Why direct deposit?
Direct Deposit puts the money right in your account. With a cheque, sometimes your bank might place a “hold” on the funds. Holds can last for up to five business days.
Money only goes in
Direct Deposit moves money one way only: from us to you. We can’t go into your account and take it back. You always control who can access your account.
Yes, its secure.
At Manulife, we take privacy very seriously. We know how important it is to protect it from data breaches, fraud, and theft. You trust us to maintain your privacy. We secure your information.
