ACH
10:45-11:35 AM | Room: Crystal H
While nearly half of all consumer bills are paid via ACH, speakers reveal the underlying reasons why many companies still do not leverage ACH as a payment method. Each speaker is challenged to examine the user experience, risk concerns, and transaction fees of credit/debit cards and and PayPal, and address how new innovations such as online bank login, Same Day ACH, The Clearing House's Real-Time Payments rail, and Zelle are either starting to shift the paradigm or are falling short of user expectations.
Questions answered by this session:
1. What is keeping big tech companies – experience, risk, fees – from offering ACH as a payment method?
2. Are the recent advances in direct bank payments meeting the expectations of these corporates and, if not, what capabilities are still needed to create a seamless payment experience?
