How to redeem
Paragraph spacer
You can redeem some or all of your CSBs directly through secure online access at www.mybonds.gc.ca. If you do not have internet access, you can use our toll-free phone service at 1 877 899-3599, Monday to Friday, 8 am to 8 pm (ET), and either use the automated service option or speak to a Customer Service Representative. Requested funds will be deposited directly to your bank account within three business days, while any remaining balance will continue to earn interest.

If redemption is requested in the first three months after the issue date, no interest is paid, and no partial redemptions are allowed. Also, an employee's purchase amount will be held for 15 days from the date the Bank of Canada receives that purchase amount. You must arrange with the Bank of Canada to have the redemption payment deposited directly into your personal bank account.

If bonds are owned by more than one person, or the owner is not the employee, arrangements for direct deposit of payments can be made by contacting Customer Service toll-free at 1 877 899-3599, Monday to Friday, 8 am to 8 pm (ET).
