Same-Day ACH

Originating financial institutions (ODFIs) will be able to submit files of same-day ACH payments through two new clearing windows provided by the FedACH Operators:

  • Effective March 19, 2021, a third final daily batch, if an RDFI receives ACH credits from an ODFI the operating hours of Same Day ACH are opportunity to clear and settle Same Day ACH payments. Now, Same Day ACH payments can be submitted by financial institutions to their ACH Operator until 4:45 p.m. eastern time, with settlement of funds occurring at 6 p.m. eastern time. The ACH Network settles payments four times each business day.
  • Effective March 18, 2022
    - Same-Day ACH $1 Million per Transaction Limit

FedNow and Same-Day ACH are both payment systems in the United States, but they differ in several key aspects:

1.     Speed: The primary difference between FedNow and Same-Day ACH is the speed of payment processing. FedNow is designed to enable instant payments, allowing funds to be transferred in real-time, 24/7, 365 days a year. In contrast, Same-Day ACH allows for same-day processing of ACH transactions but does not guarantee instant availability of funds. Same-Day ACH transactions typically settle in batches throughout the day, with multiple processing windows.

2.     Availability: FedNow operates on a 24/7 basis, meaning it is available at all times, including weekends and holidays. This provides greater flexibility and accessibility for instant payments. Same-Day ACH, on the other hand, operates within specific processing windows on business days only, excluding weekends and holidays. While Same-Day ACH offers faster processing compared to traditional ACH, it does not provide instant availability of funds outside of its processing windows.

3.     Transaction Limits: FedNow is expected to have higher transaction limits compared to Same-Day ACH. Instant payments through FedNow are likely to accommodate larger transaction amounts, making it suitable for various use cases, including high-value payments. Same-Day ACH, while offering faster processing, may have limitations on the maximum transaction size allowed within its system.

4.     Fees: Both FedNow and Same-Day ACH may involve fees, but the fee structure and pricing models may differ. Financial institutions may charge fees for initiating or receiving instant payments through FedNow, while Same-Day ACH transactions may also incur fees depending on the service provider and the type of transaction.

5.     Settlement: FedNow settles transactions instantly, providing immediate availability of funds to the recipient. In contrast, Same-Day ACH transactions settle within the same business day but may not be immediately available for use by the recipient. The availability of funds in Same-Day ACH transactions is subject to the receiving bank's policies and processing timelines.

Overall, while both FedNow and Same-Day ACH offer faster payment options compared to traditional methods, FedNow distinguishes itself by providing real-time, 24/7 payments with immediate availability of funds, whereas Same-Day ACH offers same-day processing within specific windows on business days. The choice between the two systems depends on the specific needs of the parties involved, including speed, availability, transaction limits, and cost considerations.

 

What is Same-Day ACH?

Automated Clearing House (ACH) is an electronic digital network for financial transactions in the United States. ACH processes large volumes of credit and debit transactions in batches. Debit transfers also include new applications such as the point-of-purchase (POP) check conversion (ARC) and more, (see ACH transaction types) NACHA. Both the government and the commercial sectors use ACH payments. Businesses increasingly use ACH online to have customers pay, rather than via credit or debit cards. ACH is a computer-based clearing and settlement facility established to process the exchange of electronic transactions between participating depository institutions. Account-to-account (A2A) transfers that utilize a system connected to every transaction participant through all U.S.-based financial institutions. Funds are available for use by the receiver same-day. Most ACH transactions are "ACH Credit" or "ACH Debit."
