Automatic Clearing House (ACH), an electronic payment system, improves office productivity and efficiency while reducing labor and material costs. ACH automatically processes monthly credits, such as payroll, dividends, interest and annuities. ACH also processes monthly payments, such as insurance premiums, utility payments and dues so you can spend less time processing paper and more time building your business.
