Payment Options

There are three supplier payment options:

Bullet Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) - This can be facilitated in one of two ways:

Automated Clearing House (ACH) - This is a bank-to-bank transaction between DTE Energy's bank and your financial institution. This settlement process can take up to two business days. ACH is our preferred method of reimbursement.

Wire Transfer - This is a bank-to-bank transaction between DTE Energy's bank and your financial institution. This settlement process is one business day and the funds are guaranteed.

When settling EFT transactions, both parties agree to be bound by the Operating Rules of the National Clearing House Association (NACHA).

To sign-up for EFT payments, download and complete the Electronic Transfer Authorization form (pdf)*. Mail it to the address that appears at the bottom of the form.

Bullet Credit Card

We use a corporate credit card for point-of-service purchases. This is our preferred method of payment for low-dollar, high-volume transactions.

Bullet Paper Checks

We also process paper checks and mail these payments to our suppliers per the contract or purchase order terms and conditions.
