INTERAC e-Transfers† is a fast, secure way to send, request and receive money.

Interac e-Transfer is a convenient way to send, request and receive money directly from one bank account to another.

Receive money directly into your account with Autodeposit

The Autodeposit feature allows you to have money sent via Interac e-Transfer automatically deposited directly into your bank account, without having to answer a security question. The Autodeposit feature continues to provide the value of Interac e-Transfer, without the need to share financial information.

1. Log in to your financial institution's online or mobile banking and navigate to Autodeposit, typically found in the Interac e-Transfer settings.
2. Register your e-mail address and link your account. Any transfers to the registered email address will be automatically deposited into the account.
