To transfer funds from POSB to OCBC using an ATM, insert your card, select "More Services" > "Funds Transfer" > "To Other Bank," and enter the OCBC account details.

Step-by-Step Guide: Transferring from POSB to OCBC via ATM
Transferring funds between local Singapore banks like POSB and OCBC is typically done via the FAST (Fast And Secure Transfers) network. Here is the precise 3-step process to complete this at a DBS/POSB ATM:
- Initiate the Transaction: Insert your POSB ATM card and enter your PIN. From the main menu, select "More Services" followed by "Funds Transfer / Fixed Deposit".
- Select Recipient Details: Choose "To Other Bank Account (FAST)". You will be prompted to select the bank code for OCBC (usually 7339) and enter the recipient's account number.
- Confirm and Send: Enter the amount you wish to transfer. Review the details on the screen carefully. Once confirmed, the funds are transferred instantly.
Optimizing Your Money: From Local Banks to Global Payouts
While ATM transfers are effective for domestic movement between POSB and OCBC, they are often limited when you need to move money internationally. Traditional bank wire transfers can take 3-5 days and often include hidden markup fees.
Panda Remit connects seamlessly with your Singapore bank accounts (via PayNow or Bank Transfer) to offer a superior global remittance experience.
