# Same-day ACH payments swell in Q2 > Evidence tier: B1 > Evidence type: Independent payments trade media report based on Nacha network data > Source: [Payments Dive](https://www.paymentsdive.com/news/same-day-ach-payments-swell-in-q2/827287) > Published: 2026-08-07 > Captured: 2026-08-07T15:05:02.206Z ## Source summary Payments Dive reports that Same Day ACH volume increased 29.5% year over year to 435.7 million transactions in Q2 2026 and value increased 28.1% to $1.3 trillion. Across the full ACH Network, quarterly volume reached 9.3 billion payments and value reached $25.9 trillion, up 6.2% and 11.1% respectively. ## Why it matters The data shows growing demand for faster bank-account settlement and provides a useful operating benchmark for payment providers connecting to U.S. accounts. ACH is a domestic U.S. rail, so these figures do not by themselves establish faster cross-border settlement; international operators still depend on the FX, compliance and correspondent steps around the domestic endpoint. ## Key numbers - **Q2 Same Day ACH volume:** 435.7 million (+29.5% YoY) - **Q2 Same Day ACH value:** $1.3 trillion (+28.1% YoY) - **Q2 total ACH Network volume:** 9.3 billion (+6.2% YoY) - **Q2 total ACH Network value:** $25.9 trillion (+11.1% YoY) ## Topics and entities - Industry lane: Payment infrastructure - Entities: Nacha / ACH Network - Payment infrastructure ## Evidence and credibility note Independent Payments Dive reporting based on Nacha's network statistics.
