Are there any limitations or caps (frequency / $-amounts) on ACH bill payments?

phaedrus · ‎November 04, 2022

Can any amounts and frequencies be paid (via Melio) from QB using a checking account, or are there any limitations such as a maximum bill amount or a maximum number of bills per month?

For instance, could I make a $1M bill payment through QB if I needed to? Could I make 1,000 such payments every month?

Hi there, @phaedrus,

Let me provide you with some information about ACH payments. According to the National Automated Clearing House Association (NACHA), you can process ACH transfer up to $1,000,000 per day. This is much higher from the previous $100,000 limit.

For Melio payments limits, I suggest contacting their support team for confirmation. You can go to this link and refer to the Contact located below the App information.

Feel free to add a reply if you need further assistance with your QuickBooks account. Keep safe.

You can sign up for a free Melio account to integrate with QBO and I didn't find any restrictions on paying any bills, except they take up to 5 business days for international payments over $100K.

Can you increase ACH $ cap within QuickBooks without using Melia

Hi there, Alva.

To increase the ACH payment limit in QuickBooks, I recommend using QuickBooks Bill Pay. Over time, your ACH limits can increase as your business builds a payment history, making it easier to handle larger transactions. This way, you won’t need to rely on other tools like Melio.

Please note that ACH limits in QuickBooks Bill Pay vary between customers. Companies with a strong payment history in Merchant Services or QuickBooks Payments usually qualify for higher limits. New QuickBooks Online users often start with lower limits, which can increase after the first and third months, depending on payment activity.

You should consider Melio as a workaround and you can get cashbacks.
