What Are International Payments?  

When a sender instructs an international money transfer provider to send money electronically from one person to another, this is referred to as an “international money transfer.” The term applies whether or not the sender has an account with the international money transfer company and whether or not the transaction is also an electronic fund transfer.

The most common forms of upfront payment are wire transfers, credit cards, and cash. Online Check Writer offers customers wire transfer services and pays-by-credit options.

SWIFT

  • SWIFT is a global financial telecommunications company founded in Brussels in the early 1970s.
  • SWIFT’s mission is to assist banks in securely and quickly communicating with one another about processing bank transfer payments.

 How SWIFT Work?

The SWIFT communication network now connects over 10,000 financial institutions in over 200 countries. As a result, it has become the world’s largest payment network.

 SWIFT refers to as “communication” because it is merely a tool for banks to communicate with one another. SWIFT is in charge of sending payment instructions between banks.

What Is BIC (Bank Identifier Code)?

BIC stands for “Bank Identifier Code.” This code is used to identify banks when sending money abroad. A bank can join the SWIFT network by receiving a code from the organization known as SWIFT.

SWIFT code, BIC/SWIFT code, and SWIFT identifier all refer to the same thing: international payment codes.

    How Long Do International Payments Take?  

    Bank transfers are typically processed the same business day if requested before the bank’s cutoff time. If there is a time difference, it may be processed the following business day. Unfortunately, just because your bank processes an international transfer on a business day does not guarantee that the funds will arrive in your recipient’s bank account the same day. You have no control over what happens after you send the payment instruction. We’d like to see real-time SWIFT transfers, but we’re not there yet.

    An international transfer typically takes 1 to 5 business days to reach its destination. However, many factors can cause the transfer to be delayed, including incorrect bank details, holidays, weekends, time zones, the destination country, regulatory checks, the number of intermediary banks, and so on.
