- 4.5% interest if you deposit your paycheque into it. 3% otherwise I think? It’s quite high
- you can send e-transfers from a Cash account, or you send money using WS Cash to other Cash users. Both workflows are easy
The Cash card also has 0.5% cash back on purchases IIRC and is essentially a prepaid credit card / debit card. I love WS Cash, the only reason I don’t use it more often is that I have an Amex.
Alberta just kicked Coal years ahead of schedule. Yes, they’re also keeping the rest of the country using and producing oil, but clearly that province is working hard to reduce emissions.
