Bill Payment - Provides ease and convenience paying bills

Bill Pay offers paper-free convenience and the ability to view and pay bills using a personal computer. A database of payees is included for easy access of payee information including payment history. Bill Payment allows you to schedule one-time payments and recurring payments through your Internet Banking platform. The requested payments are forwarded to a third party Bill Payment service provider that either creates the necessary ACH credit (Automated Clearing House) by electronically transferring the funds to the recipient's account or by sending a check along with payment information to the payee.
