Your rights with payment apps & money transfer services
For international transfers the Remittance Rule gives you 180 days to report an error and a right to cancel within 30 minutes in most cases. Payment apps that hold money in an account are generally covered by Regulation E for unauthorized transfers - report them quickly and in writing. Payments you authorized yourself, even to a scammer, are much harder to get back.
