Transfer Money From Your Account (Instantly or Standard ACH)
DoorDash Crimson gives you two ways to move money out of your account — so you can access your funds the way that works best for you:
Instant Transfers(1): Send money to a linked debit or reloadable card in seconds — for a small fee.
Standard ACH Transfers: Move funds to a linked bank account in 3-5 business days, with no fee.
As mentioned above, instant transfers allow you to quickly move funds from your DoorDash Crimson account to your linked debit or reloadable prepaid card for a fee. It’s the fastest way to send your money from DoorDash Crimson to another account when you need it.
Whichever option you choose, whether you’re paying a bill today or transferring money to savings, DoorDash Crimson offers flexible, secure, and transparent options to help you stay in control of your money.
1 Instant Transfers generally occur immediately, but delays or failures may occur. Funds availability depends on the receiving financial institution. Instant Transfers are not allowed in the first 24 hours after a new debit card is added. Transfers may also be limited for an additional 24 hours after card verification. For details about transfer limits, please see the Deposit Account Agreement.
