Payment Types
Gravity's Payment Types are central to how Gravity will process payments. A Payment Type can be tied one of three processes:
- Checks - produces a printed check.
- Direct ACH Payments - processes a payment through the ACH Network
Payment Types connect an executing Gravity Bank Account making the payments to the Vendor that is receiving the payments. On the Vendor the Payment Type is part of the Vendors Payment Method that also hold key payment information like account numbers, Swift codes etc.
Multiple Payment types can share the same Export File Definition. For Example a NACHA export file definition can be shares with a US Bank Payment Type and a Canadian Bank Payment Type.
Vendors may have multiple Payment Methods ties to the same or different Payment Types
Examples of Payment Types include:
- US Direct ACH - Direct ACH Payments
- HSBC Dubai - XML Export File
- Australian Bank - ABA Export File
