Welcome to Moov's Ruby guide to using our Automated Clearing House (ACH) library and HTTP service! ACH is used to transfer trillions of dollars annually in the United States of America. The underlying format sends plaintext files between Financial Insitutions and the United States FED.

Example usecases of ACH:

  • Direct Deposit from your employer, government benefits (Social Security)
  • Paying a friend via apps (P2P payments)
  • Stock / Retirement investments or withdrawls

We offer documentation on how ACH works and Gusto has an excellent four part series on "How ACH works: A developer perspective".
