Painfully Slow Payment Transfers to Children’s Accounts
Payment transfers are almost immediate from my checking account but are painfully slow to transfer to children’s accounts. Inexcusable in this day and age of instant payment transfer. Will probably go with Venmo after my son’s 13th birthday which is the only prerequisite for that payment method. Tired of getting alerts for a problem with my payment method when Acorns doesn’t seem to have an issue withdrawing funds, like I said almost immediately….

Hi Barry,
Transfers made through a linked bank account can take approximately 2–3 business days to fully process and appear in your Acorns Early account. During this time, the funds may already show as withdrawn from your bank account while the transfer remains in flight to us.
If you would prefer funds to be available immediately, we recommend using a debit or credit card, as these payments are processed into your account instantly.
We were unable to locate your account using the information provided through TrustPilot but we would like to help ensure everything is processing as expected with your account and look into these alerts. Please feel free to contact us at 855-739-2859. Our support team is available Monday–Friday from 9:00 AM–8:00 PM EST and Saturday–Sunday from 9:00 AM–5:00 PM EST.
Alternatively, you can email us at help@acornsearly.com with the subject line “FAO Supervisors,” and we’ll be happy to assist further.
Kind regards,
Dan
Acorns Early Supervisor
