When receiving an INTERAC e-Transfer® for the first time in the new Digital Banking platform and if you had received INTERAC e-Transfers® previously, you may be presented with the Biggar & District Credit Union name and logo. If this is the case, please follow these steps:

1. Bypass selecting Biggar & District Credit Union/clicking on the logo
2. Scroll down to “Select a different financial institution”.
3. Select Biggar & District Credit Union from the list.
