Transfer times on Pouchers depend on the type of transaction, the payment method, and the receiving institution or blockchain network.

Transfer Times on Pouchers

  • Transfers to another Pouchers user: Usually instant.

  • Transfers to Nigerian bank accounts: Usually 45–60 seconds.

  • Bill payments: Typically instant, but may take up to 2 minutes.

  • Virtual card withdrawals: Instant.

Foreign Account Transfer Times

The time it takes for money to reflect in your Pouchers Foreign Account depends on the transfer method and the receiving bank.

  • ACH (USD): Usually 1–3 business days.

  • FedNow (USD): Usually instant.

  • Faster Payments (GBP): Approximately 5 minutes; larger transfers may take up to 30 minutes.

  • BACS (GBP): Usually 3 business days.

  • SEPA Instant (EUR): Usually within 5 minutes, available 24/7.

  • SEPA Credit (EUR): Usually within 5 minutes, available 24/7, based on the current stated processing timeframe. Transfers may take longer if additional processing is required.

Stablecoin Transfer Times

Stablecoin transfers depend on the blockchain network used and its transaction confirmation requirements.
