​​A few notes about accepting online payments through Wave: 

Approval is subject to eligibility criteria, including identity verification and credit review. Payments are a pay-per-use feature; no monthly fees here! Your deposit times may vary based on your financial institution. All payments are subject to a risk review and periodic credit risk assessments are done on business owners because we need to cover our butts (and yours). In some cases, we may hold funds and request more information if we need it for the protection of your business and Wave's. 

Instant Payout is an additional service offered by Wave subject to user and payment eligibility criteria. A 1% fee is applied to the amount you withdraw from your available balance (minimum fee of $1), in addition to regular processing fees.. The minimum withdrawal amount is $25. Deposits are sent to the debit card linked to your account in up to 30 minutes. Deposit times may vary due to processing cutoff times or third party delays.

Speed up cash flow with online payments.
