Instant Debit is where you login to your online banking over a secure payment gateway for instant authorization and debit of funds from your bank account to MyBTC.ca as the merchant. Instant Debit is compatible with CIBC, Scotia and Simplii Financial chequing and savings account holders with access to online banking.
