How long does it take for a cash withdrawal to reach my bank account?
When you initiate a withdrawal from your SoundMoney® Wallet, the timeframe for the funds to arrive in your bank account depends primarily on your banking institution and how your account was initially connected.
Standard Timeframes
- Linked via Plaid: If your bank account was connected using Plaid, you can generally expect the funds to arrive within 24 to 72 hours.
- Manual Linking: If your bank account was linked manually (without Plaid), the transfer may take up to 5 business days to complete.
Understanding the Process
- "Pending" Status: After you request a withdrawal, your transaction will show as "Pending." This indicates that the funds are currently in transit through the ACH (Automated Clearing House) network.
- "Posted" Status: Once the transfer is successfully completed and accepted by your bank, the status will update to "Posted".
- Processing Fee: Please remember that a flat $5.00 administrative fee is applied to each cash withdrawal.
Important Considerations
- Business Days Only: Banking transfers are processed on business days (Monday–Friday). Requests made on weekends or federal holidays will begin processing on the following business day.
- Bank Cutoff Times: Your specific bank may have daily cutoff times that can add an additional 24 hours to the total processing time.
Pro Tip: If your withdrawal still shows as "Pending" after 5 business days, we recommend contacting your bank first to see if they are holding the incoming ACH transfer before reaching out to our support team.
