On weekends, customers still have a need to transfer money on Saturdays and Sundays. If the transaction is made on the weekend, customers can only do it through ATMs or online banking.

However, not everyone has registered for online banking. Therefore, when there is a need to transact on Saturdays, Sundays, or even in the evening, ATMs are the best choice.

Can I transfer money at the ATM on weekends?

Currently, the ATM network is widely spread across the country. Therefore, customers will not find it difficult to find and do transactions. Moreover, ATMs operate 24/7 regardless of weekends or evenings.

Therefore, when there is a need to transfer money on Saturdays, Sundays, or evenings, users can go to ATMs to do transactions.

How long does it take to receive money when transferring via ATMs on weekends?

If you transfer to another bank on weekends, the receiving time will be longer than usual. Because the ATM system needs to wait for approval from the bank’s switching system. However, the switching process is only carried out during office hours.

Therefore, the transferred money cannot reach the recipient immediately but has to wait until office hours or the next day. If you need to transfer money urgently, transferring to another bank via ATMs on Saturdays, Sundays will not achieve the expected result.

In the case of an urgent need to transfer money on weekends at an ATM, customers can ask friends or relatives who have the same bank account as the recipient to perform the transaction.

ATM transfer fee on weekends

The transfer fee at ATMs on Saturdays, Sundays remains unchanged. Banks still maintain the same fee levels as when transacting on regular days. Each bank has different regulations regarding fees for transfers within the same bank and interbank transfers.

If transferring within the same bank, most customers are exempt from fees or have very low fees.

If transferring to another bank on weekends, the fee is determined by the regulations of each individual ATM.
