Intuit TurboTax® Canada partners with Neo Financial to launch first of its kind offer bringing tax filers fast access to money

Canadians can now access up to 80% of their refund amount, up to $1,000 , at no cost in minutes ¹

INTUit Inc (NASDAQ: INTU), the global financial technology platform that makes TurboTax Credit Karma QuickBooks and Mailchimp announced today the launch of TurboTax Cash—powered by Neo Financial. More than half of Canadians (58%) and three-quarters of Canadian Gen Zers (72%) reported that this year's tax refund is more important than ever before due to the rising costs of living, according to a recent survey. To help Canadians get their hands on funds faster, INTUit TurboTax, in partnership with Neo Financial, is introducing TurboTax Cash—powered by Neo Financial.

This unique offer provides eligible online tax filers, for the first time, the opportunity to get fast access of up to 80% of their refund amount, to a maximum of $1,000 in just minutes, at no cost ¹ . TurboTax is also helping young filers keep more of their hard earned money in their pocket by offering Canadians aged 25 and under the opportunity to file their taxes for free with any TurboTax solution until March 31, 2023 ² .

"For many people the tax refund is the biggest paycheck they will receive in a year. And with nearly half of Canadians looking to get their tax refund faster this year, this money is even more important," said Matt Lisowski , General Manager, Canada & VP Product Management at Intuit. "TurboTax is focused on helping people get access to their refund fast. Only with TurboTax Cash—powered by Neo Financial, Canadians can now get access to a significant portion of that money in just minutes, providing much needed cash in their pockets."

As the first and only offer of its kind available to Canadians filing online, TurboTax Cash provides filers with the opportunity to get up to 80% of their refund amount (to a maximum of $1,000 ) in minutes ¹ . Filers open a Neo Money ^TM account with a Neo Money ^TM card to get a no-cost loan deposited into their account with no impact to their credit score ³ . If the refund is deposited by the CRA into the TurboTax filer's chosen account before the end of the loan term, the filer can easily repay their loan using the refund ⁴ .

"At Neo, we're always in pursuit of building a better financial future for all Canadians - and our partnership with Intuit enables us to further our mission. Together, we're able to create innovative products that the industry has never been able to do before," said Andrew Chau , Co-founder and CEO, Neo Financial . "Customers have always been at the center of our business. At a time where Canadians need support from their financial institutions the most, we've created a seamless solution to help consumers get access to funds faster."

Regardless of whether filers want to do their taxes themselves with TurboTax Online or get the help from a Tax Expert with TurboTax Assist & Review, customers can take advantage of TurboTax Cash—powered by Neo Financial, to get their money fast.

To be eligible to take advantage of the new TurboTax Cash—powered by Neo Financial offer, you must be the age of majority in the eligible province, use TurboTax Online or Assist & Review to prepare your tax return, and file your return with NETFILE.

Survey Methodology

These Maru Public Opinion surveys conducted on behalf of TurboTax were undertaken by the sample and data collection experts at Maru/Blue. 1,521 randomly selected Canadian adults who are Maru Voice Canada online panelists were surveyed from February 3rd to February 4th 2023 . A second survey was conducted among 1,524 randomly Maru Voice Canada online panelists from February 17th to February 18th 2023 . The results of these studies have been weighted by education, age, gender and region (and in Quebec , language) to match the population, according to Census data. This is to ensure the sample is representative of the entire adult population of Canada. For comparison purposes, a probability sample of this size has an estimated margin of error (which measures sampling variability) of +/- 2.5%, 19 times out of 20. Discrepancies in or between totals when compared to the data tables are due to rounding.
