How fast and when your payment status will be updated by Flywire (on the tracking link, via email and/or SMS) depends on the payment method. However, you can count on being updated immediately once Flywire receives your payment.
In general, when paying by card, payment statuses are updated immediately after a successful payment attempt. Bank transfers typically take 2 to 3 business days to reach Flywire from the point that your bank releases the funds, this is when you will receive your first payment status update.
Your institution can see the same status updates regarding your payment on their own Flywire Dashboard. When your payment is delivered to your institution, you can access your payment receipt via the delivery confirmation email.
Please note that payments are not processed during the weekend (Saturdays & Sundays) and during bank holidays. For more details, please see the FAQs below.
