Interest-free period (grace period)

Purchases

You have a grace period of 21 days following the end of each statement period to reimburse the purchases made during this statement period. The grace period ends on the due date shown on each statement. If you pay off your purchases in full before this date, you will not owe any interest.

If you do not pay off your total balance before the due date, interests on these purchases will be charged on your next statement. Interest will be calculated from the date the purchases were charged to the account until the balance is paid in full.

Cash advances and balance transfers

There is no grace period for cash advances and balance transfers.

Interests begin to accrue the day the transaction is made.
Minimum payment

If you reside in the province of Quebec, your minimum payment corresponds to 5.00% of your account balance. If you reside in a province other than Quebec or a territory, your minimum payment corresponds to 2.50% of your account balance.
Special conditions to the minimum payment:

- Any late payment is added to the minimum payment amount.

- If the minimum payment calculation is less than $10.00, the minimum payment will be $10.00.

- If the total balance of your account is of less than $10.00, the total balance represents the minimum payment.
Foreign currency transactions

A transaction made in a foreign currency will appear on your statement in Canadian dollars.

To convert the amount of a transaction in a foreign currency to Canadian dollars, we use the Mastercard daily exchange rate. The conversion takes place at the latest of the date the transaction is made or, the date the transaction is posted to your account. A 2.50% fee will then be charged on the amount converted in Canadian dollars.

A transaction includes a debit or a credit to your account. The applicable exchange rate may therefore be different depending on the date and time of the transaction.
