How long will it take?
It takes between 0-3 days for your money to reach Xe, depending on how you pay for your transfer. Once we receive your funds we make payment to your recipient.
Most transfers will arrive on the same day, but occasionally some recipient banks can take between 1-4 days to deposit the money in your recipient's account.
We will send you a notification at each stage of your transfer so you know where your funds are.
