The Swift network is the system that allows you to send and receive international payments directly to and from your Xapo Bank account, connecting you to financial institutions globally.

It provides a secure and standardised messaging network that banks use to ensure cross-border transfers are processed reliably.  
  

**What are the limits to transact via Swift, both per transaction and per day? Deposits and withdrawals.**  
There aren’t deposit limits for Swift transactions to Xapo Bank. Swift withdrawals can be limited up to $1M per day.   
  

**How to deposit USD to Xapo Bank via Swift**  
You can deposit USD via Swift network by clicking on “Deposit” button and selecting “US Dollar” option. Then click on “Swift”. 

**How to withdraw USD via Swift?**  
You can withdraw USD via Swift network by clicking on "Account and Cards" at the home screen, tap on “Send” button , select “Bank transfer” and “US dollar” and then click on “Send via Swift”  
  

**Can I deposit USD via Swift to Xapo Bank from another account that is not under my name?**  
Yes, we can accept such deposits   
  

**How long does it take to process a Swift withdrawal?**  
Processing Swift transactions depends on various factors such as destination bank, initiation time, transaction amount and others. 

If you initiate a Swift withdrawal before 4:30 pm UK time, except weekends and public holidays, the transaction will be sent to the Swift network on the same day. If you initiate a Swift transaction after 4:30 pm UK time, the transaction will be processed on the next business day. Usually, it takes around 3 business days a withdrawal to be credited to the recipient’s account. 

Please note that for your protection, some transactions may require additional security reviews on our end, which can also extend the processing time.  
  

**How long does it take for my Swift account to be approved?**Our Swift payment provider has to approve your Swift account before you can initiate Swift deposits or withdrawals. It usually takes up to 2 business days.   

**What are the fees for depositing and withdrawing USD via Swift?**  
Depositing USD via Swift network to Xapo Bank costs 0.3% of the deposit. This fee doesn’t represent a profit for Xapo Bank.   
Withdrawing USD via Swift network costs 0.2% plus the USD equivalent of GBP 25.

**Can I deposit other currencies via Swift network to Xapo Bank?**Yes. You can deposit supported currencies, which will be automatically converted to US Dollars (USD) upon receipt. Please note that a 0.5% SWIFT fee applies to non USD deposits.

**When should I choose Swift instead of ACH/Fedwire?**
