Post-secondary years are a transitional period that come with a unique set of needs. It’s why students need a bank that works for them – and why BMO’s new partnership with Best Buy Canada is stepping up to the plate.

In a first-of-its-kind partnership between banking and retail, BMO has teamed up with Best Buy Canada to help students prepare for the academic year with tools, advice, and programs designed to help post-secondary students, including international students make real financial progress.

Rewards you actually want

In the effort to give students more flexibility and choice than ever before, BMO and Best Buy Canada are putting the goods up front. Eligible students who open and fund a BMO Student Chequing Account can now receive up to a $200 tech reward from Best Buy Canada*. It means getting to choose tech that fits your lifestyle, from top brands like Nespresso, Dyson, Google Fitbit, Sony, JBL, and more.

Want your dorm to be a personal studying oasis? Start with a super good coffee machine. Need total silence for studying? Noise-cancelling headphones are a game-changer. Want to capture all your memories in a tangible way? There’s a Fujifilm camera for that.

And, to stay comfortable throughout your study sessions, check out the Dyson HushJet Mini Cool Handheld Fan, a new mini fan that delivers powerful, quiet, and fast cooling.

All about student banking

Between tuition, textbooks, the cost of living, and limited income, it’s important to save wherever possible, and that includes your bank. That’s why the BMO Performance Chequing Account has no monthly plan fees while you’re in school and for up to one year after you graduate.

You also get unlimited transactions per month and unlimited Interac e-Transfer®§ transactions, so don’t worry about chipping in for your study group’s coffee run or sending your roommate your share of the rent. It’s your money that you can access when you want, how you want.

From late-night study sessions to gaming breaks, Best Buy Canada has technology that students actually use every day, and now with BMO, it’s yours for the choosing. Learn more about how you can upgrade your back-to-school setup by opening a BMO Student Chequing Account and exploring the available tech rewards.
