The hard part is done: your client has submitted their payment. Congrats! The funds are on their way to you, and how long that payment takes to show up in your account can vary based on a few factors. 

First of all, remember that once your client has made a payment, you can review the estimated deposit date of the payment via the Payments tab of your Bookkeeping tool; in the Payments tab of the individual project; or in client progress view of the sent invoice.

In general, credit card payments usually take 2-3 business days to reach your account, and bank transfers usually take 7-8 business days (since the funds need to clear your client's bank account first). Business days are Monday-Friday, excluding bank holidays. Remember, though, that all times are approximate and may be subject to delay based on bank processes.

PLEASE NOTE: If a client makes a payment via ACH bank transfer, that payment will need to fully process (with the payment status moving from pending to paid in HoneyBook) before a subsequent payment can be made.
