Hi Clinton,

Thanks for all the help.

To clarify/give some context, these questions were brought up by my finance 
department while trying to project/calculate revenue for the course we're 
building given the inbound requests we currently have. After speaking with 
them a bit more, I think they were under the impression that edX (and not 
Open edX) would be the ones that would be paying us. They were thinking 
that receiving a wire from edX would simplify the payment process and were 
therefore curious as to how often they can expect a wire payment (batching 
many tuition fees and sending them off as a wire transfer at regular 
intervals). 

They are aware that PayPal and other payment processors are an option but 
preferred a wire transfer to reduce fees. However, as you mentioned, we 
absolutely want consumers/students to be enrolled immediately after paying.

In terms of the withdrawal period, their concern was related to the 
processing of the transaction and how long it would take to update our 
account. Meaning if a student enrolls in the course and pays through 
PayPal, Stripe, or any of the other payment processors that are offered, 
will our account with that payment processor be updated immediately, 
weekly, monthly, quarterly etc. once the purchase has taken place?  

>From my understanding, with any of these options, once a student enrolls in 
the course and pays the tuition, our account will get credited/updated 
immediately. But if we'd like to actually withdraw those funds to our bank 
account, it would take 1 to 2 days. Correct?

Best,

Ilan
