ACH transfers, rebuilt for security & speed
Forget fraud, failures, and lost funds. Minimize the risk associated with ACH transfers and get funds into destination accounts as fast as possible.
An introduction to Accelerated Bank Transfers
One of the most common ways of transferring funds is via ACH (Automated Clearing House). That being said, the transfer structure isn’t totally risk-proof, while standard timelines just aren’t up to snuff. With Astra, ACH transfers come with improved fraud detection and — you guessed it — speed.
