What Is ACH

Automated Clearing House (ACH) is an electronic network for financial transactions in the United States.

The ACH Network processes two types of transactions: Direct Deposits via ACH and Direct Payments via ACH.

Direct Deposit via ACH is the deposit of funds for payroll, employee expense reimbursement, government benefits, tax and other refunds, and annuities and interest payments. It includes any ACH credit payment from a business or government to a consumer.

  • A Direct Deposit processed as an ACH credit pushes funds into an account. An example of this is when a consumer initiates a payment through their bank or credit union to pay a bill.

  • A Direct Payment processed as an ACH debit pulls funds from an account. An example of this is when a consumer establishes a recurring monthly payment for a mortgage or utility bill, and their account is debited automatically.


  • Most Banks Support ACH Payment
