A transaction account is a type of bank account used for daily transactions such as depositing and withdrawing money, paying bills, and transferring funds.
What does pending transaction mean on my bank account?
A pending transaction on a bank account means that a transaction has been authorised by the account holder, but it has not yet been processed to the account.
This can occur when a merchant or service provider has obtained authorisation to charge the account, but has not yet completed the transaction. This is usually why you'll see a pending transaction right after you've paid for a good or service.
