Tracking Your Payment/Transfers

What do the payment status descriptions refer to?

Payments and transfers go through various stages while being processed. Updates are noted on your Pay Portal to keep you apprised of your funds and when you can expect them.

Note: For security reasons, only the last four digits of your account information will be displayed.

Why does my account need review?
As part of our compliance program, we may require that you provide some additional information in order for you to continue to receive funds. For security reasons, we will not ask you to provide or verify personal information via email. Please visit your Pay Portal to update your information and follow steps to review your personal information.
It is past the estimated deposit date. Why haven't I received my funds?

Our goal is to send your funds to you as quickly as possible. However, once the transfer has cleared our systems, processing times can vary according to the receiving bank and any intermediary financial institutions involved in the transaction. Depending on your country and region, some transfers may take longer than others to be received.

Why am I getting multiple emails?
If you have initiated multiple transfers from your Pay Portal, you will receive separate cash out notifications for each transfer.
How do I update the destination bank account for my payment?

After a payment has been processed, the destination account cannot be changed. However, you can update the destination account for future payments by following these steps:

  1. Log in to the Pay Portal
  2. Click Transfer
  3. On the Transfer Center, click Action > Update
  4. Update the information
  5. Click Confirm.
My payment amount is different than I anticipated. Why?
When a payment is initiated, the amount transferred from your Pay Portal will be deducted, along with a transfer fee (if applicable). In the case of wire transfers, the recipient bank may impose processing fees which will be deducted from your balance.

Security and Privacy

How do I spot a phishing email/website, or fake, fraudulent communications pretending to be Hyperwallet?

A Hyperwallet communication will never:

  • Ask payees to click on links that take them to a fake website- A link could look perfectly secure. If you’re on a computer, you can hover the mouse over the link to see the true destination. If unsure, you should not click that link.
  • Contain unknown attachments- You should only open an attachment when you're sure it’s legitimate and secure. Some attachments contain viruses that install themselves when opened.
  • Convey a false sense of urgency- Phishing emails are often alarmists, warning you to update the account immediately. They're hoping victims fall for their sense of urgency and ignore warning signs that the email is fake. 
  • Have Poor Spelling or Grammar- The email uses strange salutations, odd wording, poor grammar or spelling errors.
