The Benefit of ACH Payments for Boaters:

  • Save time with instant bank account integration in Dockwa, you can skip filling out paper authorization forms for bank details, making payment processing even more efficient.

  • Never be late on a payment again!

    • By paying with your bank account, direct debit automatically deducts scheduled payments from your selected account.

Are ACH Payments Secure?

  • ACH transactions are subject to strict regulatory requirements that increase their security and reliability.
