Guide
How Paysavo protects your transfer
The protections around a Paysavo transfer — before, during and after you send.
Key takeaways
- You approve the full cost before any money moves.
- Verification applies to eligible services, and unusual activity can be challenged.
- Every transfer is recorded in your history with its cost and status.
Before you send
The quote shows the rate, any fee and what your recipient receives. Nothing is charged until you approve it — walking away from a quote costs nothing.
While it is processing
Transfers pass through checks appropriate to a regulated money-services business. Actions that look unlike you may be challenged with additional verification.
After it is sent
Your account history records the transfer, its cost and its status. If something looks wrong, contact support immediately — speed matters.
What protection is not
No provider can honestly promise that money sent to a scammer is recoverable. Protection means good controls plus your own caution about who you pay — see the fraud-prevention page in the Trust Centre.

Questions
Can I cancel a transfer?
Before you approve the quote, there is nothing to cancel. After approval it depends on how far processing has progressed — contact support as quickly as possible.
What if I sent money to the wrong person?
Contact support immediately with the transaction reference. The sooner it is raised, the more options exist.
Is my money safe while a transfer processes?
Transfers are handled under the operational controls of a regulated money-services business — see the Trust Centre for how customer money is handled.
