If you reside outside of Canada or the United States, you will not receive any micro deposits. Your bank account will be ready to go; however, your transactions may fail if you do not enter your banking details correctly.

*Bank Deposit Codes (International members only)
For those of you who are located outside North America, you can deposit by bank transfer as long as we support this service in your country. If we do, it is imperative that you note the Bank Deposit Code in your transaction details, which are presented after creating your deposit transaction in your AlertPay account.
Bank Deposit Codes are 13 digits long and begin with 34. This code is required when you visit your bank and must be included in the “Details” or “Reference” area of your bank transfer. It is very important to note that a missing Bank Deposit Code will cause delays in the completion of your transaction.
