Or do I have to wait until the transaction posts to transfer? Thanks
Pretty sure you'll have to wait for the charge to actually post. It's kind of like a hotel putting a temporary hold on your credit card. It's pending but may not post. WF is going to need an actual charge to post to free up that CL.
