Recognize that online banking account transfers are “real time”, meaning they are completed at that moment. Transfers after 10:00 p.m. (Central Time) Monday through Friday, after 7:00 p.m. on Saturdays or at any time on Sundays or Holidays will be processed the following business day or Saturday, whichever comes first. If you make a transfer during this time, you will receive a message stating that your transfer has been successfully completed. However, the transaction will not be able to be viewed in history until the following business day or Saturday.
