Important notes:
Not all banks are signed up for the Faster Payment Scheme. Here is the list of directly connected participants. Alternatively, it’s always better to check with the bank or provider you want to send money to before the transfer.
You can check if the Sort Code you want to send a payment to accepts Faster Payments, by using the sort code checker.
Some banks might also not recognize Cryptopay’s Sort code, as it starts with '0'. This can happen when a bank does not update its Extended Industry Sort Code Directory (EISCD) correctly. It also may happen if they use an old system that does not recognize the 0 at the beginning of the Sort Code. Please enquire with your bank if such an issue exists.
Please note that you can’t deposit funds from any third-party or business bank accounts.
