What is the difference between ACH and wire?
Quick Answer
ACH is batch-processed (1-3 day standard, same-day available), cheap ($0.20-$1), reversible for errors, and US-only. Wire transfers are real-time, expensive ($15-$50 outgoing), final once sent, and work internationally via the SWIFT network.
