How to read the table.
- Payment rail
- The network the payment travels on, such as SEPA, PIX, Fedwire or a local bank transfer.
- Cut-off time
- Send before this time, on a processing day, for same-day settlement. After it, the payment goes on the next processing day. “None” means the rail runs without a cut-off.
- Processing days
- The days the rail runs. “Every day” includes weekends.
- Settlement time
- Real-time settles within seconds or minutes. T+0 settles the same day.
- Clearance
- When Olympus releases the payment after its compliance checks. T+0 is released the same day. T+1 is released the next business day, after enhanced screening.
Higher-risk markets: T+1 clearance.
Some markets are on the Olympus higher-risk list. Payments to them go through enhanced screening and are cleared at T+1.
Among the live corridors, these are higher-risk markets: China, Colombia, Mexico, Nigeria, Philippines, United Arab Emirates. The rail may settle in real time or the same day, but Olympus releases the payment at T+1, after screening. Payments through the 190+ country wire and the European Union corridor are cleared at T+1 where the recipient is in a higher-risk market, for example Bulgaria or Croatia.
A high-risk transaction fee can also apply. See the higher-risk client fees and the eligibility policy.

Southern Africa.
Corridors across the Southern African Development Community open in stages.
Botswana is live. Seven further corridors launch on 14 February 2027 with Olympus GoRemitt: South Africa, Zimbabwe, Zambia, Namibia, Mozambique, Lesotho and Eswatini. The other SADC countries follow as they are approved: Angola, Comoros, DR Congo, Madagascar, Malawi, Mauritius, Seychelles and Tanzania. Rails, cut-off times and settlement are confirmed as each corridor opens.
How sending works.
Choose the country and currency
Pick where the money is going, and the recipient’s account details.
See the rate and fee
The rate and the fee are shown before you confirm. The sender pays the fee, and the recipient gets the exact amount.
Send
Olympus checks the payment and releases it at T+0 or, for higher-risk markets, T+1.
Track it
Follow the payment until it settles.
Corridor questions
What does T+0 mean?
T+0 means same day. Olympus releases the payment on the day you send it, and it settles on the rail the same day. Real-time rails settle within seconds or minutes.
Why is T+1 used for some countries?
Markets on the Olympus higher-risk list go through enhanced screening. Olympus releases those payments the next business day, at T+1.
What is the cut-off time?
The time by which you must send a payment for it to be processed on the same day. Times are in GMT. Instant rails have no cut-off.
Can I send to any country?
Not to every country. Olympus does not process transactions with some countries at all. The corridors above show where you can send now and where corridors are planned.
