Getting Started

Once you have your Merchant ID from the NET1 team, then your integration starts in the store admin.

  • Click the App Store link in the main menu

  • Click the Payment category to filter the list.

  • Click the provider you prefer and follow the directions to finish the integration.

Enable it in the Payment section

  • We recommend restricting it to Invoice payments only.

When selecting invoices or paying on the storefront they will now see the ACH option.

You can enable ACH for the following

  • Storefront Orders

    • Not recommended for any customers you wouldn't extended credit to as ACH can take 3-5 days to be sent to your bank.

  • Invoice and Account payments

You can also add Convenience Fees / Surcharges to both Apps, if you need to pass on fees to your customer

ACH - How do we know payment was approved?

ACH payments can take several days to fully move through the ACH processors. Thus, you will need to login to Nuvei regularly to confirm a payment has been made. You will see the Approval status in the transaction area of Nuvei cPanel.

How do I reconcile my ACH and Credit cards?

See this article on reconciling both ACH and Credit card payments. https://docs.evolutionx.io/en/articles/10454610-spruce-ach-credit-cards-reconciliation

What happens when an ACH payment is made?

When an ACH payment is processed, it is sent to Spruce, and the corresponding invoices are marked as β€œPaid.”

Does the ACH β€œPaid” status in Spruce mean the money is in my account?

No, the β€œPaid” status only indicates a successful transaction. It does not confirm that the funds have reached your account.

How can I confirm the ACH funds have been received?

You must reconcile your ACH payments to verify that the funds have been deposited into your account.

Can ACH payments initially succeed but later fail?

Yes, ACH payments can initially be successful but may later report as NSF (Non-Sufficient Funds). If this happens, you must manually remove the β€œPaid” status from the relevant Spruce invoices and contact the customer to address the unsuccessful payment.

How long does it take for ACH payments to be funded?

ACH payments typically take 3–5 days to be funded and appear in your account.

What happens if a consumer rejects an ACH transaction?

If a consumer disputes or rejects an ACH transaction, they have up to six months to file the objection. When this occurs, the funds will be withdrawn from your account.
