What is e-NACH?

e-NACH (electronic National Automated Clearing House) process is an e-mandate facility built on top of the NACH platform built and maintained by NPCI. It can help businesses such as banks, NBFCs, telecom operators, insurance companies, and other corporate entities to ensure recurring collection of funds belonging to their customers who opt for the direct debit type of payments.

The primary underlying objective of e-Nach is to help businesses reduce the follow-up time for recurring transactions, etc. e-NACH comes with a one-time authorization of the mandate, and posts that recurring payments are automatically debited from customers’ accounts. You can even save yourself from the hassle of manually scheduling your premium payments at the start of the applicable period.

The process is routed so that, after a customer approves the mandate via Debit Card or Netbanking, the mandate moves from the corporate to the sponsor bank and then to the destination bank by including the customer's specific attributes.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is an e-mandate?

An e-mandate is an electronic version of a mandate, a standing instruction (SI) given to a bank or NBFC to periodically debit a fixed amount from the account of the customer authorizing the mandate.

What are the use cases of e-mandate?

e-mandates are helpful tools for recurring and one-time payments and are used for various reasons. Recurring payments for OTT subscriptions, utility bills, loan EMIs, insurance premiums, mutual fund investments, and subscriptions to gaming platforms all involve e-mandates in some form.

How is eNACH different from e-mandate?

eNACH is the infrastructure on which recurring payments occur. e-mandates, on the other hand, are the instructions that govern these recurring payments.
