Definition

What is Interac?

Interac is a card network that lets customers pay you online with credit or debit cards — accepted in Canada.

Interac is a card payment network accepted in Canada. Customers enter their card details (or autofill a saved card) on a secure checkout page and the transaction is authorised in seconds. Accept Canada's leading debit card — the dominant payment method for Canadian consumers.

With PayRequest, you can issue a Interac payment link and share it through any channel: WhatsApp, email, SMS, social media, QR codes, or printed invoices. The hosted checkout is PCI-compliant, mobile-optimised, and supports 3D-Secure authentication out of the box.

Cards work as the universal fallback alongside local methods like iDEAL, Bancontact and SEPA — your single PayRequest link adapts to whatever the customer prefers. PayRequest charges 0% on top of your provider's card processing fees.

FAQ

Interac payment links

How does a Interac payment link work?
Create a link in PayRequest. Your customer opens it on any device, enters card details (or uses saved card / Apple Pay autofill), and confirms. Money lands in your provider's account within minutes.
Which providers support Interac?
Interac is supported by Stripe and Mollie via PayRequest. Connect your provider and Interac is automatically available on every link.
What does Interac cost?
Interac processing rates depend on your provider — typically 1.4% + €0.25 for European cards or 2.9% + €0.25 for international. PayRequest charges 0% on top.
Is it safe to send a Interac link via WhatsApp?
Yes — the link itself is just a URL. Card details are entered on PayRequest's secure, PCI-compliant checkout page, encrypted in transit, never visible in the message itself.
Can I do a Interac pre-authorisation (deposit)?
Yes. PayRequest supports security deposits — you authorise a card without charging it, hold for up to 30 days, then capture or release. Perfect for rentals, bookings and damage deposits.
