What is an eCheque and how does it work?
An eCheque is a non-instant payment. It is processed by the buyer’s bank and transferred into the seller’s PayPal account. This process usually takes up to 5 business days, depending on your bank. You can check the status of eCheque payments in your PayPal account. We recommend that sellers wait until the funds clear into their PayPal account before posting any items. eCheque payments could be sent when the buyer does not have sufficient funds in their PayPal balance to cover the entire transaction cost, and they don’t have a back-up funding source, such as a bank account, credit or debit card.
