How long do weekend and holiday transactions take?

Category: Errors & Delays · Last updated: 10.03.2026

Cryptocurrency networks operate 24/7, so crypto-to-crypto exchanges work the same speed anytime. However, bank transfers and some fiat payment methods may be slower on weekends and holidays, with potential delays of 24-48 hours for processing.

What to Expect

  • Crypto-to-crypto — No difference. Blockchain networks operate 24/7/365.
  • Bank transfers — May be delayed 24-48 hours on weekends/holidays. Banks don't process transfers outside business hours.
  • M-Pesa — Usually unaffected. Processes 24/7.
  • GCash/Maya — Usually unaffected. May have brief maintenance windows.
