VALUTA DATE - Does it mean its paid?
A future date used in determining the value of a product that fluctuates in price. Typically, you will see the use of value dates in determining the payment of products and accounts where there is a possibility for discrepancies due to differences in the timing of valuation. Such products include forward currency contracts, option contracts, and the interest payable or receivable on personal accounts. Also referred to as "valuta"
My online banking always shows the 'transaction date' and the 'valuta date' separately. The only time that they are different is when the transaction takes place at a weekend or holiday and the value date is then the next banking day. It also applies if an electronic payment in is made after banking hours one day when the money only becomes available to me on the next banking day.
If someone has shown you a screenshot of their account, it means that the money has left their account so it should be in your account within, say, 48 hours.
