Why is my incoming eCheck pending?

An eCheck is an electronic payment funded by the sender's bank account. It usually takes between 4-7 business days to clear, but sometimes it may take longer (Saturday, Sunday, and Holidays aren’t considered business days).

Don’t ship any items or provide any services until the eCheck clears because if you do and the eCheck doesn't clear, you won't get paid for the item/ services.

The payment may show as “pending” in your PayPal account. To view your payment status and the expected clearing date, visit your Activity and click on the transaction.

Here's how to see the expected clearing date of your incoming eCheck:

1. Go to your Activity.
2. Click the eCheck payment to see the details.
