Questions about Instant payments.
In most cases, Finshark’s payments are lightning-fast! They are processed instantly.

If you encounter any issues, significant delays, or have questions about your transaction, simply contact the merchant directly. If they are unable to assist, reach out to us.

We do not hold or have the authority to manage the funds – they are directly transferred to the merchant. If you require a refund, please contact the merchant directly.
You may wonder why Finshark asks about the source of your funds. The reason is that we conduct source of funds checks to comply with anti-money laundering (AML) regulations. These checks are crucial for ensuring that transactions do not involve illicit funds, adding an extra layer of security to our services.
As a regulated payment provider, Finshark is required by the Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority to perform source of funds checks. Our aim is to fulfil our regulatory obligations and safeguard the integrity and security of our services.
Don’t worry, we won’t overwhelm you with requests. According to regulations, you will be prompted to provide your source of funds information once every 12 months. It’s a quick and straightforward process that you can complete within seconds directly within the Finshark interface while making a transaction. No additional steps are required!
