Webinar Details

There are many ways to send money abroad. International ACH is often misunderstood, yet it can be an efficient, low-cost way to make payments to other countries.

This 60-minute International ACH webinar explains what it is, how the process flow works, the payment types involved, and the IAT (International ACH Transaction). You'll learn how it differs from US domestic ACH, the reasons to choose it, and when it may be preferable to a wire transfer.

The session also covers the customer benefits and value proposition, and introduces the International Payments Framework Association (IPFA), which is creating global standards to make international ACH easier and addressing its common issues.
