From pre-authorizing payments to getting paid, void cheques still come in handy\u2026 even though cheques are rarely used in Canada. The main reason you need an UNI Financial void cheque is to share your banking information with someone else.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Understanding Your UNI Financial\u00a0 Void cheque<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
\u00a0<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

If you know what the numbers at the bottom of your UNI Financial\u00a0 void cheque mean, you can probably just share them\u2026 without having to go looking for a void cheque in your banking portal every time someone asks for one.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

So, here are the important features of a cheque in Canada that you should be able to recognize by looking at one :<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

1. Your home address<\/h4>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

This is the information you don\u2019t need to look at a void cheque to know. However, it is often needed by those who ask you for a void cheque.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

2. Your branch address<\/h4>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

This is the address of your UNI Financial branch. Note that some UNI Financial branches have more than one point of service.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

3. Your branch transit number<\/h4>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

This is a 5-digit number that identifies the UNI Financial\u00a0 branch to which your bank account is associated.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

4. Your bank Institution Number<\/h4>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The institution number is a three-digit number that identifies the financial institution you are dealing with, regardless of the branch you have chosen. UNI Financial \u2019s institution number is 865.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

5. Your account number (or folio number)<\/h4>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The account (or folio) number is the identifier for your bank account. Without the transit number and institution number, it cannot be used to transfer money. As a result, it is the most sensitive information you will find on your void cheque, as it is the number that is associated with your bank account. This number varies in length depending on the financial institution but generally ranges from 7 to 12 digits.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Before the Internet, a void cheque was a paper cheque with \u201cSAMPLE\u201d or \u201cVOID\u201d written on it to ensure that the cheque could not be used. If you have a chequebook, you can still do this. In fact, a void cheque is a document that contains all the information displayed on a cheque, so you can still do it that way.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

For those who don\u2019t want to waste paper or who don\u2019t have a chequebook, it\u2019s possible to get a void cheque from UNI Financial by logging in to their online banking portal. Follow the steps below to download a void cheque in PDF in just a few clicks:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
