Online Bill Pay is a fast and secure way to send Canadian Dollars (CAD) from your local bank to Flywire. This method is typically processed within 2–3 business days, making it quicker than a traditional bank transfer.
Supported Canadian Banks
You can use the Online Bill Pay method if you bank with any of the following Canadian institutions:
- Royal Bank of Canada (RBC)
- Bank of Montreal (BMO)
- Banque Nationale (BNC)
- TD Canada Trust (TD)
- Banque Laurentienne (BLC)
- Tangerine Bank
- ATB Financial
- Central 1 (Supporting over 295 credit unions)
Steps to Complete Your Transfer
After you create your payment request on the Flywire website, follow these steps to send your funds:
- Log in to your online banking: Access your personal bank’s website or mobile app and navigate to the Bill Pay or Transfers section.
- Add Flywire as a payee: If this is your first time paying us, you will need to add Flywire to your biller list. Search for "Flywire" in the payee/biller search bar. If your bank asks for the payee’s province, please enter "Ontario".
- Enter your payment details: When prompted for an account number, enter the payee account number provided in your Flywire instructions. Then, enter the exact CAD amount displayed in your Flywire payment instructions.
- Confirm and send: Review the details and confirm the transaction. Once finished, we will track your payment and send you a confirmation email as soon as the funds are received.
Note: If you cannot find a payee account number on your instructions, you likely selected standard Bank Transfer instead of Online Bill Pay by mistake. You will need to cancel your current request and create a new one using the correct method.
What to Do if Your Payment is Delayed
If it has been more than 3 business days and your Flywire tracking page hasn't updated to "Received," please contact our Support team.
To help us find your funds quickly, please have the following ready:
- Your bank’s reference number for the transaction.
- A digital copy of your proof of payment (a bank receipt or a clear screenshot from your online banking portal showing both the sender and receiver details).
Important: Always ensure you create a new payment request on the Flywire platform before sending funds. This ensures your Payment ID is active and your money is typically delivered to your institution without delay.
