, delivering joyful moments of turning every purchase into real, tangible rewards and providing Canadians with the flexibility to redeem points for the rewards you want, your way.
To continue delivering on that promise and to build a stronger future for you, we are excited to share that on December 3, 2025, Loblaw reached an agreement for EQB, parent company of EQ Bank™, to acquire PC Financial®. This transaction is subject to regulatory approval and has not yet closed. In connection with the acquisition, EQB and Loblaw will enter into a long-term relationship that will make EQB the exclusive financial partner for the PC Optimum™ program, expanding the benefits of the program and offering more ways for Canadians to earn rewards on their everyday banking.

No Action Is Required from You Today: You don’t need to do a thing. Your banking relationship with PC Financial® will continue as usual, and no action is required on your part.
Your Second Question is Probably: What Will Change for Me in the Future?
