You can transfer funds between your DUCA account and your account at another Canadian financial institution using our Me-2-Me feature within online banking. When using this feature, transfers will be automatically scheduled for the next day, though they may take several days to complete.

To get started, simply complete and submit our Me-to-Me form.

Our Table of Limits outlines the maximum limits associated with sending and receiving Interac e-Transfers®, Me-to-Me transfers (which are transfers you set up between your DUCA account and your account at another Canadian Financial Institution), and limits associated with depositing cheques to your account by Remote Capture through DUCA's mobile app.

Click here to view our Table of Limits.

Note: Transaction limits are subject to change without notice.

Interac e-Transfers® : Funds are available immediately. No hold placed on funds.

Incoming Me-to-Me Transfers: Funds placed on hold  up to 8 calendar days prior to availability.

Remote Cheque Deposits: Funds placed on hold  up to 7 calendar days prior to availability.

Autodeposit is a convenient feature that allows you to receive Interac e-Transfers^® directly into an assigned account without the need to select your financial institution or answer a security question.

Once you’ve registered your email address with Autodeposit, any money sent to you using that email will be automatically deposited into your account.

The sender is made aware in online banking that you are registered for Autodeposit. It’s quick, secure, and eliminates extra steps.

A Payment Request is an Interac e-Transfer® feature that allows you to send a secure email request for someone to pay you. When the recipient receives your Payment Request, they are provided with clear instructions to make the payment. Once they agree to pay, the funds are deposited directly into your account. It’s a simple, secure, and efficient way to request and receive money.

Yes. If the transaction has not yet been received by the recipient, you can choose to cancel the transaction from the Pending e-Transfers® screen. 

Interac e-Transfers^® expire 30 days after they’re sent or requested. After 30 days, the recipient will not be able to receive and deposit the funds. Senders and requestors can send reminder notices to recipients from the Pending e-Transfers screen in online banking. If a recipient fails to receive and deposit funds within 30 days, the sender will be notified by email to deposit the funds back into their account, with the exception of any non-refundable service fee(s).

We offer several options for bill payments:

1. Through online banking
2. From the DUCA mobile app

What constitutes an NSF fee?

An NSF fee may arise when your account lacks the necessary funds to complete a transaction. This often happens if you forget to deposit funds for a recurring monthly bill or if a recipient doesn't promptly cash a check you've written. If the recipient later cashes the check when your account balance is insufficient, DUCA may decline the transaction and impose an NSF fee. It's important to note that each attempted transaction with insufficient funds may incur an NSF fee.

How can I determine if an NSF fee has been applied?

NSF fees are typically applied promptly when there's an insufficient balance for a transaction. However, it might take 1 to 2 business days before you spot the charge reflected in your online banking statement.

How can I avoid NSF fee?

Track your activity on your account: Regularly monitoring your account transactions and scheduled payments is essential for staying informed about your financial activities. Ensuring that your account maintains sufficient funds to cover your financial commitments is crucial for preventing a negative balance.

Avail Overdraft Protection: Opting for overdraft protection is a choice available for application. It provides coverage for your transactions, allowing them to go through up to a predefined limit, even if your bank account lacks sufficient funds. This serves as a preventive measure against incurring NSF fees.

Q: What is 2-Step Verification?

A: 2-Step Verification is the new heightened industry standard for account protection. It means that when you log in to your online banking profile, prior to gaining access to your account, you will receive a verification code sent by text, voice call and/or email.  You then have 10 minutes to enter that code to access your online profile.

Q: Is 2-Step Verification required?

A: Yes. All Members who use online banking must enroll in 2-Step Verification as it provides a higher level of security.

Q: Will security challenge questions still be required?

A: No. After enrolment in 2-Step Verification, challenge questions and answers will be eliminated since 2-Step Verification, which is based on codes valid for only a few minutes, are more secure.

Q: Can I register for 2-Step Verification via both SMS Text, Voice Call and Email?

A: Yes, however, not at the initial enrolment. During their initial enrolment, a Member can register only one of a mobile phone number, email address or voice call number to receive 2-Step Verification codes.  After enrolment, you can add a second notification channel the next time you are logged in.
 
Q: What happens if I fail to provide the correct verification code?  

A: The account will lock and you must call Member Connect.

Q: What if the verification code does not come through?

A: Wait a reasonable amount of time for the notification to arrive. If it does not, use the “send new code” option.

Q: How long is the verification code valid?

A: Ten minutes.

Q: What types of online banking transactions will require additional 2-Step Verification?

A: The following types of transactions will now prompt you to enter a security code before the transaction can be successfully completed:

• Resetting your password
• Editing 2-Step Verification settings
• Adding a new or changing an existing Interac e-Transfer contact
• Adding bill payment payees

Q: Is there an option to designate a device as a ‘trusted’ device, exempting logins from that device from additional authentications?

A: Yes. After entering a verification code, you have the option to select "Don't ask me again next time I log in from this device."

Q: Will enrolment in 2-Step Verification affect any of my current digital banking configurations or settings?

A: Yes. After setting up 2-step Verification, you must re-set up Biometrics (Touch/Face ID), QuickView, and Memorized Accounts, if you wish to use those features. All other aspects of online banking will remain unchanged.

Q: How do I change my Password for online and mobile banking?
 A: Log in to your online profile and click on Profile and Preferences under the Account Services section to change your Password.  First, enter your current Password and then your new Password. Verify it by entering it again. Your new Password must have a minimum of 9 characters, both upper and lowercase letters, a number, and at least one special character (@, #, % or ! ONLY).

Note: If you use a special character other than the ones listed above, your 2-Step Verification will not work. 

Q: What If I forgot my password?

A: Click the "Forgot Password" link on the login page and follow the prompts to reset your password by completing the verification questions.

Note: If you are not enrolled in 2-Step Verification, the "Forgot Password" link will not work, and you will see an error message on the "Please Verify Yourself" screen. In this case, please contact Member Connect or visit a branch to reset your password.

Q: Is there a limit to how many times I can submit an incorrect verification code from the Enter Your Verification Code screen?

A: If an incorrect verification code is entered three times in a row during a Password reset, you will be locked out and must then contact DUCA.

Q: Is there a limit to how many times I can submit an incorrect password?

A: If an incorrect password is entered three times in a row, you will be locked out from the account.

If that happens, you can use the “Forgot Password” feature to create a new password. However, if you wish to use the same password, then you will have to contact DUCA to have the account unlocked.

Q: Is this feature available for Businesses? 

A: No, this feature is not available for Business accounts on the Business platform at this time.
