<div id="expensify-classic" markdown="1">

To get paid after submitting a report for reimbursement, you must first connect a personal U.S. bank account or a personal Australian bank account. Then once your employer approves your report or invoice, the reimbursement will be paid directly to your bank account.
Funds for U.S. and global payments are generally deposited within a maximum of four to five business days: 2 days for the funds to be debited from the business bank account, and 2-3 business days for the ACH or wire to deposit into the employee account.
To receive a reimbursement after submitting an expense report, you must first [connect a personal bank account](https://help.expensify.com/articles/expensify-classic/bank-accounts-and-payments/bank-accounts/Connect-Personal-Bank-Account) to Expensify. Once your employer approves your report or invoice, the reimbursement is deposited directly into your bank account.

However, banks only process ACH transactions before the daily cutoff (generally 3 p.m. PST) and only on business weekdays that are not bank holidays. This may affect when the payment is disbursed. If the payment qualifies for Rapid Reimbursement, you may receive the payment sooner.
**Processing Times:**
- U.S. and global payments generally take **4-5 business days**:
- **2 days** for the business account to process the debit
- **2-3 business days** for ACH or wire transfer to your account
- Payments initiated **after 3 p.m. PST** or on **weekends/bank holidays** may be delayed.
- If your payment qualifies for **Rapid Reimbursement**, you may receive it sooner.

{% include info.html %}
Companies also have the option to submit payments outside of Expensify via check, cash, or a third-party payment processor. Check with your Workspace Admin to know how you will be reimbursed.
{% include end-info.html %}

# Rapid Reimbursement (U.S. only)
Your company or client also has the option to pay you via **check, a third-party payment processor, or outside of Expensify**. Check with your **Workspace Admin** or payor to confirm the payment method.

With Expensify’s ACH reimbursement, payments may be eligible for reimbursement by the next business day with Rapid Reimbursement if they meet the following qualifications:
- **Deposit-only accounts**: Payment must not exceed $100
- **Verified business bank accounts**: The account does not disburse more than $10,000 within a 24-hour time period.

# Rapid Reimbursement (U.S. Only)

Expensify’s **Rapid Reimbursement** allows eligible ACH payments to process **within one business day** if they meet the following conditions:

- **Deposit-only accounts:** Payment must not exceed **$100**.
- **Verified business bank accounts:** Total disbursements must not exceed **$10,000** within 24 hours.

If payments exceed these limits, they follow the standard **4-5 business day ACH timeframe**.

# Global Reimbursements via Wise

For employees outside the U.S., Expensify partners with **Wise (formerly TransferWise)** to enable **faster global reimbursements**.

If the payment amount exceeds the limit, funds will be deposited within the typical ACH time frame of four to five business days.
## How It Works
1. Sign up for a **Wise account** to receive a USD checking account number and ACH routing number.
2. Add these details as a **deposit-only bank account** in Expensify.
3. When your reimbursement is approved, it is deposited into your Wise account.
4. Convert funds into **40+ currencies** or withdraw them to your local bank. **UK and EU users can also request a Wise debit card**.

{% include faq-begin.md %}
## Setting Up Wise for Expensify
1. Confirm with your employer if **USD expenses** can be submitted.
2. Open a **Wise Borderless Account** and complete **verification** (may take up to **3 days**).
3. Add your **Wise USD account and ACH routing number** to Expensify.

**Is there a way I can track my payment?**
**Important:** Use the **ACH routing number**, *not* the wire transfer routing number.

Expensify will **automatically convert non-USD expenses** to USD before submission.

# Third-Party Payment Options

Expensify integrates with **PayPal** and **Venmo** to provide alternative reimbursement options.

## Benefits of Third-Party Payments
