How do I link my bank account to make money transfers with National Bank Direct Brokerage?

During the online process of opening an account online, you can link your bank account using the Flinks application.

If you are unable to link your account during the opening, or if you would like to link it another way, here are two options:

  • Send a void cheque via the secure Message Centre. If you are a National Bank client, you can simply send us the Transit and 7-digit account numbers.
  • Send us a cheque for at least $25 by mail. Remember to write “Indexing from account to profile” on the cheque’s notes section. We’ll deposit the cheque and, once cleared (within 10 days), we’ll link your bank account to your brokerage account.

Note that only one bank account per currency can be added to a client’s profile.

The request to add a USD bank account or to modify an already-linked account to a profile will be analyzed by the NBDB team.

To go over the requested documents, contact a member of our team through the secure Message Centre or by calling us at 1-800-363-3511.
