Why Pay Electronically? Let’s Do the Math Cost to process Check $2.25 Cost to process ACH$0.15 The math: 1500 checks/mo. at $2.25 each = $3,375 Annual cost = $40,500 If 50% move to ACH at $0.15 each: Savings of $2.25 - $0.15 = $2.10 each 750 ACH payments x $2.10 = $ 1,575 per month An Annual Savings of $18,900 !
