Adding money to a LemFi wallet is generally instantaneous or takes only a few minutes. A few methods of deposit typically reflect within 1-2 business days.
What this means
Processing time depends on your LemFi wallet:
CAD wallet: Funds deposited via Interac transfer, Google Play, and Apple Pay are instant.
GBP Wallet: Funds deposited via bank transfer and personal bank debit cards are usually available shortly after. Other options like Google Play and Apple Pay are also instant, but adding money via ‘regular bank transfer’ can take up to 24 hours to reflect in a wallet.
Regular bank transfer is a virtual funding option available for NGN, GBP wallets, and global accounts: in-app “add money” > “choose wallet to add money to”.
KES wallet: Funds deposited via mobile money are instant.
NGN Wallet: Funds deposited via bank transfers are instant.
USD wallet: Deposits to the USD wallet usually reflect instantly for remittance customers and within 1-2 business days for the global account customers.
EUR Wallet: At this time, European LemFi account owners do not have wallet options
