ACH FAQs

What is an ACH?

An ACH transfer is an electronic, bank-to-bank transfer processed by the Automated Clearing House network, and it is essentially the electronic version of paper checks.  You will receive a confirmation number and e-mail acknowledgment of your payment request immediately.  The system is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, from your home or office.

Does it cost me money to pay electronically?

No, just like paper checks, ACH transfers are completely free for the payers.

Can I use a credit card?

No. ACH transfers are processed directly from your bank account.

How is ACH different from other payment methods?

ACH transactions are transmitted electronically between financial institutions through data transmission.  ACH provides faster processing than paper checks by eliminating physical handling.  ACH provides more economical processing than credit cards, which may carry convenience fees and finance charges.

How does ACH work?

By entering the required banking information, you authorize Woodroe Inc.’s financial institution to debit your checking or savings account for the amount you specify, for a single occurrence or on a recurring basis, depending on the preferences you indicate. 

Why should I use ACH?
Convenience.  No check to write, no stamps to buy, and no credit card debt. 

Can I use either a personal or business account for an ACH transaction?
Yes.  Check with your financial institution to ensure that the account does not have debit blocking, which prevents electronic debits.

 

What information do I need to provide for an ACH transaction?

You provide your name, address, bank routing number, account number, and payment amount.   


Where can I find my bank routing number?

Your bank routing number and bank account number can be found on the bottom of your check.  Bank routing numbers are always 9 digits long.  Account numbers may be up to 17 digits long – there is no specific number of characters for a bank account number.  These numbers may appear in different order on your check.  Some financial institutions list the routing number first on the check, while other financial institutions list the account number first.  We do not need your check number.

Do I need to notify my bank that I am paying by ACH?

You may need to check with your financial institution to make sure that the account is “ACH enabled” or that “debit blocking is removed” so that the transaction can be processed.

 

How do I know the ACH transaction was successfully processed?

After submitting your payment request, you will see a confirmation screen indicating that your request for payment was accepted.  Print and retain this important information until the transaction is processed and settled.  In addition, the confirmation number and acknowledgment will be sent to you via email.  Finally, the ACH transaction will appear on your bank statement. 

 

How will the ACH transaction appear on my bank statement?

Woodroe Woods'name will appear on your bank statement with the amount of the transaction.  It may take up to three (3) business days for the ACH transaction to post to your account.

What happens if there are insufficient funds in my checking account?

If there are insufficient funds in your account, this item will be processed the same way as a bounced check, including assessing applicable overdraft fees.

What fees or surcharges are associated with ACH?  

While there is no fee to use ACH, incorrect information provided, for example, the routing number or account number is incorrectly provided, a fee in the amount of $15 will be charged.

How are ACH credits handled?  What if I entered the wrong amount? 

Please contact us and we can either issue a refund, or apply the money to a future transaction.

Credit Card

For your convenience, we accept credit card, however, in order to make it viable for us, we apply a credit card surcharge percentage, which depends on the type of card you are using to pay. We will never charge more than the fee that is charged to us.

You may avoid fees by paying via ACH transfer instead.
