FAQs

Who does Coast Capital work with to bring Money Manager to members?

We’ve partnered with MX Technologies, an industry-leading personal financial management provider based in the United States, to offer a cutting-edge solution and digital experience that will give you the benefit of accessing these tools directly within Coast Online Banking and the Coast Mobile Banking app.

Is my financial information secure?

Yes. Steps have been taken to assess and ensure that the highest level of security and privacy of your information has been met. Coast Capital Savings reviews the security safeguards of Third Parties to ensure they employ equivalent or better security to protect sensitive Member data. As your financial information is transferred to the Third-Party, MX Technologies, this transfer of information adheres to recognized best practices in authentication, authorization, and masking of sensitive data.

How is Money Manager different from other personal financial management tools?

Many other personal financial management tools require you to use a separate app, and in some cases pay a monthly subscription fee. Money Manager is available right in the Coast Capital app you already use, can integrate with your accounts at other financial institutions and is free to use. It’s a win-win!


How do I access Money Manager? What are the recommended browsers?

You can access Money Manager by logging in to digital banking through Coast Online Banking or the Coast Mobile Banking app and clicking on Money Tools, then Money Manager from the menu. If you don’t have Money Manager turned on yet, just click the Turn on Money Manager button.
You’ll get the best Money Manager experience using Google Chrome, Firefox or Microsoft Edge. Members may experience issues accessing Money Manager using Internet Explorer 11 (IE11).


Why am I being asked for a “Token” when adding an external account?

This means your external financial institution has two-factor authenticated enabled. Check your email or texts for a verification code from your other financial institution.

How can I hide Coast Capital accounts from Money Manager?

If you have accounts you don’t want to show in Money Manager (like a joint account with a child, for example), you can hide the account. This will stop information or transactions from the account from factoring in to other tabs in Money Manager. The data related to it won’t be deleted, and can easily be unhidden in the future.
  1. Bring up the Account Details window of the account to hide
  2. Tap the ••• icon and select Hide Account from the dropdown menu. A warning message will appear asking them to confirm they'd like to hide the account
  3. Tap Hide to confirm
Hidden accounts will still be visible at the bottom of the accounts list in the Accounts tab. Their icons will be greyed out and marked as Hidden.

Why doesn’t my Coast Capital LOC/HELOC/BLOC/ODP show in Debts or Net Worth?

At Coast Capital, we attach these products to a chequing account, so Money Manager is mistaking them for assets. We are investigating a solution. In the meantime, please manually add these to your calculations.


Why isn’t my external account linking?

If you’re sure your credentials are correct, also double check that you’re attempting to link the correct company as some may have multiple names in the list. If you’re still encountering issues, please contact us.

The CRA aims to process your direct deposit enrolment or information updates in one or two business days. Given the current environment, you may experience longer than usual processing times once your financial institution has sent your information to the CRA.


If you are fully registered for CRA’s My Account, you can verify your direct deposit information through this online self-service portal.

You can verify that the payment has been received by checking your balance on the account you used to sign up for direct deposit. Your payment amount will be deposited directly into the account.

You can also confirm that the payment was sent by the CRA by logging into CRA’s My Account.

The CRA will never send you an email, text or Interac e-transfer to a link asking for your personal information to receive your benefit payment or refund. These are scams and taxpayers should never respond to these fraudulent communications or click on any of the links provided. If you submit multiple requests to update your direct deposit information, the most recent enrolment you complete will become the account on file with the Canada Revenue Agency. Direct deposits will only be made into one account, at one financial institution.

You only need to enrol once. If you submit multiple requests to update your direct deposit information, the most recent enrolment you complete will become the account on file with the CRA. Direct deposits will only be made into one account, at one financial institution.

If for whatever reason you cannot or choose not to use Coast Online Banking, we will have a process available soon for our branches and Contact Centre to record and enter the necessary banking information which will then be automatically sent to CRA on your behalf.

We expect to offer the functionality to register with CRA direct deposit within Coast Online Banking sometime the week of April 6, 2020. We will update messaging on our website to notify members once the service is available.

Not at this time. The CRA direct deposit service being offered via online banking is only applicable for personal members for the time being.
