About Capital One Canada.

For over 20 years, we’ve been on a mission to change banking for good and build relationships by making credit accessible, simple, intuitive and rewarding. We want to help Canadians succeed with credit, because we believe in people — in our customers, in our associates, and in talent like you! 

About the Team

Team Planet Express focuses on building Tech solutions for Terms domain and serves the Customer Management business under Canada Products and Capabilities (CPC) space. This team currently owns five business-focused solutions - Viper, Cost of Credit, MPIN, CreditCardInsurance and Canada Credit Authorization Decisioning.

Viper is the platform for Risk Based Pricing (RBP) decisioning and fulfillment. Risk Based Pricing refers to the act of changing customers’ annual interest rates to a pre-disclosed penalty rate in response to certain pre-disclosed conditions.


Cost of Credit solution enhances the customer experience and fosters trust by ensuring accurate reconciliation of credit card ownership costs. The solution targets seamless crediting of accounts closed by either customers or Capital One. 


MPIN workflow manages plastic numbers in Mastercard's records. Mastercard uses this information to determine how much interchange we should get. Ensuring up to date MPIN information protects Capital One's interchange revenue and keeps us compliant with the Code of Conduct.
