}Initiate Interac money request
Send an Interac money request to a payer’s email to collect CAD into your business wallet. Blaaiz creates a pending collection and sends the request to the payer; when they approve it from their bank app, the funds settle into your CAD wallet and a collection webhook is emitted. Required scope: collection:interac:create.
Your business must have an active CAD wallet and Interac enabled for CAD.
