Open Banking Payment Limits

Open Banking payment limits vary between banking providers.

Banking Provider Payment Limits

The amounts listed on this page are the limits when initiating an open banking payment from a given provider. For larger payments a provider may permit a customer to make multiple payments within a daily (or weekly) payment limit.

Some providers set lower limits for initial payments to new payees. Some providers allow their customers to increase their open banking payment limit upon request, through their online/mobile banking.

Please note: As supported institutions payment limits may be changed from time to time, we do not warrant the completeness or accuracy of the information published in our list, nor do we warrant that is up to date. If you wish to enquire about our support for a specific bank, please get in touch.
