Overview

Simplii's chequing account provides unlimited everyday transactions and access to supported CIBC ATMs without a recurring monthly account fee.

Its Debit Mastercard uses Interac for Canadian in-store purchases and Mastercard for supported online and international purchases. Simplii has no retail branches, but supports Canadian-dollar cheque writing, mobile cheque deposit, and joint accounts. Banking service is unavailable in Quebec.

The account pays tiered interest, but this catalog does not display a numeric rate until it can be reliably verified from the official rate source.

Incoming and outgoing wire transfers are supported for a fee. Although CIBC provides Simplii Financial banking services, Simplii accounts cannot be serviced at CIBC banking centres.
