Quick question with regards to bank processing for those banking people here.

I had a very late customer pay a fairly large bill tonight with their credit card (finally).

The way my credit card processing works, if transactions are in by 5 PM, they post to my bank account during the FOLLOWING night's processing.

So if someone pays their bill Monday at 4:00 PM, I'll have it overnight Tuesday, available Wednesday morning. If they pay their bill Monday at 9:00 PM, I'd usually get it overnight Wednesday night, available Thursday morning (since it would be considered a transaction on Tuesday).

With the holiday this Friday, I'm a bit confused as to how things will work. Since he paid tonight at 9:00 PM, it will go on Wednesday's transaction report, which means it would normally deposit Thursday night, available Friday morning. But with the holiday Friday, will it now not post until Monday?

I'm not a banker, but I've seen a lot of transactions post on Saturdays. You might see it Saturday.

I always assume the worst, when it's there sooner I'm pleasantly surprised. Never expect much in terms of processing times during holidays.

Thursday night is not the Holiday, Friday night is.
