Processing ACH Members

Here are the steps you will do to process your ACH member charges:

1.Select members to charge
Create a list of members due on or before the billing date.

2.Clean up invalid ACH info
Any members with invalid bank info can be fixed.

3.Process the payments
Charge member credit cards.

4.Record payments
All payments are recorded in Gym Assistant.

5.Process Returns
Any rejected payments are reversed or voided once you are notified by the processor. (see Processing Returns section below)

There are very important differences between processing a credit card transactions and ACH transactions.

Credit card charges are processed in real-time -- once a charge is approved the funds are transferred automatically.

An ACH transaction; however, is a request to transfer funds -- exactly like depositing a check, you won't know for 3-4 business days if the transfer is successful or not.
