The effect of a strong magnetic field on the location of the critical endpoint (CEP) in the QCD phase diagram is discussed under different scenarios. Inparticular, we consider the contribution of the vector interaction and takeinto account the inverse magnetic catalysis obtained in lattice QCDcalculations at zero chemical potential. The discussion is realized within the(2+1) Polyakov--Nambu--Jona-Lasinio model. It is shown that the vectorinteraction and the magnetic field have opposite competing effects, and thatthe winning effect depends strongly on the intensity of the magnetic field. Theinverse magnetic catalysis at zero chemical potential has two distinct effectsfor magnetic fields above $\gtrsim 0.3$ GeV$^2$: it shifts the CEP to lowerchemical potentials, hinders the increase of the CEP temperature and prevents atoo large increase of the baryonic density at the CEP. For fields $eB<0.1$GeV$^2$ the competing effects between the vector contribution and the magneticfield can move the CEP to regions of temperature and density in the phasediagram that could be more easily accessible to experiments.
