Direct Service Agreements
Direct Service Agreement: Personal Accounts
Effective December 14, 2020, modifications were made to the Direct Services Agreement for Personal Accounts. These include minor information and grammatical changes for enhanced clarity, and material changes including acceptable use, behaviour, notifications and reimbursements regarding Interac e-Transfer†.
We have added and clarified the wording around the following:
Page 2 section 1, Definitions and Interpretation, We added “Wrongful Activity” and defined it as any use or attempted use of Interac e-Transfer Services that is fraudulent, unauthorized, in bad faith or improper, whether for financial gains or otherwise.
Page 6 section 28, Interac e-Transfer, subsection f) We’ve clarified the confidentiality requirement that members not share the Interac e-Transfer Answer with anyone but the intended recipient, that the Answer cannot be easily determined nor shared in the email or phone number used to send the Interac e-Transfer Notice.
Page 6 section 28, Interac e-Transfer, subsection i) We’ve added information to clarify SCU is not liable for any cost, expense, loss, damage or inconvenience as a result of a Third Party, other than the intended recipient, guessing or obtaining an Interac e-Transfer Answer through any means other than Wrongful Activity. As well, where an intercepted transaction occurs and the funds do not reach your intended recipient, you may receive reimbursement provided you did not participate in the Wrongful Activity and fully cooperate with the investigation.
Page 6 section 28, Interac e-Transfer, subsection k) We added information that transactions sent via account number, payment identifier, Autodeposit or Request Money may be automatically deposited into the account of the recipient.
Page 6 section 28 Interac e-Transfer, subsection m) We clarified that SCU cannot guarantee an Interac e-Transfer Notice will be delivered within 30 minutes and that we cannot guarantee the time of deposit.
Page 6 section 28 Interac e-Transfer, subsection v) This new subsection clarifies that the member is responsible for any charges related to transmitting and receiving data.
Page 6 section 28 Interac e-Transfer, subsection w) This new subsection explains that if you, as a recipient, have activated the Autodeposit feature, there is no requirement to provide an Interac e-Transfer Answer as the funds are automatically deposited into your account. This is subject to the sender’s financial institution offering the Autodeposit feature.
Page 6 section 28 Interac e-Transfer Services, subsection x) This subsection was added to clarify that when you request funds through Interac e-Transfer Services you must have the other party’s consent to provide their Interac e-Transfer Contact Information to SCU, the other participating Financial Institution and Interac Corp.
Page 6 section 28 Interac e-Transfer, subsection y) This subsection was added to confirm that when sending funds, it’s your responsibility to provide complete and accurate information about the recipient, and when you are a recipient, that you respond only to requests you are expecting and have consented to receiving.
