Making international payments and money transfers in Canadian Dollars is an easy and seamless process. International payments and money transfers can generally be made the same day using an advanced payment provider such as FTT.
Payments will need a unique bank code for the bank where the destination account is held. This can be a Canadian bank transit number or a SWIFT/BIC code:
- A transit number is 9 digits. For paper based transactions i.e. cheques, the format is XXXXX-YYY where XXXXX is the Branch number and YYY is the Institution number. However, for electronic payments the format starts with a leading zero, followed by the Institution number, then the Branch number. Thus an electronic payment code is represented as 0YYYXXXXX.
- A SWIFT/BIC code consists of between 8 and 11 capital letters and numbers.
