Payment Services - Collect ACH debit payments through Stripe
Please allow us to collect ACH direct debit payments through Stripe, and not force us to use a 3rd solution (GoCardless) for that.
Stripe offers direct debit ACH when sending invoices directly from Stripe. There is no reason it shouldn't be available through Xero.

This is very important as Go Cardless only allows for recurring payments. Not sure why this is not available.

Hi, why can't we collect ACH payments through Stripe just like you offer GoCardless (which isn't really free)?!
The same pay now link used to collect cc info should also be able to collect bank info for ACH. Just like when sending invoices from Stripe directly.

Hi everyone, entering 2022 and coming back to the conversation here there are a few updates to share.
GoCardless integration has been updated and the way you connect and can sync data has been enhanced.
When it comes to processing automated clearing house (ACH) payments we want to be upfront that we don't have plans for building the ability to do this directly on Xero. That being said, there are connected payment service integrators like GoCardless and Stripe that you can use to service this need.
We'll close this request so you can have your vote back from this idea, and encourage exploring the services of payment services that can provide this for your business.

Stripe just rolled out the option to accept payments using ACH. I use Xero to invoice clients for payments with the Stripe Add-On. Many of my business clients prefer to send a check that comes from their banking account. If the invoice included the ACH option (along with the credit card payment), I feel sure more of them would pay the invoice electronically, which would eliminate paper and added time to deposit the checks. Yay! I have faith in Xero that you will implement this soon. :) Thanks!
