Withdrawal hold

Certain deposits, such as ACH purchases, debit or credit card purchases or digital wallet purchases, may trigger a temporary (72 hour) withdrawal hold on the account, for security purposes. This can apply to any purchase, not just your first.

If prompted, select a Cash withdrawal options. Next, enter your bank account details.

Fill in your bank account details (all fields are mandatory).
Account Nickname: Can be whatever you like so you can easily remember this bank account. Add a descriptive nickname to this account to make it easier to find and withdraw from next time.
