How e-Transfers Work at TD

Interac e-Transfer is Canada’s near-real-time electronic payment network operated by Interac Corp. When you send an e-Transfer from TD:

  1. TD debits your account immediately
  2. Interac notifies the recipient by email or text
  3. The recipient logs into their bank’s online banking and accepts the transfer
  4. The recipient’s bank credits their account — typically within minutes

With Autodeposit enabled, step 3 is automatic — funds deposit without any action by the recipient.

How to Send a TD e-Transfer

Via TD EasyWeb (desktop):

  1. Log in at easyweb.td.com
  2. Click TransfersSend Interac e-Transfer
  3. Select the account to send from
  4. Choose an existing contact or add a new one (email or mobile)
  5. Enter the amount (up to $3,000)
  6. Add a message (optional) and a security question (required if recipient doesn’t have Autodeposit)
  7. Review and confirm

Via TD app (mobile):

  1. Open the TD app and log in
  2. Tap Move MoneyInterac e-Transfer
  3. Select Send
  4. Follow the same steps as above

Transfers can be scheduled for future dates or set up as recurring transfers.

TD e-Transfer Security

Security question: When sending to a recipient without Autodeposit, you create a security question and answer that the recipient must answer correctly to claim the money. Do not send the answer in the same message/email as the transfer notification.

Autodeposit (recommended): With Autodeposit, the recipient’s bank automatically deposits funds without requiring a security question. This eliminates the risk of the security answer being intercepted. Anyone can set up Autodeposit in their bank’s online banking — both sender and recipient using Autodeposit provides the strongest security.

Expiry: Unclaimed e-Transfers expire after 30 days and are automatically returned to the sender’s account.

How to Request a Higher TD e-Transfer Limit

If the standard $3,000/day limit is insufficient:

  • Call TD: 1-866-222-3456 (24/7)
  • Visit a TD branch and speak with a banking advisor
  • Send a request through TD EasyWeb secure messaging

Higher limits are not guaranteed and are reviewed on a case-by-case basis. For routine large payments, a wire transfer ($15–$25 domestic fee) is more practical than requesting a permanent limit increase.
