How to Send an ACH Payment: Tips and Tricks

Sending an ACH payment can be a bit of a challenge, especially when using your bank's interface. The key is making sure you're entering the right data into the right field, as the fields don't always follow the same order. In this article, we'll explore the two ways to send an ACH payment and provide some valuable tips for success.

Method 1: Using Your Bank's Website

The first way to send an ACH payment is by using your bank's website. To do so, you'll need to log in to your online banking account and follow these steps:

* Enter the ID number (which will be generated automatically by E-File for each payment)

* Specify the Payment Amount (ensure it matches the exact amount entered in E-File)

* Provide the Receiving DFI Identification (ABA Routing #)

It's essential to double-check your entries to avoid errors. For a seamless process, refer to our Tips for Success article for additional guidance.

Method 2: Using Your Bank's Mobile App or Online Banking Platform

The second way to send an ACH transfer is by using your bank's mobile app or online banking platform. Once you've started your payment in E-File and obtained a unique Identification Number, follow these steps:

* Log in to your bank's online account or open the mobile app

* Select the option to initiate an ACH transfer

* Enter the required information, including the ID number, Payment Amount, and Receiving DFI Identification (ABA Routing #)

Remember that for either method, we must receive all necessary information in the correct fields to accept your payment. To ensure a smooth process, always verify your entries before submitting your payment.

By following these steps and tips, you'll be able to successfully send an ACH payment using your bank's interface. If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to reach out to our team for assistance.
