What is it?
An Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) is the electronic transfer of money from one account to another, either within a single financial institution or across multiple institutions. Outside of Canada, EFT is referred to as ACH (Automated Clearing House).
Why is it important?
A number of EFT systems are used at ÐÓ°ÉÔ´´. They aid in faster, more accurate processing by reducing duplicate data entry and through the ability to process large volumes of data in a short time frame. Examples include:
- payroll and reimbursements to employees are done via direct deposit
- direct deposit is offered to our suppliers through Accounts Payable
- most students pay their tuition either through the electronic bill payment system offered by Canadian banks or electronically through our partnership with Western Union Global Solutions.
