Why can’t banks make transfers and payments on the weekend when everything is digital and automated?

1.23K views

At least where I live, if I make a transfer between my accounts (with different banks) too late on a Friday, the money won’t be available until Monday. But there are no humans involved in this process – it seems to me that could be instantaneous as far as the technology is concerned. What am I missing?

One of the most annoying things about banks by far.

Nothing worse then forgetting about a holiday only for your ACH transfer to take longer than expected and suffer from potential late fees.
