Save With Online Bill Pay

It’s everywhere on the news today. Debt is up, consumer confidence is down, and the bills never seem to end. Wouldn’t it be nice to finally hear some good news?

Well, we have some for you. Our online bill pay service can save you money. Here are four ways you can save with online bill pay:

Tip #1: Gas Prices

Online bill pay can help you cut down on extra mileage. As gas prices continue to increase, the fewer the trips the better, right? With online bill pay, you can pay all of your bills from home without having to drive to the post office or corner mail box. By limiting your use of personal checks, postage stamps, and trips to the post office, some studies suggest you can save up to $150 per year.

Tip #2: Late Fees

Late fees will get you every time. If you are looking to avoid unnecessary late fees—especially for credit cards, car loans, and mortgages—online bill pay can help you with automatic recurring payments. You can schedule recurring payments for any frequency you like. So if you have trouble remembering the due date, you can let online bill pay do the work for you.

Tip #3: Large Payments

We all have those large payments that are sometimes difficult to pay all at once. With online bill pay, you can schedule smaller payments more frequently. This is a simple yet efficient way to stretch your pocketbook.

Tip #4: Postage   

Didn’t they raise postage last year? Yes, stamps now cost $.44 each. But online bill pay will send the payments for you and never charge you for the postage. Think about it; If you mail ten payments each month, you will spend over $50 each year in postage. Stamps may not seem like much, but they add up over the course of a year.

These are just a few ways you can save with online bill pay. Please visit our website or one of our locations to learn more about online bill pay.

Bill Pay Plus is easily used for those bills that occur in the same amount every month. Bills like loan payments, trash services or your cable bill are great ways to utilize Bill Pay Plus. However, Bill Pay Plus is also very effective for paying bills that vary in amounts from month to month.
