How long does it take payments to clear?

Credit and debit cards are authorized at the time of the transaction and will debit into your bank account on the deposit timeline. The client's bank has two banking days to return a notice of insufficient funds or invalid account. Depending on when we receive this response from the bank, it's possible funds may be initially deposited and then debited due to a return. Note that a two banking day response can be three banking days from when the transaction was actually run due to the time it takes to send the transaction to the client's bank.
