1) The Monthly Fee is charged on the last day of the Month of your Account’s monthly cycle. If the last day is a non-Business Day, the fee is charged the previous Business Day. However, if the last day of your Account’s Monthly Cycle is a non-Business Day and falls at the beginning of the calendar month, then the Monthly Fee is collected the next Business Day.
2) The standard Monthly Fee for the RBC Day to Day Banking account is $4; however, you may be eligible to receive a full rebate on your account's standard Monthly Fee if you meet the criteria applicable to rebates or discounts we offer, as described herein, and in the document entitled “Personal Deposit Accounts Disclosures and Agreement s”.
3) There is a limit of 999 free Interac‡ e-Transfer Transactions per Month per Account; for every Interac‡ e-Transfer Transaction over the limit, you will be charged $1.
4) 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 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.
5) To participate in this offer, you must have an RBC debit or credit card which is issued by Royal Bank of Canada (excluding RBC commercial credit cards) (“RBC Card”). RBC business clients will only be able to link up to two (2) business credit cards and one business debit card to a Petro-Points card. You must be enrolled in RBC Online Banking or the RBC Mobile app in order to link your RBC Card to your Petro-Points card. Card linking may take up to 2 business days to process before savings and bonus points can be applied to purchases. A linked RBC Card means an RBC Card linked to a Petro-Points Account. Your linked RBC Card acts as your Petro-Points card. You will automatically earn Petro-Points when you pay for qualifying purchases with your linked RBC Card at Petro-Canada locations and you do not need to swipe your Petro-Points card before you pay. You can redeem your Petro-Points at Petro-Canada using your linked RBC Card. Each time you use your linked RBC Card to purchase any grade of gasoline, or diesel, at a Petro-Canada location, you will save three cents ($0.03) per litre at the time of the transaction.
6) Proof of any Registered Disability Savings Plan opened in your name or for your benefit is required before the Monthly Fee rebate will be applied to the RBC Day to Day Banking Account. Any fees paid before eligibility has been confirmed will not be refunded. Limit of one rebate per client.
7) For clients age 65 or older. Only one Monthly Fee rebate per Account Owner will apply. Other conditions and exceptions may apply, please refer to the Personal Deposit Accounts Disclosures and Agreements for full details.

Unless otherwise specified herein, all other debits, including bill payments, will count towards the number of included Debit Transactions and will result in an Excess Debit Transaction Fee if you go over the number of included debits per Month. 12) Eligible Canadian dollar Accounts: one of RBC Day to Day Banking, RBC Day to Day Savings or RBC Enhanced Savings. The RBC VIP Banking Account is known as your “VIP Operating Account.” Accounts linked to your VIP Operating Account are known as “VIP Companion Accounts.” All Accounts need to be in the same geographic location.

34) Unlimited FREE Interac e-Transfer transactions through the Interac e-Transfer service are available with all Canadian dollar personal bank accounts and are not counted in the monthly total of debits for accounts with a limited number of free debits. There is a limit of 999 free Interac e-Transfer Transactions per Month per Account; for every Interac e-Transfer Transaction over the limit, you will be charged $1. For all Canadian dollar savings accounts, transfers through the Interac e-Transfer service are $1 each, count as a Debit Transaction toward any free monthly total and carry an Excess Debit Transaction Fee, if applicable. The Interac e-Transfer service is not available with U.S. Dollar Accounts.
35) When you use RBC Virtual Visa Debit for a transaction in a currency other than Canadian dollars, we will convert the transaction amount into Canadian dollars at an exchange rate that is 2.5% over a benchmark rate Royal Bank of Canada pays on the date of the conversion. If the merchant gives you a credit voucher or refund for a transaction in a foreign currency, the debit and the subsequent credit will not exactly balance because of exchange rate and currency fluctuations.
