Low-cost account

A low-cost account is a Canadian bank account that costs $4 or less per month. In February 2001, an agreement was reached with the Canadian federal government,[1] which involved eight of Canada's major banks offering low-cost accounts to consumers, ensuring that every person has affordable banking. The accounts have benefits that include free deposits, a free debit card, cheques, free monthly statements, and up to 15 transactions per month.[2]
