1. Incorrect Beneficiary Details
Please validate your beneficiary details before initiating the transfer again.
2. Insufficient Funds in your Sleek Business Account
An SGD 100 buffer is implemented to cover any additional charges charged by the intermediary banks. Hence, you will only be able to transfer the total balance in your Sleek Business Account less the SGD 100 for any international payments.
3. Sending SGD overseas.
Currently, Sleek Business Account does not support sending SGD overseas (e.g. sending SGD overseas to Australia). You may send other currencies overseas.
4. All outgoing international payments are made by Sleek Tech Pte. Ltd. on behalf of your company.
Due to certain countries'/beneficiaries' regulations, they might reject the transaction.
