FAQs

When can I make the payment to newly added payee?

After successfully adding a payee, you may proceed to transfer funds only after the cooling period (the time set by the bank during which fund transfer is not allowed to a newly added payee) or you may set a future date for the transaction to take place.

If I delete or edit a payee, what will happen to the in-flight transactions?

Payee modification or deletion will not have any impact on the transactions which are initiated towards the payee and that are pending further processing.
