Apparatus and methods provide an accumulator that processes electronic payments from an employer to a recipient via a network. The payments processed may be, for example, child support payments collected from an employee by the employer. The employer may submit one transaction made up of payments collected from multiple employees bound for multiple recipients and the accumulator may receive, translate, batch, and deliver the payments to the multiple recipients. The accumulator, employers, and recipients may communicate via a network such as the Internet.

1. A system for processing a payment at an accumulator over a network, comprising: means for receiving employer information from an employer via the network;means for storing the employer information;means for receiving employee information corresponding to an employee from the employer via the network;means for storing the employee information;means for verifying the employee information using verification information received from an intermediary; andwhen the employee information is verified, means for creating a payment corresponding to the employee information,means for submitting the payment to a financial clearinghouse via the network, andmeans for storing data related to the payment. 2. A method for processing a payment at an accumulator over a network, comprising: receiving employer information from an employer via the network;storing the employer information in an accumulator database;receiving an employee payment profile corresponding to an employee from the employer via the network;storing the employee payment profile in the accumulator database;verifying the employee payment profile using verification information received from an intermediary; andwhen the employee payment profile is verified, creating a payment corresponding to the employee payment profile,processing a debit to a financial clearinghouse via the network, the debit to be applied against an account of the employer,receiving a credit from the financial clearinghouse via the network, the credit to be applied to an account of the intermediary, andstoring data related to the payment in a payment database. 3. The method of claim 2, further including: managing communication with the employer via the network. 4. The method of claim 2, further including: managing communication with the intermediary via the network. 5. The method of claim 2, further including: administering the accumulator. 6. The method of claim 2, wherein the debit is processed using debit-based electronic funds transfer. 7. The method of claim 2, wherein the credit is processed using addendum-based electronic data interchange. 8. The method of claim 2, wherein the employee information relates to a child support payment. 9. The method of claim 2, wherein the network is the Internet. 10. The method of claim 2, wherein the network is an intranet. 11. The method of claim 2, wherein the network is a wireless network. 12. The method of claim 2, wherein the network is a wired network. 13.
