When is my buy order executed?

Updated over a week ago

All Stock buy or sell orders made through the Plum app are processed in real-time, including the Foreign Exchange (FX) conversion of the funds, which occurs immediately.

However, the actual execution of the order takes place on the following working day, once all fund transfers through our investment broker are successfully finalized. Please note that it is possible to cancel a buy or sell order that you've placed but has not yet been executed.

For buy orders of U.S. stocks, you'll receive confirmation that your order has been completed 2 working days after it was initially placed.

If you're selling U.S. stocks, your funds will be returned to your Primary Plum Pocket 2 working days after the order was placed.
