I'm waiting for a payment – when will it arrive?
How fast an inbound payment reaches your Holvi account depends on the payment method used and when the sender makes the payment.

What is a business day?
Business days are Monday through Friday, excluding holidays. Transactions received on a Saturday, Sunday and public holidays are processed on the next business day.
What is a banking day?
A banking day is any day that the bank is open and accepts banking transactions. Banking days do not always coincide with business days. Find our list of non-banking days here.
Cut-off times for inbound transfers (receiving SEPA payments/bank transfers)
Payment arrival times depend on what day/time the payment was carried out and when the sending bank processes outbound payments.
At the latest, the payment will arrive in your Holvi account within 2 banking days of being processed by the sending bank.
Note
If a payment is made outside of banking hours, the sending bank will process the payment on the following banking day.
My inbound payment hasn’t arrived within 2 banking days
If a payment hasn’t arrived within 2 banking days of being processed by the sending bank, please ask the sender to confirm it was sent as a STEP2 SEPA payment. Holvi is unable to process other payment types.
