SEPA Bank Transfers (EUR)

SEPA allows you to deposit and withdraw EUR using European bank accounts.

Updated this week

Who can use SEPA

• Users with EUR bank accounts within the SEPA zone
• Transfers must be sent in EUR

SEPA is only available for banks located in supported European countries.


Enable SEPA Bank Transfers

When using this feature for the first time, you will be prompted to accept terms and conditions and an account will be created for you with our third party provider.

You may additionally be asked for additional information (such as tax identification number) in order for your account to be approved.

Once your account is approved and set up you should see deposit details when adding funds, and a recipient list when sending funds.


Processing times

Processing times depend on your bank’s cut off times.

  • SEPA payments may settle in under 15 minutes.

Transfers over €100,000 may take 1 to 2 business days and additional information about the purpose of the transaction may be requested.
