Receiving funds via email transfer (Plooto)

Email transfer  is available for Collective Agreement funds, honoraria, or expenses that are administered by CUPE 3903. CUPE 3903 cannot disperse money the Local does not administer. Therefore the Local cannot arrange for e-transfer of funds or payments from York University or others groups.

Members must opt to receive e-transfer when filling in their fund application, honoraria or expense form. If members have not done so a cheque will be cut. The cheque will either be mailed or made available for pickup from the union office as requested. Members who have opted for e-transfer payments can find instructions on how to access payments through Plooto here.
