ACH or Automated Clearing House is a form of payment that is managed by NACHA (previously called the National Automated Clearing House Association). ACH payments are a popular means by which people or organizations make payments to their payees. ACH generally has a nominal charge and is processed within one business day, though it can take up to almost three days in some cases. ACH transfers are of two types, ACH direct payments, and ACH direct deposits. Governments and other institutions make ACH direct deposits to pay people government funds, interests of deposits, payrolls, etc. Customers or businesses use ACH direct payments on the other hand, for transferring funds; some examples of direct payment are bill payments, sending money to loved ones, paying for purchases, donating to charity, and so on. Another advantage of ACH payments is that they require no financial instruments like checks, credit, or debit cards for conducting transfers; money is directly taken from their checking accounts.
