Due to its convenience, many people use WeChat transfer to make transactions on daily basis. However, there's a danger that lies in it. You might transfer your money to the wrong account, and when it happens, it might not be easy for you to get your money back.


Luckily for us, WeChat has just launched a new function recently, and it is called delayed transfer. If you enable this function, you set a time for the money transfer into the receiver's account, and you may cancel the transfer before that time.
