Hello,

Echeck is something that happens on paypal's end and we have no way of
controlling that so I was not aware it wouldn't be an "instant" payment.
There are several reasons that when you send money from paypal and it sends
in the form of an "echeck" instead of an "instant" payment like one example
is  because the credit card associated with your paypal account didn't
process correctly when paypal tried to bill the card so paypal then uses the
bank account associated with your paypal account to send the money in the
form of an echeck. Or if there is no credit card tied to your paypal account
and only a bank account then an echeck is used.

Just wanted to make sure you understand that the delay is not caused on our
end, but Paypal's echeck method associated with your paypal account. 99.5%
of all paypal payments come through as an "instant" payment and we have no
control over the "echeck" method that paypal uses.

Thanks
