Good morning. My name is Diane Marie and Ice been a Paypal user for a few weeks and I have a question. I have received payments from a few customers and the payment has been send to my pending balance and I understand that after 21 days the money will be released. So, after 21 days, will it automatically bank in the money or should I have to accept it manually? If manually, how do I do that?
If the PayPal transaction shows the payment as pending, then it means it hasn't cleared the buyer's bank account and could fail.
If the payment is on hold, the it follows the various PayPal policies for holds and would start at 21 days for a new member; yo would't be able to use the money for 21 days.
So, it seems to be a hold rather than a pending payment. I would be released for your use in about 21 days unless there is a buyer dispute filed within that time period.
