You can register and deregister your personal email for auto-deposit to KOHO at any time in-app.
Option 3: Deposit to your KOHO account from the Interac® portal
When receiving an Interac® e-Transfer (from yourself or someone else) you can choose to deposit those funds to KOHO from Interac®'s portal:
Tip: If you need to create a security answer/password, don't use any special characters (-, !, ?), otherwise the e-Transfer will be declined.
If your e-Transfer isn't Loading:
Check that the notification type is Email and not Phone/SMS when creating the e-transfer to send to KOHO.
