Asked on behalf of our CFO: According to the latest Tessitura documentation (wow, I actually read some of it!), Section 3.A.4 speaks of a Direct Debit Billing utility that is apparently only available in the U.K. at present.
What's the official word of [eventual, I presume] availability in the U.S.?
Anyone? Anyone?
Bueller?
Bonus Trivia: Cameron's father's Ferrari 250GT California Spyder, in Ferris Bueller's Day Off, was actually a fake. It was too expensive to rent one, so three fakes were made over MGs with fiberglass bodies. The effect was so complete that many enthusiasts wrote angry letters about wrecking such a special car in the movie.
Hi Kathryn,
Glad you liked the session and it helped to confirm your source setup decisions.
Unfortunately, it is not possible in the US to charge people’s bank accounts using account number and routing number. The closest you can get is using a debit card with credit card billing. As long as it is a debit card that can be run like a credit card, i.e. without a PIN, (which I think most are these days) it will work and the end result will be the same for the patron.

Hello Everyone
Has anyone looked into the function of e-cheques. The e-cheque gives you the ability to debit or credit someone's bank account.
This is available through Chase Paymentech, although only through their Orbital Gateway.
Exploring the possibility of implementing this with Tessitura in the future.
