Please refer to the section labelled “Rebates, Fee Waivers and Discounts: RBC Advantage Banking for students” in the document entitled “Personal Deposit Accounts (PDA) Disclosures and Agreements(opens in new window)", which provides information specific to the RBC Advantage Banking account to supplement the information provided in the Personal Deposit Accounts Disclosures and Agreements document.

Proof of enrolment may be requested at our discretion.

To be considered a full-time student, you must attend a primary or secondary school OR be enrolled in a program at the post-secondary level at a college, university or other educational institution (whether in Canada or not). If you are a post-secondary student, you must take at least 60% of the usual course load for the program in which you are enrolled in any particular semester.

Unlimited free Interac e-Transfer transactions are available in all Canadian dollar personal banking (chequing) accounts and are not counted toward the free monthly total in accounts with a limited number of free debits. There is a limit of 999 free Interac e-Transfer Transactions per Month per https://www.rbcroyalbank.com/onlinebanking/servicech/pdf/PDA_Account_Disclosure_Booklet.pdf Account. In all Canadian dollar savings accounts, Interac e-Transfer transactions are $1 each, count as a Debit Transaction toward any free monthly total and carry an Excess Debit Transaction fee, if applicable. Interac e-Transfer transactions are not available in US dollar accounts.

Interac e-Transfer transactions expire 30 days after they are sent and cannot be claimed by the recipient after this time. You have 15 days after the Interac e-Transfer transaction is sent to cancel without charge. A $5.00 Interac e-Transfer transaction Reclaim Fee is charged when a recipient does not accept it before it expires and the sender does not cancel the transaction before the 15-day cancellation period.

An ATM operator surcharge (also called convenience fee) may be charged by other ATM operators. The convenience fee is not a Royal Bank fee. It is added directly to the amount of your cash withdrawal. All clients who use non-RBC ATMs may be charged a convenience fee regardless of the type of Account they hold.

When you use your Client Card to make a withdrawal in a currency other than Canadian dollars at an ATM outside Canada displaying the PLUS system symbol, we will convert the amounts withdrawn and any associated charges imposed by any third party for the use of the ATM to Canadian dollars when we deduct the funds from your Account. We will convert these amounts to Canadian dollars no later than the date we post the transaction to your Account at our exchange rate, which is 2.5% over a benchmark rate set by Visa International, a subsidiary of Visa Inc., and which Royal Bank of Canada pays on the date of conversion. This rate may be different from the rate in effect on the date your ATM withdrawal occurred or on the date of the transaction.

You will earn 3 Avion points for every $1.00 in Grocery, Dining, Food Delivery, Rides, Gas, Electric Vehicle Charging, Streaming, and Digital Gaming & Subscriptions Purchases you make on your RBC ION+ Visa credit card at merchants classified by Visa’s “Merchant Category Code” (MCC). Depending on how certain merchants are categorized by Visa’s “Merchant Category Code” (MCC) they may not qualify as an eligible MCC. Eligible MCCs are listed as:

(i) “Grocery Stores and Supermarkets” (MCC 5411), “Eating Places and Restaurants” (MCC 5812), “Drinking Places (Alcoholic Beverages) – Bars, Taverns, Nightclubs, Cocktail Lounges, and Discotheques” (MCC 5813), “Fast Food Restaurants” (MCC 5814), “are “Grocery, Dining, and Food Delivery Purchases”. Government liquor agencies and package stores that sell beer, wine, and liquor do not qualify as part of the “Drinking Places (Alcoholic Beverages) – Bars, Taverns, Nightclubs, Cocktail Lounges, and Discotheques” MCC;

(ii) “Service Stations (With or without Ancillary Services)” (MCC 5541), “Automated Fuel Dispensers” (MCC 5542), “Taxicabs and Limousines” (MCC 4121), “Local and Suburban Commuter Passenger Transportation, Including Ferries” (MCC 4111), “Electric Vehicle Charging” (MCC 5552) are “Rides, Gas & Electric Vehicle Charging Purchases”.

You will earn 1 Avion point for every $1.00 on all other purchases (including pre-authorized bill payments) you make on your RBC ION+ Visa credit card.

Even though some merchants may sell Grocery, Dining, Food Delivery, Rides, Gas, Electric Vehicle Charging, Streaming, Digital Gaming & Subscriptions merchandise, purchases made at these locations may not necessarily qualify as Eligible MCCs if the merchant is not classified as such by Visa. Also, you may make a purchase at a merchant that is not classified as an Eligible MCC but is located on the premises of a merchant that is classified as an Eligible MCC, in which case your purchase would not qualify as an Eligible MCC. We cannot guarantee that any merchant, operating in whole or in part as a Grocery, Dining, Food Delivery, Rides, Gas, Electric Vehicle Charging, Streaming, and Digital Gaming & Subscriptions merchant is classified as an Eligible MCC and in no event will we be liable or responsible for any claims with respect to a Grocery, Dining, Food Delivery, Rides, Gas, Electric Vehicle Charging, Streaming, and Digital Gaming & Subscriptions Purchase made at a merchant that is not classified as an Eligible MCC. Avion points are earned on net purchases only; they are not earned on cash advances (balance transfers, cash-like transactions and bill payments that are not pre-authorized charges that you set up with a merchant), interest charges or fees, and credits for returns and adjustments will reduce or cancel the points earned by the amounts originally charged.

Please allow 60 days after this requirement is fulfilled for the additional Avion points to be awarded to your account. Qualifying Transactions exclude cash advances (including balance transfers, cash-like transactions and bill payments that are not pre-authorized charges that you set up with a merchant), interest charges, and fees.

Subject to credit approval. If you are a post-secondary student and an owner or co-owner of an RBC Advantage™ Banking Account for students (“Eligible Student Bank Account”) and the primary cardholder of one of the eligible RBC Royal Bank credit cards listed below (each, an “Eligible Credit Card”), the annual fee of your Eligible Credit Card may be fully rebated, every year:

Responsive Table Example

Eligible Credit Cards	Annual Fee Rebate
RBC ION+ Visa‡	$4 a month ($48 annually)
WestJet RBC® MasterCard‡	$39
Signature® RBC Rewards® Visa	$39
Visa Cash Back Card	$19

For any other RBC Royal Bank credit card, regular annual fees apply as they are not eligible for a rebate. For the annual fee of your Eligible Credit Card to be fully rebated, every year, you must: i) complete the Student Information section of the credit card application in full, ii) remain a student, and iii) be an owner or co-owner of an Eligible Student Bank Account throughout your studies. The annual fee of your Eligible Credit Card will continue to be fully rebated: i) until you close your Eligible Student Bank Account, or ii) until the Expected Graduation Year you have provided at the opening of your Eligible Student Bank Account, whichever comes first. Thereafter, the annual fee will no longer be rebated. If, for some reason, the Expected Graduation Year you have provided at the opening of your Eligible Student Bank Account differs from the one you have indicated on your credit card application, the Expected Graduation Year you have provided at the opening of your Eligible Student Bank Account will prevail and be used for determining the expiry of this offer. Additional cardholders (co-applicant and authorized user(s)) do not qualify for the annual fee rebate even if they are also owners of an Eligible Student Bank Account. Only one credit card annual fee rebate per Eligible Student Bank Account is allowed. If you already have an Eligible Student Bank Account, the rebate will be applied at the time you open your Eligible Credit Card account. If you open your Eligible Student Bank Account after you have opened your Eligible Credit Card account, the rebate will be applied at your next annual renewal and won't be applied retroactively. Other conditions and restrictions may apply. Royal Bank of Canada reserves the right to withdraw this offer at any time, even after acceptance by you.

As a sole or joint owner of an RBC Signature No Limit Banking (SNL) account and the primary RBC ION+ Visa cardholder, the $4 monthly fee ($48 annually) of your RBC ION+ Visa card will be fully rebated, every month, as long as your eligible credit card remains in good standing and you remain an SNL account owner. Additional cardholders (co-applicants and authorized users) do not qualify for the annual fee rebate, even if they are also owners of an SNL account. Only one credit card annual fee rebate per SNL account is allowed. Other conditions and restrictions apply. Royal Bank of Canada reserves the right to withdraw this offer at any time, even after acceptance by you.
