ACH Card

The Automated Clearing House (ACH) program is a consumer convenience that gives you the option of payment-enabling frequent shopper cards or issuing proprietary-branded ACH cards.


Either way, the customer swipes a mag-stripe or bar-coded card, enters a personal identification number (PIN), and funds move automatically from the cardholder’s account to your store’s account via ACH transfer.

You get all the benefits of:

  • Eliminating paper checks from the account and settlement process
  • Increased customer loyalty as a result of adding value to the store frequency card
  • More impulse buying by customers who may not be carrying checks or cash
  • The convenience of single-point settlement of funds
