Direct deposits
Summary
A direct deposit is a secure electronic transfer of funds deposited directly into your bank account. Direct deposit replaces the need to receive payments by paper cheque.
Some examples of what you can set up as a direct deposit:
- Payroll (if direct deposit is supported by your employer)
- Income tax refund
- If eligible, government payments like the Canada Child Benefit (CCB), GST/HST credit, Canada Workers Benefit (CCB) and the Canada Emergency Response Benefit (CERB)
