Bill Pay FAQs

An eBill is an electronic billing option that some companies have that will allow you to connect your payee through Bill Pay to their billing system. 

This way when your bill is sent out, instead of having to view your bill and schedule your payment, you can view the ebill and/or have it automatically paid. 

If it is sent electronically you will want to schedule it 2 business days prior to the due date to ensure delivery. 

No, there is no additional cost to use Bill Pay for personal accounts. There is a fee for business accounts.
