ACH Payment Gateway for Treatment Centres

An ACH payment gateway enables a treatment centre to accept direct bank-to-bank payments from patients. Apt Financial’s ACH processing is designed for substance use disorder treatment centres and behavioural health providers, supporting transparent transaction-based pricing, detailed monthly reporting, and next-day settlement options. It can be used alongside card processing and recurring billing to give providers more ways to collect patient financial responsibility amounts.

The patient authorises a payment from a bank account, and the transaction is processed electronically through the payment platform. Apt Financial supports ACH bank transfers as part of a broader treatment-focused payment solution. Providers can combine ACH with recurring billing, virtual terminals, payment links, and reporting tools to organise collections and review attempted and successful transactions.

ACH bank transfers generally have lower transaction fees than credit card processing, and Apt Financial specifically offers lower transaction fees for ACH transfers. Exact pricing depends on the agreed payment arrangement and transaction details. Apt Financial presents transparent pricing with no hidden fees and provides detailed monthly reports by transaction to support clearer payment oversight.
