Significant Savings
You're simply losing money by not accepting ACH payments. ACH payments cost roughly 17x's less than credit card payments. Do the math. For a $300 credit card transaction you'll pay $8.50 ($300 x .0275 +.25). Our ACH flat fee pricing will cost you .50 cents. Now take $8.50 divided by .50 = 17.
