Examiners on your back about contingency for your ACH? Are you looking for an substitute point to receive your ACH receipt files?

Via our internet based APEX-ACH product, VolCorp can receive your receipt file on your behalf if your current access becomes disabled as well as process your returns. During the set up process, VolCorp will work closely with you to perform all testing to ensure you receive your ACH receipt file in the correct format that your data processing system needs as well as showing you the ease of processing your ACH returns. Origination is also an option and as easy to test. You can document and use the set up process as a testing of your ACH contingency plan.
We are always looking for ways to better serve you, and this is one of them. Because of the versatility of the APEX- ACH you are able to access the system from any internet location.
