How long do Pot deposits take?

Emma Pots are only available to UK-based customers.

How long a deposit takes depends on how you add the money.

Open Banking Transfer: usually 1 working day to reach your Pot.
Direct Debit, including Autosave: usually up to 5 working days from when the payment is collected.

You can see a deposit that's on its way by tapping the Save tab and opening your Pot.

UK bank holidays and weekends can delay deposits.

If your deposit hasn't arrived within these times, contact our support team via in-app chat.
