Interac e-Transfer at Roobet: deposit and withdraw

Roobet’s Help Center covers Interac for both deposits and withdrawals. You pick Interac in the cashier, enter an amount and your mobile number, and finish the transfer through a Gigadat page connected to your own online banking. The article warns that a deposit may take longer to show up, and that it may take 1-3 business days to reach your financial institution. It does not give limits, fees or the currency.

What the Help Center says

The article is titled “How to Deposit and Withdraw with Interac”, and two shorter ones sit next to it: one on configuring Autodeposit for Interac, and one on finding the 8-digit Interac reference number. We read the main article on 30 October 2026. It lists seven deposit steps and seven withdrawal steps, and it names Gigadat as the page where the bank part happens.

How to deposit with Interac

  1. In the cashier, choose Interac as the deposit method, enter the amount and add your mobile phone number.
  2. Click Deposit, then Continue transaction on the confirmation page.
  3. You land on Gigadat. Log in to your online banking, select Interac e-Transfer and add the requested details before the time runs out.
  4. Click Return to Merchant and complete the next two pages.
  5. Click Continue to review the transfer, then complete and send the deposit.
  6. Roobet shows a confirmation that it was sent, and you get an email once Interac sends the deposit.

How to withdraw with Interac

Choose Interac as the withdrawal method and enter the amount, your email address and your mobile number. After you confirm, Roobet notifies you and Gigadat confirms the request and sends the next steps. A password arrives at your registered email address to accept the funds, then you select the financial institution and enter the password sent by text or email.

Autodeposit is the option that spares you from confirming each Interac withdrawal by email. The article on it says only that the exact process varies by institution and that Roobet support cannot set it up for you: you have to contact your bank.

What is not published

  • minimum and maximum amounts for Interac;
  • fees on this route (the terms mention a 1% fee on fiat deposits and 2% from the tenth fiat withdrawal in 30 days; the cashier shows what applies);
  • the currency of the transfer, and whether it is available in every province;
  • how long a withdrawal takes.

Use your own bank account, since the terms allow deposits only with methods and wallets that belong to you. Before a first deposit the cashier asks for an identity check, covered in the sign-up guide. Other routes are in Roobet payments, and problems with a transfer go to support. Start with an amount you can afford to lose.
