Charge an eCheck/ACH account

The check sale transaction authorizes a sale purchased with an eCheck/ACH. The transaction is sent to the merchant account’s configured check processor. Currently, Heartland ACH and Sage/Geti are available check processors, depending on the merchant account’s needs and configuration.

Charge an eCheck/ACH account

var response = check.Charge(10.00m)
            .WithCurrency("USD")
            .WithAddress(address)
            .Execute();
<?php
$response = $check->charge(10)
            ->withCurrency("USD")
            ->withAddress($address)
            ->execute();
import com.global.api.entities.Transaction;
import java.math.BigDecimal;

Transaction response = check.charge(new BigDecimal("10"))
            .withCurrency("USD")
            .withAddress(address)
            .execute();
# coming soon
response = check.charge(10) \
            .with_currency('USD') \
            .with_address(address) \
            .execute()
const response = await check.charge(10)
            .withCurrency("USD")
            .withAddress(address)
            .execute();

Void an eCheck/ACH account

CheckVoid is used to cancel a previously successful CheckSale transaction. It can also be used to cancel a prior CheckSale transaction. This should be used in timeout situations or when a complete response is not received.

Void an eCheck/ACH account

Transaction voidResponse = Transaction.FromId(response.TransactionId, PaymentMethodType.ACH)
            .Void()
            .Execute();
<?php
Transaction::fromId($response->transactionId, null, PaymentMethodType::ACH) // arguments are required 
            ->void()
            ->execute();
import com.global.api.entities.Transaction;
import com.global.api.entities.enums.PaymentMethodType;    

Transaction voidResponse =Transaction.FromId(response.TransactionId,PaymentMethodType.ACH)
            .Void()
            .Execute();
# coming soon
# coming soon
Transaction voidResponse = Transaction.FromId(response.TransactionId, PaymentMethodType.ACH) 
            .Void()
            .Execute();
