Why you’re missing out if you don’t have the PC Money™ Account
No monthly fee is just the beginning. There are so many benefits to having the PC Money™ Account - and wait till you hear about the new offer that could help you earn up to 250,000 PC Optimum™ points.

Don’t have a PC Money™ Account (opens in a new window) yet? That’s okay - we’re here to casually convince you of all the benefits (they’re particularly helpful during the holiday season when you have all that extra spending). Our favourite part of the PC Money Account™ is that you earn 10 PC Optimum™ points for every dollar you spend, anywhere you shop. We told you it was helpful during the holiday season - redeem those points for gifts or towards your big feast! And to help you get a very healthy points balance, we have a welcome offer of up to 250,000 PC Optimum™ points1 for a limited time.
The PC Money Account™ is a no monthly fee bank account. Yep, no monthly fee or catches. Plus, you get free Interac e-Transfer® services, don’t have to maintain a minimum balance and have 24/7 customer support. Whoa, right?
Now that we have your attention, let’s get into specifics. How does the PC Money™ Account work exactly? Just remember, fund, shop, earn.
Fund:
Opening the PC Money™ Account couldn’t be simpler. Sign up through the PC Financial® app or pcfinancial.ca. You decide how much money you want to fund your account with. Then you can deposit your funds using Interac e-Transfer® service. Easy, right?
Shop:
Now you’re ready to shop and make your first purchase. Whether you tap IRL, shop online or use Apple Pay or Google Pay *, the PC Money™ Account lets you pay with the money you put on your card. You can use your card anywhere you shop, worldwide, online and you have unlimited everyday transactions. And unlike other accounts, you don’t have to maintain a minimum balance and don’t have to pay monthly baking fees. Winning!
Earn:
Here’s the really cool part: for every dollar you spend using the PC Money™ Account, you earn at least 10 PC Optimum™ points (and up to 25 PC Optimum™ points at Shoppers Drug Mart®). Brunch on a Saturday at a cute café? Points. Filling up your gas tank? Points. Limited edition comic book you bought in an online auction? Points. Using the PC Money™ Account means you earn rewards points anywhere you shop.
And what about that special limited time offer:
Here’s what could happen if you signed up for the PC Money™ Account today: The second you make your first purchase using your account you’ll start unlocking your welcome offer. That means you’ll earn up to 10% back in PC Optimum™ points on up to $1,000 in purchases at our stores, including Loblaws® and Shoppers Drug Mart®. For a limited time, that’s 100 points for every dollar you spend, which could equal up to 100,000 points (aka $100). That’s an offer you’d want to tell your friends about, right? Exactly! You can always earn 25,000 PC Optimum™ points for successfully referring a friend to PC Financial®, but for a limited time, we’ve bumped that up to 50,000 PC Optimum™ points per friend you refer to PC Financial® (to a maximum of three very happy pals). You'll earn 50,000 bonus points after your pal is approved for any PC Financial® product and spends $100 by December 31st, 2021.
Redeem:
We’ve told you a lot about the benefits of the PC Money™ Account, but now’s the fun part—shopping and redeeming. Whether you’re looking for what to buy with your newly funded PC Money™ Account, wanting to make your first purchase and unlock your welcome offer or spending points you may have earned with your PC Money™ Account, we have some inspiration for you.
Life at Home™ bedding
Thought you could only redeem your points for groceries? Think again! There’s an incredible range of products to choose from at select Loblaw banner stores, including ultra-snuggly bedding from the new Life at Home™ collection (you can go with a marble print or cozy plaid). Hint, hint, this makes a great gift idea.
Small appliances
Dreaming of lazy Sunday mornings eating freshly-made waffles? You should redeem your points for the new PC® Flip Waffle Maker, one of many handy, small appliances you can find at select Loblaw banner grocery stores. We did mention you can get so much more for your points than just groceries?
Refresh your wardrobe at Joe Fresh® locations
Cozy scarves, chunky sweaters, warm socks...all these and more can be yours if you redeem your points for something (or a lot of somethings) at a Joe Fresh® location, which has options (and gifts) for the entire family.
