Using the portal ensures that only you can request deletion or other changes to your data as the portal requires that you sign in using the same bank credentials you used for transactions completed on the Trustly platform. Once you’ve authenticated with your bank, you can view the details of any transaction in our system and request your data be deleted by going to the Profile & Accounts screen.
Please note: Data deletion is not immediate and there are legal obligations we are subject to that require the storage of data for a certain amount of time. For example, certain rules and regulations enacted to fight money laundering require that we store some data for at least five years after a payment transaction is made using Trustly’s services. To read more about why and how we store personal data, our privacy and data retention policies are available on our website at https://us.trustly.com/privacy-policy
If you have any more questions about your data deletion, please contact the privacy team at amer-privacy@trustly.com.
Note: This will affect any and all merchants using the Trustly platform for products, services, and account to account transfers to and from any and all bank accounts you may have.
Please check all of the following:
- Ensure that the card you are using is a debit card with the Visa or MasterCard symbol.
- Verify that the card is current with an expiration date in the future.
- Check the CVV code on the back of the card.
- Confirm the amount is within your bank's accepted debit limits.
Note: You may have a transaction limit, a daily limit, or both. - Ensure you have funds are available in your account, accounting for possible pending items.
To resolve the error, check all of the above, correct any data entry errors you may find, and then try the transaction again. If you still receive the error, please contact your financial institution for further details.
If your debt is sent to an outside collection agency, you may have additional payment options available to you.
Once the debt is resolved, you’ll be able to transact again. Note: Standard terms and conditions still apply.
Please note that revoking your consent to share data with Trustly may also impact your ability to make payments at Trustly merchants.

If you notice a delay in your withdrawal or payout, there may be several reasons for the delay.
The most common are:
- Bank Handling Times. Banks may have different processing times, particularly across time zones. In general, a bank transfer should not take more than two business days, excluding weekends and holidays.
- Weekends or Holidays. Please keep in mind that weekends and holidays affect processing times.
- Bank Maintenance. In general bank site maintenance is done off cycle, but there may be times when bank maintenance interferes with the expected processing time. check with your bank to see if there were any outages or maintenance performed during the transaction period.
- Transaction Rejection. In some cases, your bank has rejected the transaction due to a restriction or limitation on accounts. Check with your bank for transaction limitations or restrictions that may impact your account.
- Outstanding Debt. If you have debt resulting from a transaction that was returned to a merchant, you may not be able to perform a payout or withdrawal transaction until that debt has been satisfied.
If still you are missing funds after ruling out standard processing delays, please contact the merchant and request a Payout Receipt. With this Payout Receipt, contact your bank to see if the transfer has been delayed or stopped for any reason.
For further information on withdrawal delays, check with the merchant to verify their withdrawal process.
The instant deposit limit is set by the merchant and determines the amount that can be instantly transferred through Trustly.

There may be several reasons you haven't received your refund from your merchant yet.
Trustly is a digital payment provider which works as an intermediary between the consumer and the merchant. That means that we process transactions, but we don't hold your funds. Instead, they are forwarded directly to your bank account from the merchant as soon as they initiate a refund in their system.
When a refund is initiated by the merchant, it will be sent directly from the merchant back to your bank account, without stopping at Trustly. We do not hold your funds. The timeframe for this is according to the merchant's refund policy.
Some things to keep in mind:
- Please be aware that there might be internal delays with handling refund requests from merchants related to travel due to increased demand. Please contact your travel merchant for further information.
- Please also note that any notification about the purchase, confirmation email, tickets etc. is purely associated with the merchant. Therefore, Trustly isn't able to provide these.
- Weekend and holidays may affect the processing time of your transactions.
Trustly is not in a position to initiate refunds nor can we cancel transactions. If the need arises for a refund or cancellation, please contact the merchant directly.
A Proof of Payment is a document from your bank that shows a payment's transaction details.
Trustly Consumer Support may ask you to provide a Proof of Payment when working to locate or verify a transaction in our system. The Proof of Payment needs to be received before we are able to provide any information or details about the payment.
Proof of Payment can be submitted as either a picture (PNG or JPEG) or a PDF file, and can be attached to your reply to the request from the support team.
A valid Proof of Payment should contain the following details:
- Name of account holder
- Amount
- Datestamp
- Sending bank account number
- Receiving bank account number
- Reference number (usually 10 digits)
If you do not know how to find your Proof of Payment, please contact your bank for assistance.

Trustly is a payment method that makes it easy for you to pay for items directly from your online bank account in a fast, simple, and secure way. This includes transactions for item such as subscription services, loans, or utility payments.
With Direct Debit, you have given Trustly a mandate to debit funds directly from your bank account on behalf of the merchant. Trustly manages these mandates so that the merchant can initiate recurring payments which are then debited from your bank account.
If you would like to cancel a mandate, or have any questions about the recurring payments, please contact the merchant directly.
In general, it takes one bank day for a mandate to register and become active.
Since Trustly is not the receiving entity, we can not issue any receipts or official documents. Only the merchant can provide you with these since the payment belongs to them.
We are a digital payment provider — an intermediary between the consumer and the merchant. You have made a purchase directly from the merchant. If you need a receipt, please contact the merchant’s customer support.
Trustly One-Click is part of our Direct Debit service available in the UK. After digitally signing the mandate once on the merchant’s website, you will be able to complete transactions with this merchant in the future with just one click, negating the need to sign each transaction individually.
