The easiest way to commit to a regular savings plan is to arrange for pre-authorized transfers from your banking account to your designated savings account. Simply specify the amount and how often you want the transfers to take place — for example, once a week, every two weeks or once a month. You may even want to schedule these to occur just after your paycheque is direct-deposited into your chequing account.

  • Step 1: In your Online Banking, under Quick Payments and Transfers, click on Pay Bills and Transfer Funds.
  • Step 2: On the left hand menu, click on Set Up Save-Matic.
  • Step 3: Enter the Amount you want to save, choose your From and To accounts, When to start, and select how often from the Receive Frequency options, then click on Submit.
  • Step 4. Review your information and click on Confirm
  • Sign in to the RBC Mobile app,
  • Tap ‘More’
  • Tap ‘NOMI Find & Save’ and turn it on.

After you turn on NOMI Find & Save, we will get to know your spending & saving habits in your source chequing account to find opportunities to save for you.
