The standard daily withdrawal limit is $1,005 at Scotiabank ATMs for chequing accounts. At non-Scotiabank ATMs, Tangerine charges $1.50 per withdrawal plus the ATM operator’s own fee.

Unlike the Big Five banks, which have hundreds or thousands of branch-specific transit numbers, Tangerine is an online bank with no branch network — all clients effectively use the same transit number. To set up direct deposit or CRA payment routing, generate a void cheque image from the Tangerine app — this is the most reliable method and includes your unique account number alongside the transit and institution numbers.
