SeamlessChex ACH-float is not NMI capture-to-settle delay
Weight delayed settlement $ by delay days on one SeamlessChex settle cut. That weighted clock is SC ACH-float days.
Pair: Settlement-delay days on Payments. NMI twin: capture-to-settle. Hold twin: settlement-hold days.
What you type
Delayed settlement $ — SeamlessChex ACH settlement dollars still floating / delayed in the cut.
Delay days — Days those dollars sat before settle / release in that same cut.
SC ACH-float days = (delayed settlement $ × delay days) ÷ delayed settlement $. Fat SC ACH-float days usually means ACH batch / float rules — chase that path; never invent an SC ACH-float chip.
What not to do
Skip inventing SC ACH-float days. Skip pasting NMI or Braintree capture/settle day indexes into SeamlessChex fields. Skip folding hold-start/release calendars into ACH-float $. Skip blending MIDs when one ACH seat owns the float pile.

- Is this SeamlessChex settlement-hold days?
- Sibling SeamlessChex door on hold calendars, not $-weighted float. [Settlement-hold days](/manuals/seamless-settlement-hold-days) is hold start to release. This page is delayed settlement $ × delay days.
- What SC ACH-float days should I invent?
- None. Pull delayed settlement $ and delay days from the same SeamlessChex settle cut.
