Important Steps for Preparing & Delivering your Wallet Deposits

The Wallet Depository service is designed for business clients who: deposit large amounts of cash, coin, or cheques; would like to reduce exposure when making deposits; prefer not to wait in the branch while deposits are processed; or have business needs which may include banking outside regular banking hours.

Below are some important steps to help ensure the security and prompt processing of your wallet deposits:

  • Please ensure you use the correct deposit slip to avoid confusion, delay and minimize processing errors
  • Preparing and delivering your deposits in the presence of 2 or more employees will increase deposit accuracy and provide additional security to both your employees and your deposits
  • Including only 1 deposit per deposit wallet will avoid confusion and minimize processing errors
  • Using a CIBC approved, tamper-evident, plastic wallet bag will minimize potential avoidable losses

When preparing and making your wallet/night deposit:

  1. Make sure you are using the:
    • Business Account Deposit Slip, non-ABM (for In-branch or Wallet/Night deposits)
  2. Clearly printing all information on the deposit slip, including the Wallet Number (located at the top of the wallet) will minimize processing errors
  3. Place the deposit, with the "Wallet Copy" of the deposit slip, into the wallet
  4. Do not overfill and limit the amount of coin to prevent breakage of the wallet
  5. The tear off record from the wallet is your receipt; attaching this to the "Customer Copy" of your deposit slip, and then storing both in a secure location will allow you to easily refer to them if in future inquiries into the deposit are necessary.
  6. Delivering your deposit ONLY to your assigned wallet deposit chute enables timely processing and avoids misplacement of your deposit
