Payments and transfers go through various stages while being processed. Updates are noted on your Pay Portal to keep you apprised of your funds and when you can expect them.

The Receipt ID is a record of the transaction which can be referenced when contacting customer support.

1. Log in to your Pay Portal.
2. Click History
3. Click on the transaction description to view the details.

Note: For security reasons, only the last four digits of your account information will be displayed.

As part of our compliance program, we may require that you provide some additional information in order for you to continue to receive funds. For security reasons, we will not ask you to provide or verify personal information via email. Please visit your Pay Portal to update your information and follow steps to review your personal information.

Our goal is to send your funds to you as quickly as possible. However, once the transfer has cleared our systems, processing times can vary according to the receiving bank and any intermediary financial institutions involved in the transaction. Depending on your country and region, some transfers may take longer than others to be received.

If you have initiated multiple transfers from your Pay Portal, you will receive separate cash out notifications for each transfer.

After a payment has been processed, the destination account cannot be changed. However, you can update the destination account for future payments by following these steps:

1. Log in to the Pay Portal
2. Click Transfer
3. On the Transfer Center, click Action > Update
4. Update the information
5. Click Confirm.

When a payment is initiated, the amount transferred from your Pay Portal will be deducted, along with a transfer fee (if applicable). In the case of wire transfers, the recipient bank may impose processing fees which will be deducted from your balance.
