Troubleshooting
There are a few things to remember when making an Interac Request Money transfer to your CAD Wallet:
Your Named Account: We can only accept transfers from bank accounts opened under your own name. 3rd party transfers will not be accepted (e.g. payments from your friends or family, customers, salary transferred by your employer, etc.)
We do not accept CAD transfers via 3rd party payments processing companies (e.g. Western Union, Wise, Stripe), or crypto exchanges.
You have 24 hours to approve the request money from your bank app / portal. The request will expire after 24 hours and you will need to create a new request
If you forget to tap on “Authorise'' on the Authorise Deposit screen, you can retrieve the link to go to your bank app / portal from your email. You must have received an email from Interac with the link
Common Issues: The most common reasons your bank transfer is on hold or is unsuccessful are:
The name on the bank account you transferred from does not match the name you used to register on Crypto.com
Your transferred funds came from a joint account
Your request has expired since it has been over 24 hours
When contacting our support, please be ready to provide us with supporting documents (e.g. a bank statement) showing your full name, the bank account you made the transfer from, and ideally, the transaction itself.
