Banco de México says a SPEI payment should take no more than 30 seconds after approval, and BlindPay's docs list SPEI payouts as instant.

The check digit lets software reject many typing mistakes before any money moves, but it does not prove the account exists or belongs to the named person.",{"q":17,"a":18},"Can I pay a debit card or a phone number over SPEI?","On BlindPay, yes. A SPEI bank account can use the debitcard or phonenum protocol instead of a CLABE, and both need the bank's institution code.
