How soon after I place an order will the money come out of my account?
Your bank account will be debited one business day after your initial purchase is completed at the dispensary. For ecommerce orders, a balance check against your bank account will occur at the time the order is placed and again at the time the order is finalize at the register. For in store orders, a balance check only occurs when the order is finalized at the register. You may not see the charge process in your bank account immediately after the order is finalized however, as the payment is not instantaneous.
To prevent any issues with your bank account or use of your Pay by Bank account, please ensure the appropriate funds are available up to 24 hours after the purchase is made.
If an order is cancelled before the order is completed at the register, no charge will be made on the account used to place the order.
How will these payments show up on my bank statement?
This can vary by bank, but generally payments made with Pay by Bank will the name of the dispensary where the order was placed, as well as, Pay by Bank or some combination of the two.

Why won’t my bank account successfully link after I entered valid credentials?
Ensure both “Profile Information” and “Statements” boxes are checked. Depending on your bank, you may encounter a screen asking you to share certain data elements with Dutchie.

If you encounter an error message saying that we cannot connect to your bank account, a likely resolution is to complete the link process again and ensure that data sharing is enabled.
