Electronic payments (ACH payments) that are submitted by 8:30 p.m., Eastern Time (ET), should be posted within two business days to the firm’s Web CRD Daily and/or Renewal Accounts with FINRA.

 

Web CRD/IARD E-Pay, allows a firm to authorize electronic payment directly from its designated bank account to the firm's Daily and/or Renewal Accounts. FINRA does not charge firms any fees for utilizing Web CRD/IARD E-Pay; however, firms should verify with their bank whether that bank will assess fees for utilizing Web CRD/IARD E-Pay. Enrollment is required to use the Web CRD/IARD E-Pay application.
