A part of the Niagara Community for over 40 Years
We began in 1961 as a small financial service company offering third-party credit processing for local retailers. Over the next two decades we provided support in the form of credit-processing facilities for the expanding, nation-wide network of Canadian Tire stores. Concentration of all our efforts on Canadian Tire during this period enabled us to rapidly develop the skills we needed for high-speed, high-volume transaction processing. We also subsequently changed our name, first to Canadian Tire Acceptance Limited and then to Canadian Tire Financial Services Limited (CTFSL).
In 1995, CTFSL became the first non-deposit taking, financial institution worldwide to launch a Mastercard called the Options Mastercard. Today, we have grown our Mastercard portfolio to four million cardmembers.
CTB was established in 2003 and it acquired the MasterCard Portfolio from CTFSL. In 2014, Canadian Tire updated its loyalty program allowing members and Options Mastercard cardholders to collect electronic Canadian Tire Money (CT Money®) under the My Canadian Tire Money program. In the Spring of 2018, Canadian Tire changed the name of its loyalty program to Triangle Rewards™. As a result, CTB currently issues the Triangle Mastercard, Triangle World Mastercard and Triangle World Elite Mastercard in addition to its Gas Advantage® Mastercard and Cash Advantage® Mastercard. It currently employs more than 1,600 people, with offices in Welland, St. Catharines, and Oakville, Ontario. We contribute significantly to Canadian Tire Corporation's annual profits, positioning us as an important player in the financial services industry. We operate state-of-the-art contact centres in Welland and St. Catharines, which provide world class customer service to our valued Canadian Tire customers nationwide.
