Sending Sri Lankan Rupee (LKR) payments

This guide is to help you with sending LKR payments. It has all the information you need to know, including when you can usually expect it to arrive and what you can do if it doesn’t.

✅ Yes, you can send LKR payments to an individual or a business.

❌ No. As there are no name checks, it's really important that you use the correct account number. If the incorrect account number is used and it belongs to someone else, the payment will still go through.

You can send up to Rs980,000 per transfer and Rs5,000,000 per day.

Most payments arrive within seconds, and nearly all arrive within 6 hours.

In some cases, because of bank holidays or if there are any extra checks on the payment it can take up to 1 working day.

You can see how long we expect your payment to take before you send it in the app, and after you’ve sent it by tapping it in your feed.

We’ll send your payment as a local bank transfer through the Common Electronic Fund Transfer Switch) (CEFTS) or Sri Lanka Interbank Payment System (SLIPS) networks with partner banks in Sri Lanka.

If the recipient’s bank doesn’t accept CEFTS payments, we’ll send through SLIPS instead.

There is no cut off time. Any payment you make will go out on the same day you send it.

✅ Yes, but only if you think it’s fraud. Let us know right away so we can help.

⏰ We can send the recall immediately.
