Seeing a pending or failed withdrawal on Robinhood can be stressful—especially when you need your money urgently. The good news is that, in most cases, this issue happens due to timing rules, bank verification problems, or temporary restrictions, not because your money is lost.

This guide explains all possible reasons, what actions to take, and how to prevent future withdrawal failures.

1. Why Is My Robinhood Withdrawal Pending or Failed?

This is one of the most common Robinhood user questions.

Your withdrawal may be pending or failed due to:

• Unsettled funds after selling stocks or ETFs

• Pending bank deposits

• Incorrect bank details

• Bank rejection of ACH transfer

• Temporary account restriction or review

• Attempting to withdraw more than withdrawable cash

In most cases, the issue resolves automatically within 24–72 hours.

2. Why Am I Not Able to Withdraw My Money From Robinhood?

Even if your account balance shows funds, not all money is immediately withdrawable.

Common reasons include:

• Trades are still settling

• Deposits haven’t fully cleared

• Withdrawable cash is lower than total balance

• Account verification is incomplete

To confirm eligibility, always check the Withdrawable Cash section.

3. Pending Withdrawals Due to Trade Settlement

After selling stocks:

• Funds require a settlement period

• During this time, withdrawals remain pending

• This is normal and not an error

Even though the balance updates instantly, withdrawals are restricted until settlement completes.

4. Bank Transfer Rejected: What Should I Do?

If your withdrawal fails or is rejected, take these steps:

• Double-check routing and account numbers

• Ensure your bank supports ACH transfers

• Confirm the bank account is in your name

• Remove and relink the bank account if needed

• Retry the withdrawal after 24 hours

Bank rejections are one of the top reasons for failed withdrawals.
