How long does it take for square to verify a new bank account that you added?

It can take up to four business days to verify your bank account (excluding weekends and holidays). You can check the status of the verification in your Square Dashboard.
Go to the Account & Settings section and click Bank Account. You'll also receive an email from Square when your account is verified.
See our support article for more details. Hope that helps!

@Toya - Some bank accounts can verify instantly, depending on our relationship with your bank. In general, I advise sellers to be prepared for the maximum amount, up to five business days.

I just sent out an invoice to a customer for $100 and change. They should be paying with credit card soon.
I want to change my bank accounts on square before the payment comes in.
I forget if there is any turn around time on the new bank account being synked to Square or if its instant.
If its not instant and the payment comes in via credit card will it mess up the transaction?
If it doesnt great, also if it doesnt with the custmoer but does on my/square's end ok... As long as I get the money coming in I dont care.
Who knows how this would occur in this situation.

How's it going @mkmto -
When adding a bank account, verification can take up to 4 biz days which means all funds will funnel to your old bank account in interim. To stop this from happening, it's best to call Support so they can delete your old bank. This won't mess up your transactions - instead they'll be sitting safely in your Square Balance until the new one is successfully linked.
I've merged you post to this thread to see George's best answer. He included a support article link that talks more about the bank verification process!

@William04 See George's response above. All bank changes can take up to about 5 business days. This applies to both the first time linking of a bank account as well as any changes to the bank account linked.

Is your bank account verified? https://squareup.com/dashboard/business/bank-accounts-overview Initial verification of your account can take up to 5 business days. Once your bank account is verified, you should receive deposits within 1-2 business days. https://squareup.com/help/us/en/article/3896-link-and-edit-your-bank-account

On 2:25PM on May 12, 2018 - we entered new bank account info on our Square account. That was a Saturday ... but I still haven't seen that it has changed and it is now Wednesday at 1:30pm.
Does anyone know how long this should take? Did I possible do something wrong? Or do I need to take an additional step?
Should I contact customer service?
Thank you for your help!

@FCFLfootball I've added your post to this thread where we've shared more information about the bank verification process. It can take 5 business days for your linked bank account to be verified, and unfortunately, this cannot be expedited. I'm sorry.
You can check the estimated date that your account will be verified from your online Square Dashboard, click Account & Settings > Bank Account.
