Keep in mind that we've visually updated the 'Request via app' e-Transfer deposit method on Newton to comply with our payment provider’s requirements, and most importantly - to ensure it remains free for you!

The new request email shows you as the money requester, not Newton, but your funds will still be deposited into your Newton account as before.

Once the e-Transfer has been successfully deposited into your Newton account, the confirmation email will contain additional information, including the name of one of our payment vendors, People’s Trust. Your funds have now landed in your Newton account.

Note: some banks do not support 'Request via app'. If your bank does not support this method, you can instead fund your account via 'Transfer from bank', if this method is available to you. For a list of banks that support the 'Request via app' method of e-Transfer, please see the following link:: Interac e-Transfer Enhanced Features.
