**Pike Lending’s loans are usually funded by Automated Clearing House (ACH) electronic crediting directly to your bank account. ACH transfers that are completed by 2:00 pm CST will usually be available the next business day. Unavoidable delays that occur as a result of bank holidays, the processing schedule of your individual bank, inadvertent processing errors, "acts of God", and/or "acts of terror " may extend the time for the deposit and may cause a change in the Disbursement Date.
