Introduction to JP Morgan
JP Morgan is the banking provider we use to facilitate transfers from your bank account to a specific funding account.
How you route your transfers to your Nium funding account will determine how long that transfer will take.
Your remitting bank determines any charges incurred for your transfers.
IMPORTANT:
During onboarding, you will need to provide us with:
• your business registration country
• the countries from where your business is currently operating from and
• the country where your corporate bank account is located and from where funds will be transferred to your Nium account.Our teams will use this information to guide you on which banking partner to use for an optimal funding experience.
How long will it take for transfers to be added to a funding account?
The following are generic timeframes, with "T" being the day of booking and before the processing bank's cut-off time. Your Bank should be able to provide you with their own settlement cycles for each currency, as these may differ according to your bank. Timescales may also be impacted according to your Bank’s cut-off time.
These timeframes are indicative and should only be used as a reference point.
Once JP Morgan receives a transfer, it is instantly credited to your funding account. This means that if a transfer is sent before your bank’s cut-off time and is received by JP Morgan (even after working hours) it will be available for you to use – effectively offering a 24/7 credit reflection.
All payments can be subject to screening which, in some instances, may cause a delay to the funds being applied.
CURRENCY | TYPE OF TRANSFER | TIMEFRAMES |
---|---|---|
CNY | Wire | T+1 |
EUR | Wire | T+1 |
GBP | Wire | T+1 |
HKD | Wire | T+1 |
SGD | Wire | T+1 |
SGD | FAST | Instant (Maximum SGD 200K Limit) |
SGD | ACH | T+1 (Unlimited) |
USD | Wire | T+1 |
Virtual Account Numbers (VAN)
JP Morgan provides a virtual account number for each funding account. You can use this virtual account number to transfer money to your Nium funding account. Transferring money to a virtual account number is the same as sending a bank transfer to a regular account number. The virtual account number can be retrieved from the Nium Portal by following the instructions found in the section How do I deposit money to a funding account .
Once JP Morgan receives the transfer, it will automatically be applied to your funding account.
How much does JP Morgan cost?
The only cost for using JP Morgan is the cost of a wire transfer applied by your bank or any intermediary bank involved in the payment process. JP Morgan does not add any additional bank charges.

Common causes for delays
The payment was made after your bank’s cut-off times | If your bank’s cut-off time is at 4:00 pm and you request a payment to be sent at 4:15 pm, this payment will not leave your bank until the next processing time, which could be the next day. Please ask your bank for their cut-off times, as these may affect your outbound payments. |
Weekends and bank holidays | Payments are not processed on weekends and bank holidays. The processing data will be the next available day (e.g., Monday in case of weekends). |
Currency holidays | If you send a currency with a country holiday, this may impact your transfer. For example, Singapore bank holidays will stop SGD from being credited to an SGD account, regardless of the location you send your transfer from. Transfers can be expected to be deposited on the next working day. The following section lists all currency holidays for 2024. |
