    If it is similar to the Aus set up, yes.

    Aus banks have instant (under 30 seconds) transfers directly from your banking/website app to any account held by any financial institution (bank, credit union etc) in Australia for about a decade.

    Third party pay apps like Venmo never took off there because the banks’ solution was available to everyone, and it is easier, faster and free of charge.
