What is an electronic Check (also know as ACH)?
An electronic check (e-Check or ACH transfer) is similar to writing a check. The only difference is that you are authorizing the debiting of your checking/savings account online without the presentment of a physical paper check. Once you are logged on to the CASHNet® site and begin to the prepare to make a payment you will be asked which method of electronic payment you wish to use; credit card or electronic check (ACH). You will need your bank account number and routing number (located at the bottom of your paper checks). You can store this information on the secure CASHNet® site for future use, if you choose. If you choose not to store routing and account numbers on CASHNet® site you will have to enter information each time you make a payment.
