Instant Settlement

Instant Settlement

What is an instant settlement?

Cashfree’s Instant Settlements enable businesses to receive funds almost instantly, with cycles starting from 15 minutes, reducing the standard T+1 or T+2 settlement periods. Eligibility requires meeting specific criteria. For more information, fill out the Support Form.

Instant Settlement is an advanced payment gateway feature offered by Cashfree that lets you access your funds within 15 minutes of payment capture from the customer. This will help you to respond faster to new business opportunities, and get complete control over your working capital.

How Instant Settlements will help you grow your businesses?

  • Manage your working capital better:With instant access to your funds, you can plan your business expenditure better and drive your business towards growth. This can also help avoid the dependency on costly short-term loans to meet business needs.
  • Make fool-proof projections:You can now plan your short-term business goals better without the need to assume the revenue you are yet to receive. You can take calculated risks based on your liquidity and not shoot in the dark.

  • Handle refunds and chargebacks better:The uncertainty around the usual settlement cycles often affect transactions where the customer has requested for a refund or a chargeback immediately. With instant settlements, you get instant access to those funds and in case of refunds or chargebacks, you can happily reverse the payments instantly, without the need to incur any loss for those transactions.

Are there any processing fees for Instant Settlements?

Yes, a nominal fee is applied for processing Instant Settlements.

Is there any limit on Instant Settlements?

Yes, We have introduced limits on Instant Settlements to streamline the settlement process and meet your daily needs. With limits, you can:

  • Settle a specified amount up to the assigned limit until the next working day.

  • Benefit from faster and higher success rates throughout the working day.
