Frequently Asked Questions

The payment says "Sent" (Awaiting Vendor), but my vendor hasn't received it.

"Awaiting Vendor" means the money has left your account and is waiting for the vendor to claim it into their bank — usually available to withdraw within 2–3 business days.

If they're getting paid through Digits for the first time, they need to accept the payment invitation (ask them to check spam; you can resend it).

If you see Delivery Failed, the transfer to your vendor bounced or was returned. Open the bill and choose Retry Delivery to send it again.
