We now accept Interac e-Transfers (EMT) from banking institutions that allow auto-deposits.  Please note that some banks (mainly credit unions such as Caisse Populaire) require a password for EMTs and we cannot accept these transfers – we can only accept auto-deposits.

All EMTs should be sent to [email protected] and include a message.  You MUST provide your email address and payment details using the Message option at the time of sending the EMT from your bank account (see below examples).  Otherwise, we may not be able to credit the appropriate account, or trace the payment back to you to clarify what it is for. It’s encouraged to include your Customer Number (CUST#) in the message, this can be found on invoices/statements and receipts – usually beginning with a JP or B for lease payments.

  3. Land Lease

The Financial Administration Law (FAL) is a commitment that we live by and contains four key sections that translate into NFN’s financial policies and procedures.  The Financial Management System (FMS) is the internal control designed to ensure ongoing compliance with NFN’s FAL.

NFN has a reputation for having strong financial administration, governance and management.
