Bank-to-bank collection
Collect larger invoices directly from a bank account
ACH payments debit a customer's bank account instead of charging a card, which suits recurring and high-value invoices. RapidCents records the customer's authorization before the first debit, runs one-off or scheduled debits on agreed dates, notifies the customer first and retries failed debits on a set schedule. For businesses in the USA, confirm ACH is enabled on your account.

Questions about ACH / Bank Payments
When are bank payments better than cards?
On large or recurring invoices, where a percentage card fee costs materially more than a bank debit.
Do I need the customer's permission?
Yes. A mandate is captured and stored before any debit is submitted.
What happens when a debit fails?
It follows the retry schedule you configure, and the status is visible in the dashboard.
Can I run cards and bank payments together?
Yes. Both settle into the same reporting so finance reconciles once.
What exactly is a mandate, and how is it collected?
A mandate is the customer's authorization to debit their account. It is collected with the bank details on a secure surface, stored before the first debit is submitted, and kept on file for the life of the arrangement.
How is this different from recurring card billing?
Recurring card billing charges a stored card token, so it depends on the card staying valid and carries a percentage fee. A bank debit pulls from the account under a mandate. Both can run on the same account and land in the same deposit reporting.
Can my accounting or ERP system connect to it?
RapidCents connects to many major accounting and ERP platforms, and your RapidCents representative will walk you through the option for your software before go-live. Bank payments are reachable through the same REST APIs and signed webhooks as card volume, so your systems receive both the same way.
How are bank payments priced?
They are priced on your RapidCents account alongside card volume: your RapidCents markup, stated in your Fee Schedule, and fees for equipment or services, if applicable. The agreement has no fixed term.
Can a U.S. business collect by ACH?
Yes. ACH bank payments debit the customer's bank account directly, either once or as a recurring series on dates agreed with the customer, and they settle into the same deposit reporting as card volume.
