After sending out the payment request, the recipient will receive a feed on their Activities page and a push notification message to notify him/her of the payment request received.

After you have sent out a payment request, a corresponding feed will be shown on your Message section. Simply click the corresponding feed of the payment request to show all recipients and click the 'Send Reminder' button to send out a payment reminder to a recipient who has yet to respond. A push notification message will be sent to this recipient to remind him/her to respond to your request. You may only send out a payment reminder one day after the payment request had been sent and may only deliver one reminder every day.
No, you cannot update your payment request after it has been sent out. You can only cancel it before your friend responds to it.
Yes, your payment request will expire in 90 days if it has not been settled.
If you are unable to receive P2P payments from your friends, it may be due to one of the following reasons:
- Your Wallet balance, including any pending funds, has already exceeded or will exceed the stored value limit after receipt of the payment from your friends; or
- Your annual transaction limit has already been exceeded or will be exceeded after receiving payment from your friends; or
- You have requested to cancel your Wallet.
All payment transactions cannot be cancelled once completed. Please ensure the recipient and transfer details are correct before you submit the transaction. If you have mistakenly made a payment to a wrong person, please contact the recipient directly to arrange to have the money reimbursed to you.
If the case cannot be resolved, you can raise a refund request by downloading the Octopus Wallet Mis-Transfer Transaction Refund Request Form and submit the completed form to us by email or mail.
