There are several reasons why an ACH deposit may fail:
Incorrect bank details: The bank account details or routing number are invalid.
Account frozen: The bank details provided are for an account that has been frozen by the bank.
Account closed: The bank details are linked to an account that is no longer active.
Insufficient funds: The account has an insufficient balance to clear the deposit amount.
Unauthorized debit: Your bank has rejected the payment because impact.com has not been added as an authorized creditor, or whitelisted.
To prevent ACH deposit failures, follow these best practices:
Verify account information: Double-check that you have entered your bank account and routing numbers correctly. A single incorrect digit can cause the transaction to fail.
Maintain a sufficient balance: Ensure that your bank account has enough funds to cover the deposit amount before initiating the transaction.
Authorize impact.com: To avoid unauthorized debits, ensure that you have added impact.com as an authorized creditor (whitelist) with your bank. Use the company IDs below to set this up:
For online banking: 7261120226
