What is the lead time? How far in advance should I set up payments?
To help you schedule enough lead time for your payment to reach your payee, we show you the minimum required lead time for that payee on the “Make a Single Payment”, “Make a Recurring Payment”, and “Payee List” screens. Payments should be scheduled at least two or five Business Days before you want the payment to be received, depending on the payment method. A Business Day is every calendar day except for Saturdays, Sundays and bank holidays.
