CDIC deposit protection

Funds added to Neo Chequing accounts are eligible for CDIC deposit protection. Here’s how it works:

The Neo Chequing account is offered by Neo Financial Technologies Inc. (“Neo”), a registered payment service provider under the Retail Payment Activities Act and a FINTRAC-registered money services business. The funds added to Neo Chequing accounts are ultimately held securely in trust in the name of the primary account holder with one or more member institutions of the Canada Deposit Insurance Corporation (“CDIC”). Neo is not a CDIC member institution; however, eligible funds held in trust are insured by CDIC for up to $100,000 of the total balance of funds held in trust per beneficiary, per member institution in the event of a member institution’s failure, provided certain disclosure rules are met.

Reopen a closed Neo Chequing account

While it's not currently possible to reopen a closed Neo Chequing account, you can open a new Neo Chequing account if you'd like.
