Issuing and collecting payments is quick, easy and secure with Seacoast Bank's ACH processing for business.
The Automated Clearing House (ACH) Network electronically transfers funds between bank accounts across the U.S. ACH bank payments are not only convenient, but they also often have lower transaction fees than credit and debit cards while eliminating the security risks of paper checks.

An ACH transfer allows for the seamless movement of money between bank accounts. ACH transfers are commonly used for direct deposit of salaries, bill payments, business-to-business payments or to collect payments from customers.
The process typically requires the payer to provide their bank account details, including the routing number and account number, as well as the payee's information. Once initiated, the ACH system facilitates the transfer of funds from the payer's bank to the payee's account.
These transfers can be ACH credits, which allow you to issue payments, or ACH debits, which allow you to collect payments.
Utilizing ACH Debit Originations brings forth two primary advantages: cash concentration and efficient cash collection. Cost-effectiveness and fund availability also contribute to the expansive benefits of this network.
ACH Credit Originations allow you to send singular or reoccurring payments to individuals or other businesses. Businesses frequently leverage this for the "direct deposit" of funds to retirees or employees.
Cost and efficiency stand out as the primary advantages of initiating payments through the ACH network.
Bank wire transfers and ACH transfers are both electronic methods of transferring money between bank accounts. However, they have distinct differences.
Bank wire transfers are aimed toward immediate transactions, high-value transfers or international payments. With same-day processing, bank wires ensure that your money reaches its destination swiftly.
However, wire transfers are associated with higher fees, so they are usually reserved for high-stakes situations. At times, they also require an in-person visit to a nearby branch to execute.
ACH transfers are a cost-conscious method for businesses seeking an efficient, reliable solution. ACH transactions also typically incur lower fees or even come at no cost.
This makes them a great choice for payroll processing, bill payments and invoicing. The user-friendly process, often available through online banking apps, adds to the convenience of these routine or singular transactions.
