1. ACH Origination
With Automated Clearing House (ACH) Origination, you can create electronic payments and deposits without hassle. Both debit and credit transactions will maximize your time and simplify essential tasks. Types of transactions can include:
Payroll Benefits
Direct deposit makes payday simple for your employees. No more heading out to deposit or cash their paychecks –the money is already in their accounts.
- Processing automatic debits to your business account at the end of the month means your accounting department will have fewer checks to reconcile
- Your business will distribute far fewer checks; you’ll save time and money without all those checks to endorse and send
- No more reissuing checks or placing stop payments on lost payroll checks
ACH Debit Payments
Recurring payments can include monthly utilities, fitness club dues or other memberships, property management fees, donations, and other continuing payments. Automatic payments ensure:
- Your payments will arrive on their due dates
- You have immediate access to funds
- The elimination of sending additional notices or paying collection fees for late payments
Vendor Payments
ACH Origination can also be used to pay bills to third parties, such as vendors, suppliers, or customers. It eliminates paper checks and provides a more efficient way to manage bill payments.
