Schwab Payment File Requirements

Schwab Payment File Requirements

Schwab requires the following 2 columns in the order given below.  Headers are not needed and the file should have no special characters (like “$”) or commas (",").

-Payment Account Number

-Fee Amount

 

Leading zeros on account numbers need to be left off or removed for successful submission to Schwab. Though Schwab sends us account numbers with two leading zeros, they do not want the payment file to include those. Simply open the payment file in Excel and save. By default, when opening the csv file, the leading zeros should be removed from account numbers. The file should then be ready for submission.
