What are Electronic Bills?
Electronic bills are a way to receive your bills electronically, rather than by traditional mail. Some major billers, such as utility companies and credit cards, offer the ability to send your bills directly to online bill payment rather than sending a paper copy to your house. Most billers will send you an e-mail notifying you a new bill has been sent to online bill payment. You can then log on to online bill payment, review your bill online, and schedule your payment. You can opt to receive electronic bills from participating billers in the “Manage My Bills” section of online bill payment. You can also sign up for the e-mail notifications within online bill payment.
Our BillPay vendor, CheckFree, has established relationships with many Billers nationwide that offer electronic versions of bills, also known as e-Bills. Electronic bills contain the same information that is included in the printed bills normally sent to you by your Billers. All electronic bills are delivered to BillPay. After the request for an electronic version of a bill is successfully processed, an electronic bill icon will appear next to the Biller Name on the Payment Center page.
