Glossary · Doing the deal
In short
ACH stands for Automated Clearing House, an electronic network for processing financial transactions in the US. It's commonly used for direct deposits, bill payments, and recurring loan payments.
Your SBA 7(a) loan payments will almost certainly be set up through ACH for automatic withdrawal from your business bank account. This ensures timely payments, which is crucial for maintaining good standing with your lender. Verify the setup details during loan closing to prevent any missed payments.
