Interac Debit
What Is Interac Debit?
The Interac Association, or simply Interac, is a Canadian nonprofit interbank network that links financial institutions to exchange electronic financial transactions. Interac was founded in 1984 as a cooperative venture between RBC, CIBC, Scotiabank, TD, and Desjardins. Interac serves as the Canadian debit card system, as the traditional interac debit card providers (Visa and MasterCard) now rarely provide debit cards in Canada.
How Interac Debit Payment Processing Works
1) Customer makes a purchase with their debit card; it is processed with the Interac Direct Payment service.The merchant enters the total into their POS.
2) Customer either Taps or inserts their EMV chip card into the chip reader and enters their PIN if required. The account to be debited is selected by the customer.
3) The sale is transmitted through the Interac system where the purchaser’s financial institution verifies the debit card, the PIN, and that the funds are available in the account. The purchase is then complete.
4)A receipt of the transaction is given to the customer.
