How-to transfer to others.

Transfer money to people at Scotiabank and other local banks. 


Understanding your Scotia account number: The first 5 digits in your account number represent the Branch Code which identifies the location your account was opened. 

 

Need to receive funds from another local bank? Be sure to have the sender check the number of characters required in the account number field. Depending on the other bank's requirements, your sender may need to add or omit the zeroes that follow the Branch Code. You may find your Branch Code here.

Let's get started.

Follow the steps below.

Step 1 - Launch the App and sign in.

Launch the Scotia Caribbean app and sign in. Depending on your security settings, you will need to verify your identity through FACE ID, Touch ID or by entering a verification code, that is sent to your registered email.

You should receive your verification code in your email's inbox immediately. If you don't see it, check your spam and/or promotions folder. If after a couple minutes, it's still not there, click the "Send me a verification code" link.
