Automated Clearing House Payment Processing for Electronic Payments, Direct Deposits, and Automated Billing
Level up your contracting business with ACH payment processing that puts money in your pocket faster and reduces administrative overhead by up to 75%.
As a forward-thinking contractor, you understand that cash flow is the lifeblood of your operation. ACH (Automated Clearing House) payment processing isn't just about moving money—it's about building a financial foundation that scales with your ambitions. When integrated with Alliance's comprehensive ecosystem, ACH processing becomes your competitive advantage.
Key Benefits for Contractors:
Let's build a payment system that works as hard as you do.
ACH processing is the electronic network that facilitates bank-to-bank transfers in the United States. For contractors, this means direct, secure, and cost-effective payment processing that eliminates the friction between completed work and payment receipt.
The construction industry operates on tight margins and tighter timelines. Traditional payment methods—checks, cash, even credit cards—create bottlenecks that constrain growth. ACH processing removes these constraints:
Set up automatic payments for recurring contracts, maintenance agreements, and progress payments. Your clients pay on schedule, and you focus on building, not billing.
Credit card processing fees can consume 2-4% of transaction value. ACH fees typically range from $0.20-$1.50 per transaction, regardless of amount. On a $10,000 payment, that's the difference between $300 in fees versus $1.50.
Eliminate manual check processing, reduce accounts receivable workload, and minimize payment disputes through automated, documented transactions.
ACH processing isn't just another tool—it's the central nervous system of your Alliance-powered financial operations. Here's how it amplifies your entire business ecosystem:
Your ACH setup automatically handles employee direct deposits, contractor payments, and vendor remittances. One system, complete payroll management.
Generate invoices through Alliance billing systems, automatically trigger ACH payments, and update project financials in real-time. No double-entry, no delays, no errors.
Alliance's financial services partnerships provide preferred rates, expedited setup, and dedicated contractor support. You get enterprise-level capabilities with personalized service.
Link payment milestones to project completion stages. When you mark a phase complete, the system can automatically trigger progress payments through ACH processing.
This is what strategic partnership looks like—every system working together to accelerate your success.
Let's build your ACH processing capability with a systematic approach that ensures smooth implementation and immediate results.
