receive ACH payment fees

I would like to set up in QBO for our nonprofit to receive monthly recurring tuition payments. I'm getting conflicting info on the fees. A Jan 2019 article (https://fitsmallbusiness.com/how-to-accept-recurring-payments/ - jpg attached) shows Free for ACH but when I go to Account Settings > Payments  the fee shows 1% ($10 max) for Bank Transfer.

Has the fee increased since January or am I not finding the correct info in QB?

It's great to have you back in the Community, @annstephens.

 

There are several terms of payment schemes when using QuickBooks Payments. I'd like to help route you to our Merchant Services Teams to identify how you will be charged with the ACH payment and what possible scheme you can have for your account.

 

You can get their contact information through this link: QuickBooks Online Payments.

 

You can also refer to this blog for more information about eChecks: Process ACH bank transfers right in QuickBooks.

 

Let me know if you have other questions about ACH payments. I'll be here to help however I can.

Can you please explain if the rates had gone up? In the terms it says "0.50" per transaction and in other terms it says 1% and up to $10

Thanks for following on this thread, @elig.


To check if the rates increase, we’ll have to access your Merchant account and review it. Safety and security of our customers' information is our top priority.


I'm unable to request the sensitive data required to look at your subscription in a public space like the Community. I recommend you get in touch with our Merchant Services Team.


One of our support specialists will be able to explain in detail regarding the 0.50 per transaction and the 1% and up to $10 found on another term. The most up to date contact details can be found through this link: Payments Support.


I don’t want to leave you empty-handed, so I’m adding the following article. It provides an overview of the overview of fees and plans for QuickBooks Payments: What are the fees for QuickBooks Payments?


Keep me posted if you have any other concerns or questions. I’ll pop right back to answer them for you. Have a great rest of the day.

Thanks! 

Looks like a solid solution for b2b. Apparently, you cannot accept funds from non-business bank accounts. I'm not sure how they'd monitor that but that was support is telling me.

Thanks @Fiat!

 

Apparently that is a workable solution for b2b. However, is seems that you cannot accept donations form non-business bank accounts. That is what support has told me. 

 

If someone has experience with this or if you have another solution please share.

Hi @elig,

 

There are several fixed for rejected ACH payments or fees. Let me share them with you for your guidance.

  • Know the R## codes.
  • Contact our Merchant Team to resolve the issue.

To begin with, I'll share with you the list of R## codes. These are the codes emailed to your when ACH is rejected. It contains the meaning of every code and what you can do to fix it. Here's the link: Fix rejected ACH payments or fees in QuickBooks Payments

 

Then, reach out to our Merchant Support Team so they can restart the deposit, or debit the blocked processing fees.

 

As always, feel free to visit our page about payments for more tips and recommendations.

 

Don't hesitate to come back to the Community is you need help with anything else. We're here to help. Thanks for joining and have wonderful weekend.

I wasn't asking about codes. My main concern is pricing. I run a small non-profit and I'd like to set up the ACH with the lowest fees. 

 

Melliu is nice but doesn't seem to have the ability to SCHEDULE RECURRING incoming payments.

Unhappy customers alert:

 
We would much rather wait 7 days for FREE ACH deposits instead of being forced change and now be charged 1% for next day deposits. Quickbooks new ACH changes take effect 4/12/2021. This will significantly increase our monthly cost using their accounting services. We will be researching other accounting softwares to support our business if such changes are enforced without an customer option.

Hi.

ACH Bank Transfer payments used to be free. Now I'm paying 1% for each payment. Has this changed? How can I go back to 0% fee?
