Payment Delivery Methods
Plastiq uses several delivery methods (i.e. payment disbursement methods) to complete customer payments. The following chart details their delivery timelines, required payment details, and any restrictions that impact their use. Delivery timelines are based on when the funding transactions are settled to Plastiq.
Please note that once a payment is delivered to a recipient, the recipient's bank will need to process the credit and post that payment to their statement. The length of this crediting period can vary among institutions and depends on their processing speeds. For international wire payments, funds will often need to process through intervening banks so this crediting period can last 2-5 business days
