Electronic Transaction
With your customer's signed
authorization, we can process one-time or monthly EFT debits to their
Canadian bank account. Payments are processed in Canadian dollar
so there is no currency conversion impact to your customers.
Account holder Authorization
Canadian banking rules require all electronic debits to be authorized,
in advance, through a signed consent form.
We have prepared a form which is available for download and use with
your customers.
