Code of Conduct

View information about the Code of Conduct for the Payment Card Industry in Canada, and the TD Merchant Solutions Code of Conduct complaint handling process.


How the Code of Conduct affects your business

In October 2024, amendments were made to the Code of Conduct for the Payment Card Industry in Canada (the Code), including revisions to existing and creation of new policy elements. We encourage you to view all policy elements

TD Bank Group continues to support the evolution of the Code, and believes it provides Merchants a greater voice in the payments market, while also balancing the interests of the other participants in this industry.


Handling complaints

The Code provides Merchants with access to a clear dispute resolution process, allowing for an investigation and timely response on complaints pertaining to the Code.

Your satisfaction is the basis of our business, and we want to provide you with the best experience we can when you do business with TD Merchant Solutions, by addressing your complaint as quickly and effectively as possible.
