XWebServices, Inc. announces today the official launch of XWebACHDirectory, an XML/SOAP based Web Service which provides a standards-based approach to lookup FedACH Participant RDFIs: http://www.xwebservices.com/Web_Services/XWebACHDirectory/
If you are a Bank, Credit Union, Payment Gateway or any type of Financial Services company that deals with NACHA, ACH, Routing Numbers - fund transfers in general - you need a way to lookup and validate FedACH participant Receiving Depository Financial Institutions (RDFIs). Although the Federal Reserve provides a website where you can perform a lookup as well as download a publicly available flat file of all participants, you quickly realize that none of those options are viable solutions for the Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) you've embarked on for your enterprise. What you really need is a standards-based, reusable service that all your client applications can benefit from.
The XWebACHDirectory Web Service is the solution you are looking for - an XML/SOAP based Web Service, reusable, scalable and extremely affordable, it provides a standards-based approach to lookup FedACH Participant RDFIs. Make the XWebACHDirectory Web Service part of your Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) Financial Services applications today!

“Every developer out there can expose a Web Service – we do a better job because we take the time to study and implement standards coming out of organizations such as OASIS and WS-I. To top things off, we make the high-end result extremely affordable, so that any Financial Services organization (in this case) can achieve a SOA with a minimal investment” said Cristian Sturek, Founder and Principal SOA Architect of XWebServices, Inc.
