Port of New Orleans Implementing ACH Payment Option for Maritime Fees
The Area Port of New Orleans is rolling out an ACH payment option for maritime-related fees, expanding electronic payment capabilities at that port. Maritime cargo handlers and vessel operators paying fees at New Orleans will have a new payment channel available.
Our position is that ACH availability for maritime fees at New Orleans reduces friction in the payment process and is a net operational improvement for parties with recurring maritime fee obligations at that port.
