ACH (Automated Clearing House) transfers are a safe and easy means of electronically paying fees. This payment method is incorporated with the PA CLE paperless reporting software (ASAP/APPro) and has been used successfully by CLE providers since 2001 and received extremely positive feedback. The payment process is initiated by the CLE provider and offers a fully documented audit trail for financial tracking. The most compelling reason to engage in electronic payments is to increase service levels to lawyers. ACH processing ensures that CLE credits are reported and posted to lawyer transcripts approximately 50% faster than payment by check. If your organization has not signed up for electronic payments, please strongly consider doing so today.
