ACH Verification Process

ACH Verification Process

  • To pay by ACH, a valid routing, account number, and phone number must be entered

  • Upon entry, the ACH routing, account and phone numbers will be verified by the client’s bank and the PlayerFirst external processor, pre-checkout. The verification process will check for:

    • Invalid account or routing number

    • Mismatching customer address

    • Mismatching customer phone number

    • Note: The 3rd party database has account closed information for 80-90% of all US bank accounts; this info is updated daily

    • Note: There are no soft declines - a verification is either approved, declined, or not processed for an administrative reason

  • If any of the above is true, and cannot be re-entered correctly by the customer, an alternate payment method must be selected

  • If an ACH payment is rejected, an email will be triggered to the customer notifying them of the rejection and asking them to update their payment information in PlayerFirst.
