FAQ

How does pricing work in ApprovalMax Pay?

ApprovalMax Pay uses different pricing models depending on the payment method you choose. There are no hidden fees, and charges are clearly shown before you make a payment.

How am I charged for payments?

Payments are pay-as-you-go: no subscription, maintenance or inactivity fees. You pay per payment made from your balance, and the fee depends on the payment method: standard ACH, Instant (RTP), domestic wire, international local payment or SWIFT wire.

Full pricing is in the table below.

Are there any fees for holding a balance?

No. ApprovalMax Pay does not charge account-opening, balance-holding, or maintenance fees. Fees apply only when a payment is executed.

How does FX pricing work

An FX rate is applied at the time of conversion and shown before you confirm. Rates depend on the currencies involved and market conditions.

Can I see fees before making a payment?

Yes. Any applicable fees and FX rates are displayed during payment setup, before final approval and execution.

What is an Instant (RTP) payment?

Instant payments are coming soon. When you choose Instant for a payment, and your vendor's bank accepts RTP, the money usually lands in your vendor's account within seconds. Instant is not available on US public holidays. You can always pay by standard ACH or domestic wire instead.

What happens if an Instant payment can't be delivered instantly?

We only offer Instant when your vendor's bank accepts RTP. In rare cases, a specific account at that bank can't receive the payment instantly. We then send it by standard ACH so your vendor is still paid, and the Instant fee still applies.

What's the difference between SWIFT OUR and SHA?

With OUR, you cover all transfer fees, so your vendor receives the full amount. With SHA, fees are shared, and intermediary banks may deduct charges from the amount your vendor receives.
