For customers with accounts in the US: same-day settlement option for ACH Debit transactions

Last updated: 28 August 2017

On 15 September 2017, the US National Automated Clearing House Association (NACHA) will enable same-day settlement for ACH Debit payments. In support of this update, HSBCnet’s ACH Debit payment service will be enhanced on 25 September 2017 to allow you to submit US ACH Debit payments that are settled on the same day’s value date.

In order to submit your ACH Debit payments with same-day settlement, your payments must be:

created and authorised before 12:00 noon EST;
less than or equal to USD $25,000; and
issued to a domestic beneficiary (where beneficiary bank location is located within the US).

Please note, ACH Debit payments submitted for same-day processing are subject to additional charges. For pricing information, please contact your HSBC representative.

If you do not wish to send a same-day ACH Debit payment and incur the additional charges, please send a standard ACH Debit payment by proving the value date as the next/future business day’s date.

For instructions on how to create a same-day ACH Debit payment, please review the US ACH payment Quick Guide by selecting ‘Help’ in the Create Payment Instruction service, or contact your local HSBCnet Support Centre.
