How it Works

5 steps. That's it.

Emoot app screen
  1. Step 1: Choose the feeling (Emooticons)

    Choose the Emooticon that matches the feeling you want to share. Pick from Joy & Celebration, Love & Caring, Gratitude & Appreciation, Positivity & Encouragement, Empathy & Support.

    Whatever fits the moment.

  1. Step 2: Write your message

    Say the thing you've been meaning to say. For wins, milestones, "I'm proud of you" energy, hard days, big moves, and "I got you" moments. Lots of space (1000 char) and you can add a GIF at the bottom.

  2. Step 3: Make it personal

    Upload a photo, video, or voice note.
    Turn it into something they can feel, not just read.

  2. Step 5: Confirm and send funds

    Pay via Interac Request Money or Visa Direct debit. Your Giftee will receive an email, open their Emoot, and then receive your gift through Interac e-Transfer®, deposited into their account.
    You’re notified when they open it.
