Square's Standard Transfer Schedule

With Square’s standard transfer schedule, transfers are initiated every weeknight for payments taken Monday - Friday before 17:00 GMT. Transfers for sales made prior to 17:00 GMT will arrive in your linked bank account as soon as the next working day.

After you activate a Square account and link a bank account, funds are automatically sent to your linked account per our standard transfer schedule. Our standard transfer schedule is the quickest way to receive your funds.

With our standard schedule:

  • Payments taken before 17:00 GMT are sent to your bank account as soon as the next working day.

  • Transfers are not sent on Saturdays or Sundays.

  • Transfer cutoff and initiation time will adjust accordingly with Irish Summer Time.

  • Bank holidays may affect transfer timelines.
