Understanding Ria Transfer Statuses 

When you track your transfer, you’ll see a status update. Here’s what each one means and what you might need to do. 

 

Status 

What It Means 

What You Should Do 

Processing 

Ria has received your order and payment details; it’s being prepared. 

Sit tight—no action needed unless it stays here unusually long. 

In Progress 

The transfer is moving through Ria’s system to the recipient’s delivery method. 

Just wait; delays may occur due to bank hours, time zones, or security checks. 

Ready for Pickup 

Funds are available at the chosen cash pickup location. 

Tell your recipient to bring a valid ID and reference number.

 

Deposited to Bank 

The money has been successfully deposited into the recipient’s bank account. 

Wait a few hours if it doesn’t appear right away—some banks take time to reflect deposits. 

Delivered to Mobile Wallet 

Funds are now available in the recipient’s mobile wallet. 

Nothing—recipient can spend or withdraw instantly. 

Completed 

The transfer is fully processed and closed. 

No further action needed. 

On Hold 

Ria needs more information or is reviewing the transfer for security/compliance. 

Contact customer service to resolve the hold quickly. 

Cancelled 

The transaction was stopped by you, the recipient, or due to Ria’s rules. 

Expect a refund within 3–10 business days depending on payment method. 


Frequently Asked Questions About Tracking Ria Transfers 


Can I track a transfer without a reference number? 

No, you need either your order number, PIN, or reference number to track transfers. If you’ve lost this information, contact customer service with your personal details and transfer information for assistance.

Why is my transfer taking longer than expected? 

Several factors can extend processing time: bank holidays in either country, additional security verification, incorrect recipient information, or high transaction volumes during peak periods. 


What happens if my recipient can’t pick up the money right away? 

Cash pickup locations typically hold funds for 30-90 days. Contact customer service if your recipient needs more time, as extensions may be possible depending on circumstances. 


Can I change the delivery method after sending? 

Generally, no. Delivery methods lock in when you submit your transfer. Contact customer service immediately if you need changes, though options may be limited once processing begins.
