Yes, you can transfer funds from POSB to OCBC instantly via PayNow. Simply use the recipient's mobile number or UEN to complete the transaction. Beyond local transfers, Panda Remit supports seamless PayNow payments for international remittances, allowing funds to arrive in as little as 2 minutes with 24/7 real-time processing.
How to Transfer from POSB to OCBC via PayNow
Transferring money locally between Singapore banks is seamless thanks to the FAST network. Follow these 3 simple steps to send money from your POSB account to an OCBC account:
- Log in to POSB digibank: Open your mobile app and select the "PayNow" icon on the dashboard.
- Enter Recipient Details: Select "Mobile Number" or "UEN" (for businesses) and enter the details linked to the recipient's OCBC account.
- Verify and Confirm: Check the recipient's name (it should match their OCBC account name), enter the amount, and slide to confirm. The funds are transferred instantly.
Leveraging PayNow for Global Remittance
While POSB to OCBC handles your local needs, you can use the same PayNow infrastructure to fund international transfers through Panda Remit. By choosing PayNow as your payment method on Panda Remit, you avoid the high fees and slow processing times often associated with traditional bank wires.

- What is the maximum PayNow transfer limit per day?
Most banks, including POSB, default to a daily limit (e.g., SGD 1,000 or SGD 5,000), but this can be adjusted up to SGD 200,000 depending on your settings. - Is there a fee for PayNow transfers to overseas accounts?
