Online transfers between Ally Bank accounts are immediate.

Standard transfers between Ally Bank and non-Ally Bank accounts, requested before 1 am ET Monday – Friday, will take 3 business days.

Keep in mind, transfers between banks aren’t processed on weekends and federal holidays, so transfers take longer at those times.

Next-day Transfers

Transfers eligible for next-day delivery between Ally Bank and non-Ally Bank accounts, requested before 7:30pm ET Monday – Friday, will take 1 business day.

We determine eligibility for next-day transfers based on account tenure (so new accounts aren’t eligible), account activity, and transfer activity such as overdrafts and returns. To combat fraud, we are selective about when we offer next-day transfers.

You will not be charged a fee for standard or next-day transfers.
