Some ACH Frequently Asked Questions

What is an ACH transfer?

An Automated Clearing House (ACH) transfer is a payment method used by both businesses and individuals. It allows you to move money between accounts at different banks.

Are ACH Transfers Secure?

ACH transfers are extremely secure. Financial institutions, including banks where you have accounts, are required to undergo regular audits for security. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau is responsible for overseeing the laws and regulations that govern ACH transfers.

Unlike wire transfers, which pass through several different third party companies before making their way to the recipient's bank account, an ACH transfer only passes through your bank's servers. This is a more secure process. You don't have to worry about unauthorized access at any point in the transfer process.

How Long Do ACH Transfers Take?

ACH transfers are often completed in one business day. They can take up to 3 days depending on the day of the week the transfer was initiated and how that aligns with non-operational days like holidays or how long it takes the financial institution to process the transaction.
