Can a customer use their bank account to pay invoices? (ACH payments)

Hi,

A client of mine has no credit cards or even a debit card for her checking account. Since my service is monthly subscription based, I wanted to get her on recurring invoices. She asked if I could connect her checking account (ACH payments) for her payment. Can this be done through Square? 

Thanks!!

Wanted to share an exciting announcement that ACH payments are now available for Invoice payments! 

Here's the announcement post where you can find full details on it from the lovely @kellyj here! Thanks for your patience as we rolled this out. 🎉

This would be a valuable option for our brewery as most of our vendors prefer and have asked to pay by ACH. I've looked into processing through our banks, but the fees are prohibitive for a low volume of transactions.

I agree! Definitely, need an ACH payment option on invoices. Since my business is primarily online and I mostly work B2B, it's easier and faster that way. Otherwise, I've been using a different payment processing company for those higher ticket B2B invoices.

Please add the ACH payment option for us to accept direct payment from a bank. I would love to bring these invoices back over to Square, but my clients need the ACH feature mostly.

I need to be able to accept payment through my website's store in the form of EFT or ACH.  Please add this to Square!

Another vote for ACH payment processing through Square please! For my clients with higher invoices the processing fees are a turn off and they request ACH. It would be great to be able to process everything through Square instead of having to set up multiple payment accounts (authorize.net, etc).

 Definitely need this feature for business to business. Lotta businesses I deal with do not like using credit cards or debit cards. They would feel more comfortable with electronic transfer Or ACH

Hello
Is it possible for my clients to pay invoices using ACH?
Maybe it can be done through a third-party service, tell me please!

Hello @BlackhawkCountr !

Square doesn't have the ability to honor ACH payments natively. If you use a third party service, you can close the invoice to the "Other" payment and make a note that it was an ACH payment.

Another vote for ACH. Any word on when this will be added?

agree with everyone on the feature request.

I had to shift some of my invoices to stripe to accept ACH payments.

... and of course smaller fees on my end to get paid ACH vs credit card.
