Frequently Asked Questions
Accessing your Accounts
After the banking migration is complete, how will I access Online Banking?
If you were set up on Rapport’s online banking platform prior to April 11, you can log in to WFCU’s banking system using your existing Rapport credentials. However, please note the following:
- You must use a web browser (not the mobile app) when you log in for the first time
- You will be asked to select your branch from the dropdown menu
- You will need to UPPERCASE any letters in your current Rapport Personal Access Code (PAC)/password, e.g. Wfcu1234 = WFCU1234
- Once logged in, you will be prompted to update your PAC/password to ensure your credentials meet WFCU security requirements.
New to online banking?
If you were not previously signed up for online banking, you must contact our Member Contact Centre (1-888-516-6664) or visit your branch to sign up and be issued a temporary PAC/password.
After the banking migration is complete, how will I access Mobile Banking?
After April 11, you will need to download the WCFU Mobile Banking app and perform a one-time password reset on a web browser of your choice to use the app going forward.
The Rapport Mobile Banking app will no longer be in service after April 11, 2025, and should be deleted from all Rapport member mobile devices.
First Time/New to Mobile Banking
If you were not previously signed up for mobile banking, you must download the WFCU Mobile Banking app through your device’s app store and contact our Member Contact Centre (1-888-516-6664) or visit your branch to be issued a temporary PAC/password.
Will my Rapport debit card continue to work throughout the banking migration?
Yes, your current Rapport debit card and PIN will continue working on April 11 as well as after the migration is completed.
Can I continue to use my current Rapport cheques?
Yes, your existing cheques will still work. There is no need to order new ones.
INTERAC e-Transfers
Pre-migration
Will my INTERAC e-Transfer contacts carry forward to the WFCU Banking System?
No, your INTERAC e-Transfer contacts will not transfer over to the WFCU banking system and will require you to re-enter them. We recommend you download or print off a copy of all your INTERAC e-Transfer contacts prior to April 9.
I sent an e-Transfer, but it hasn’t been accepted yet.
Because of the banking migration, we had to disable e-Transfers on April 9. This also impacts any e-Transfers that were not deposited by the sender or recipient by April 9. These have all been cancelled, and you will have to send them or request them again after April 12 once you have access to your accounts at WFCU.
I received an e-Transfer from a financial institution outside of Rapport that I have not accepted by April 9, will that also be cancelled by INTERAC?
No, any e-Transfer originating from another financial institution will not be cancelled if not accepted by April 9. Once the migration is complete on April 12, and you have completed the one-time password reset through Online Banking, you will be able to accept any pending e-Transfers from financial institutions outside of Rapport. Simply select WFCU Credit Union, instead of Rapport Credit Union, from the dropdown list when depositing your funds.
Post-migration
I have Autodeposit turned on for one of my Rapport accounts. Will that be transferred to the WFCU Banking System?
No, all Autodeposits currently set up for Rapport accounts will be de-activated on April 9. You will need to re-activate the Autodeposit feature post-merger after April 12 on the WFCU Online Banking platform.
How will I accept an e-Transfer after April 12? Is it the same?
After April 12, you will undergo the same process to accept INTERAC e-Transfers with one notable difference. You will now need to select WFCU as the credit union instead of Rapport when accepting the INTERAC e-Transfer. If you select Rapport, you will be redirected to the old system and encounter an error.
Online Banking Functionality
Will I be able to access my account history once my membership is migrated over to WFCU’s banking system?
If you previously used e-statements, 7-year historical statements will be available through WFCU online banking following banking conversion.
Will my bill payment vendors be moved over to my WFCU account?
Yes, we will transfer your current bill payees to your WFCU account(s). However, we are unable to transfer your Interac e-Transfers® recipients. Therefore, we recommend downloading or printing out a list of your Interac e-Transfer recipients before April 9 so they are easily accessible when setting them up again on WFCU’s online banking.
Will my pre-authorized bill payments transfer over to the WFCU banking system?
Your pre-authorized bill payments will transfer to the WFCU banking system starting on April 12. Remember that bill payments will now take up to 4 days to be received, so any pre-authorized bill payments within 4 days of the bill due date will need to be adjusted to avoid late payments.
What if I’d like to find something from the Rapport banking system that is no longer available on WFCU’s system?
Great care and effort have been made to ensure everything transitioned to WFCU’s banking system however if you have any questions or need help locating something on WFCU’s online banking, please contact our Member Contact Centre at 1-888-516-6664 or visit your local branch.
