Instant Settlement

Get paid the moment a transaction is completed — no clearing periods, no waiting. Learn how to enable Instant Settlement for your account.

Instant Settlement

Instant Settlement is an add-on feature that lets you access your funds immediately - 24/7 - as soon as a payment is marked as paid, bypassing the standard clearing and payout schedule entirely.

This is ideal for businesses that need real-time liquidity, operate outside banking hours, or handle high daily transaction volumes.

How it works

When Instant Settlement is enabled, successful payments are transferred directly to your PayMongo Wallet the moment they are processed — no waiting for clearing windows, payout generation, or banking day cutoffs.

Supported payment methods:

Instant Settlement is currently available for the following payment methods:

Payment method
QR Ph
E-wallets (GCash, GrabPay, Maya)

Fees

An additional fee applies per transaction settled instantly. This fee is charged on top of your existing PayMongo processing fee and is deducted before the funds land in your Wallet. You may refer to our public pricing for more details (https://www.paymongo.com/pricing).
