ACH Direct Debit Authorization Program
The Automated Clearing House program – or ACH – allows Optimist Clubs
to pay their bills electronically. It’s an easy and efficient way for Clubs
to handle their financial obligations to Optimist International. Best of all,
the program is secure!
To initiate the ACH direct debit bill form of payment for a Club, Optimist International
needs the following two items:
1. A completed "authorization agreement for direct debits" form. You
must choose the agreement applicable to your Club:
US Dollar ACH Debit Authorization Agreement
Canadian Dollar Pre-authorized
Payment Agreement
2. A voided check or bank draft (or copy) for the bank account from which you
would like us to withdraw money (debit). Please do not use a deposit slip. Note:
Only one bank account per Club can be assigned for ACH.
You can fax both the completed authorization agreement form and a voided check
image to the attention of Michele Ervin at (314) 371-6006.
Or mail the information to:
