Bank Accounts

 

Recommended Accounts for Newcomers

Everyone has distinct financial needs. That’s why we have many different types of accounts.

When you’re getting started, it’s useful to have an account that can handle all of your daily financial needs, such as the RBC Day to Day Banking™ account. This account offers chequing privileges in addition to the easy access that is a key feature of all RBC Royal Bank accounts, all for a very low monthly fee.

With the RBC Day to Day Banking account, you can:

  • Make up to 15 transactions per month
  • Have free access to online and telephone banking
  • Make any number of additional transactions, for a small fee
  • Make cross-border debit transactions and INTERAC® email money transfers, for a small fee
  • Choose either a monthly paper statement or an eStatement that includes images of cheques written in the past 90 days.

In addition, you have the option of choosing extra account features, such as overdraft protection and cheque return.

The flexibility and low cost of this account make it an excellent choice for getting started.

Free Banking

You may qualify for free RBC Day to Day Banking through the MultiProduct Rebate. You are eligible if:

  • You hold an RBC Royal Bank investment, and
  • You have either an RBC Rewards® or an RBC Partner Rewards Visa* card.
