Stop losing money on fees and delayed payouts. Wallid Pay-by-Bank powers instant, secure deposit payments with almost zero chargebacks.

Pay-by-Bank, powered by open banking, fixes deposits with real-time, verified bank transfers. No intermediaries. No risk of reversals. Just fast, secure deposits that boost your cash flow.

Why Pay-by-Bank Beats Deposit Payments

Lower Costs on Deposits

Deposits are often small, but card processors still take 2−4% plus fees. That eats into your margins. Pay-by-Bank charges a flat 1% + 25p.
Almost Zero Chargebacks on Deposits

Deposits are meant to be commitments. With cards, customers can dispute or reverse them. Pay-by-Bank deposits are non-reversible, verified, and final.
Instant Access to Funds

Don’t wait days to confirm a booking or release inventory. With Pay-by-Bank, deposit funds settle instantly into your account.
Seamless for Customers

Manual bank transfers require effort; card deposits need 3DS checks. Pay-by-Bank is mobile-first, 1-tap approved in their bank app, making deposits smooth and trusted.
