Interac e-Transfers

OECU is pleased to offer e-tsf — the simple, secure way to transfer money from anywhere to anyone. All you need is an email address and/or mobile phone number.

As a sender, you don't need to know where the recipient banks, and they won't know where you bank — all account details and financial institutions are kept confidential.

It's Easy
🔒It's Secure
📱It's Convenient
🚀It's Quick

No new accounts needed. As long as both parties have online banking, all you need is the recipient's mobile number or email address.

Money never travels with the message. Recipients receive an encrypted link to deposit funds using their own banking credentials.

Funds arrive fast. Recipients are notified by email and/or text within approximately 30 minutes of the transfer being initiated.
