When my customers pay, it usually takes only a matter of hours before it shows up in my PayPal wallet. I transfer it out to my bank account, and that usually takes one business day. Weekends can add a couple of days. The time of day matters too because banks have their own routines and schedules. If you miss their cutoff time, it might take another business day. I have learned to be patient on the day a customer is supposed to pay and check later in the day. If I am waiting for a customer to pay before I take the next step, I will get them busy preparing their input for other parts of the process so that I can respond quickly once I see on PayPal that they have paid. I like to get my students started right away to give them the optimal opportunity to get their best score on standardized tests.
