Actually, you are not sending money by email; only the notification travels over the Internet to advise the recipient that the transfer has been initiated and to provide instructions on how to deposit the money. The money always resides safely at a financial institution, and is transferred through existing payment networks that financial institutions have used for years to settle cheques, bank machine deposits and withdrawals.
Several measures have been built into the system, including:
- Encryption technology
- Confidential user IDs and passwords issued by financial institutions
- Secure login process
- A security question and answer to ensure only the intended recipient receives the money
- 128-bit browser encryption
- Login to online banking
- Locate Transfer/Payment menu options
- Specify a recipient by entering their email address
- Fill in the Interac Email Money Transfer information (dollar amount, account from which to withdraw the funds, a security question that only the recipient will know the answer to and optional personal message)
- Follow instructions to confirm the information and complete the transfer
