Q1 2026 Mission Update: Speed

Svea Pärtel

Our journey towards instant payments

We’ve been working behind the scenes to make transfers faster and our delivery estimates more accurate. Now, 75% of transfers arrive in under 20 seconds. We also focused on making those delivery times even more reliable — so what you see is closer to when your money actually arrives.

Q1 Speed Performance

Great news if you're sending PLN! We’ve improved how we connect to local payment systems in Poland, so more of your PLN transfers can arrive instantly.

Boosted accuracy for quicker deliveries

We know you want your money delivered instantly, and while that's always our goal, making sure your payments arrive on time and accurately is just as important. That's why we track the accuracy of our payment's arrival time as ‘Early’, ‘On time’ or ‘Late’. We've been busy making some big improvements to our reliability, and we have great news to share!

Our global SWIFT transfers just got a major boost in reliability. We've introduced automated settlements, a smarter way to manage our funds, and better tracking for every payment. The result? 92% of our SWIFT payments are now delivered accurately and on time.

We've also been working closely with our banking partners in Chile, Kenya, and Pakistan to fix technical glitches and better manage the funds needed for payments. This focused effort has led to strong improvements in the speed and accuracy of payments in KES, CLP, and PKR.

That wraps up our progress for this quarter! We're committed to continuously improving how fast and accurate your payments are as we move forward.
