Settlement times for Shopify Payments in Singapore
Settlement time refers to the amount of time between the moment that a customer's payment is captured and when those funds are available to be sent to your bank account. The timestamp for capturing a customer's payment is recorded in Coordinated Universal Time (UTC). Payments captured on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday are consolidated and sent as a single payout.
In Singapore, the minimum settlement time is 4 business days. When you begin receiving payouts, your settlement time is longer, but as you reliably fulfill orders on time, your settlement time can decrease to match the minimum settlement time for your region.
The minimum payout amount for Shopify Payments in Singapore is $1 SGD. If a payout is less than this amount, then it stays in a pending state until more funds are available to pay out.
The actual timing for when the funds appear in your account depends on your bank's processing times. You can customize your payout schedule to a daily, weekly, or monthly payout schedule. You can't receive payouts on weekends or public holidays.
When you switch from one payout schedule to another, any pending payouts are delayed until the next applicable payout date under your new schedule. You should avoid frequent changes to your payout schedule to prevent delays in receiving your payouts.

Receiving payouts in multiple currencies with Shopify Payments in Singapore
If your store is on the Advanced plan or the Shopify Plus plan, then you can set any supported payout currency as your default payout currency. If your default payout currency is your domestic currency of SGD in Singapore, then you won't incur Multi-Currency Payout fees.
If you set up additional bank accounts for payouts, then Multi-Currency Payout fees apply based on your location and Shopify plan. Orders that are placed in a currency that isn't set up to receive Shopify Payments payouts are paid out to your default currency bank account. If the account is in a non-domestic currency, then you incur a currency exchange fee.
You aren't charged extra fees for orders in your domestic currency paid out to a bank in your domestic region, even if your domestic currency isn't your default payout currency.
If you choose a non-domestic currency as your default currency, then any payouts that you receive are charged a Multi-Currency Payout fee depending on your location and Shopify subscription plan. For example, if you use Shopify Payments in Singapore and you choose USD as your default currency, then you're charged a Multi-Currency Payout fee.
