ACH Payments for Shoppers

ACH Payments for Shoppers

What is ACH?

ACH stands for Automated Clearing House and is an electronic, bank-to-bank transfer of funds. It is secure, less expensive to run, and nearly as fast as a credit card transaction. Paying with ACH is a great option whether your farm allows you to pay their fees or not. 

How do I pay with ACH? 

At checkout, Click on the Payment box and select "Add Bank Account": 

 
On the next screen, enter your information and search for your bank. Some banks will not appear. In that case, select, "Enter bank details manually instead":



Verification

For more information about bank account verification, have a look at this Stripe article. You will need to use one of the allowed verification methods. Most banks either use Instant verification or Microdeposit verification where the bank deposits some small amounts and you have to enter them into a verification page on their website.
