FINTRAC requires merchants to provide the name and address of the beneficiary for each electronic funds transfer (EFT) that they submit for processing of $1,000 or more.
While the regulation requires this information for transactions of $1,000 or more, we highly recommend that you send it for all EFT transactions.
EFT records can be submitted using Files.com.
