Protect your account from fraud and your relationships from (some) arguments

This month: a new account protection guarantee, plus business chequing with no monthly fees and up to 2.25% interest!

 

CHEQUING

Overdraft protection is here!

Instead of worrying that a surprise car repair will leave you short when the hydro bill gets automatically deducted from your chequing account, just turn on overdraft protection.* It uses your portfolio line of credit to automatically cover recurring bill payments and pre-authorized debits. Rates start at 3.95%, with no credit check, no surprise fees, and no minimum payments.

SECURITY UPDATES

Use a passkey to unlock our account guarantee

With our new account guarantee, if you're ever the victim of fraud or a scam, we’ll reimburse you for all direct losses from unauthorized activity on your account.4 All you need to do to be protected is set up and use a passkey — an extra security step involving your fingerprint or face ID, or a special PIN. And in case the idea of financial security isn't exciting enough to convince you, having a passkey also makes logging in faster.
