The numbers tell the story: The ACH Network is a bright spot amid the economic uncertainty of 2022.

HERNDON, Virginia, November 30, 2022 – Nacha's Payments Innovation Alliance has created a new resource aimed at financial institutions, billers and payments processors.

Some of Nacha’s top leaders were among those informing and enlightening participants at AFP 2022 in Philadelphia.

Following the increase of the Same Day ACH dollar limit to $1 million in March 2022, Nacha and the ACH Operators - the Federal Reserve and The Clearing House - have completed the latest phase in the acceleration of ACH payments with the implementation of “Late Night ACH.”

A timely reminder that the six-month grace period for Third-Party Senders to conduct a risk assessment and implement a risk management program ends on March 31, 2023.

Steady growth continued for the ACH Network in the third quarter of 2022, with 7.6 billion payments processed valued at $19.2 trillion. Those are increases of 4.2% and 6%, respectively, from a year earlier.

Nacha released a report on its latest Risk Management Framework today, providing a new strategy for industry participants in both the ACH Network as well as other payments systems to address new and persistent frauds that increasingly make use of credit-push payments.

This Rule will define and standardize practice and formatting of Micro-Entries, which are used by some ACH Originators as a method of account validation. This phase of the Rule requires Originators of Micro-Entries to use commercially reasonable fraud detection, including the monitoring of Micro-Entry forward and return volumes.

Changes are coming in September with new late night ACH file deliveries to financial institutions that are Receiving Depository Financial Institution (RDFI) clients of both the Federal Reserve and The Clearing House.

Direct Deposit is a great way to save time and get your Labor Day festivities started sooner.

Getting dentists to switch to electronic claim payments is at the heart of Nacha's new campaign with the American Dental Association.

While most Financial Institutions are entering quality data in the ACH Contact Registry, Nacha has heard about some frustrations in using the Registry.

Increasing the Same Day ACH dollar limit to $1 million per payment posed no greater fraud risk than the prior $100,000 threshold, a new survey by Nacha’s Risk Management Advisory Group (RMAG) found. 

The next time you visit Nacha’s Risk Management Portal you’ll find several changes which are the direct results of industry input. 

While ACH is as easy as ABC in the payments world, not everyone knows about the benefits of using electronic payments. That’s where Nacha’s Industry Verticals team comes in.

The ACH Network moved 7.5 billion payments in the second quarter of 2022, led by growth in Same Day ACH and business-to-business (B2B) payments.

When is a payment a Micro-Entry and when isn't it? With the new Micro-Entry Rule taking effect in September, we take a closer look.

With one new Nacha Rule coming later this month and two others right behind in September, Nacha has a wealth of new and refreshed materials to help you along. 

ACH end users have consistently and constantly asked for higher dollar limits for Same Day ACH payments. In March 2020, the original limit of $25,000 was raised to $100,000. Then, two years later in March 2022, the limit was increased again to $1 million per payment.
