No. While Automated Clearing House (ACH) or Electronic Funds Transfers may seem to be a faster way to process a check payment, (see next question below) all such services charge a per transaction (per check) fee and/or a percentage discount. Our system produces what is known as a one-time paper draft. A one-time paper draft does not require the account holder's signature and must be accepted by any US Bank. The drafts are in the format of a regular check, including the necessary MICR line. See similar questions...
