The Financial Consumer Agency of Canada

The Financial Consumer Agency of Canada (FCAC) supervises Payment Card Network Operators to determine whether they are in compliance with the provisions of the Payment Card Networks Act and the elements of the Code of Conduct for Payment Industry in Canada. It also educates consumers and monitors industry Codes of Conduct and public commitments designed to protect consumer interests.

Please visit the Financial Consumer Agency of Canada's website for more information on merchant rights under the Code of Conduct for the Payment Industry in Canada at https://www.canada.ca/en/financial-consumer-agency/services/merchants/rights-merchant.html

Nothing restricts you from directly filing a complaint with the FCAC to investigate non-compliance with the Code of Conduct. However, the FCAC is not a dispute-resolution agency for consumers in their individual dealings with Payment Card Networks or acquirers.

The FCAC can be reached via:
