• Log in to your internet banking dashboard or GTWorld mobile app.
• Navigate to Account Transfer >> Own Account >> Dom account you want to transfer from >> Dollar card account >> Amount you want to transfer >> Submit.
• Your domiciliary account will be debited, and your dollar card account will be credited immediately. The entire transfer process takes less than 20 seconds.
