Overview

When a bank transfer beats a card

ACH transactions are priced very differently from card transactions. For a business invoicing thousands of dollars at a time, or billing the same customer every month, moving those payments off cards can change the economics of the whole account. The trade-off is settlement time and a different set of return codes to manage — both of which we set up with you.

What’s included

How the setup works for your account

01

Flat-fee pricing model

ACH is commonly priced per transaction rather than as a percentage, which matters most on large tickets.

02

One-time and recurring debits

Charge a single invoice or run a scheduled debit against an authorised account.

03

Return handling

Insufficient funds, closed accounts and revoked authorisations come back with codes; we help you build a retry and notification process.

04

Authorisation records

Store proof of the customer's consent, which is what protects you if a debit is challenged.

Detail

How it works

01

Collect authorisation

The customer supplies routing and account details and agrees to the debit in writing or through a recorded process.

02

Submit the entry

The debit is submitted into the ACH network in the next batch window.

03

Settlement

Funds typically settle in one to several business days depending on the service level on your account.

FAQ

Common questions

Slower than cards. Standard ACH settles in a small number of business days. Same-day options exist on some accounts.

You receive a return code explaining why. Some returns can be retried; others require you to contact the customer. High return rates can put an account under review.
