For most retail transfers under €/$2,000 the limits will not be a concern; larger amounts may require additional ID verification.
Transfer times vary by provider and payment method. Bank transfers typically take 1-3 business days, while some services offer instant transfers to mobile wallets or cash pickup locations. Check each provider's delivery time when comparing options.
