The wire payment has not arrived. How long does it take for the funds to arrive?
Funds are subject to the cut-offs and timelines of the sending bank used by your customer and the clearing system for the given currency.
Once the funds arrive at your Paynode Account, they are credited to your account in the timeline shown below, provided they are referenced correctly by your customer.
Local Currency | Money Arrives |
EUR (SEPA) |
SEPA payments typically arrive on the same or the next day, depending on the bank used to send the payment. Once received the funds are immediately applied to your balance. |
USD (ACH or Fedwire) |
If we receive the funds before 5 pm EST, the payment lands on the same day. After this time, payments arrive the following day. This is true for all US banking days. |
CAD (EFT) |
Payments usually arrive on the next working day. |
GBP (Faster payments) |
Funds issued by approved senders arrive in the Paynode account in seconds, 24/7. |
NOTE: SWIFT wires arrive within an hour. |
If the payment has not arrived within the expected timeframe, please consider the following:
Are there external factors, such as a public holiday, that may have delayed the payment?
- Check that your (beneficiary) bank details match the details in the payment confirmation.
- Check that the correct IBAN/BIC or ABA/Account/Routing numbers were used for the transfer sent.
- Check that your client and your client’s bank are located within the supported countries and regions for sending payments.
Any funds received from a payor or bank outside of the supported locations will be rejected and returned. Additionally, payments sent from crypto-currency platforms may be delayed or declined. |
Still, need help?
We process wire payments the same day they are received, or the next day if they arrive after the cut-off time for processing.
- If the funds do not arrive by the expected date, contact the sender to inform them that the funds were not received and to ask about the settlement date of the wire transfer to get an idea of when to expect your wire payment.
The support we can provide for locating payments depends on the payment route - SWIFT (priority) or Regular (local) - and the provided tracking information.
All payments are managed and tracked by the sending bank. Therefore, have your client provide you with one of the following information to help locate the wire payment.
Below is a list of the tracking information or proof of payment (POP) that we require.
The trace information can tell us when the money left the sending bank, how it was sent, and how much it was. |
