Sign up for Free Online Bill Pay today!

 

Our Bill Pay program has successfully launched! Not only is it up and running, but we've tested it to make sure it works perfectly. Now any HPE Credit Union member with a checking account and online banking can let someone else do the work for them. Let someone else print out your check. Let someone else stuff the envelopes. Let someone else pay for postage.

After placing a survey on our web site, we found that 93% members polled said they would like us to initiate a Bill Pay service. So we did. HPE Credit Union has made a free Bill Pay program that will save members time, money and a lot of grief! All members with a checking account will be able to use our Online Banking program to access Bill Pay- for free.

Here is a demo version of the program, so you can familiarize yourself with it, if you'd like.

Our free Bill Pay program let’s you quickly and easily see all your expenses in one place and make a schedule for payment that will allow you to spend less time on paying your bills each month. Once you set up your list of payees, paying all your bills takes just a few moments. That sure beats sitting with the checkbook, trying to figure out where and when each bill should be sent out. Bill Pay is free, because you shouldn’t have to spend money to pay your bills. Let someone else spend the money printing out your check and paying to have it mailed. Think of the money you’ll save on stamps and envelopes each month!

Log in to your online banking and click the "Pay My Bills" button. If you are not signed up for free online banking, you can download an application right here on our web site by clicking the "Forms and Applications" menu. Mail the application in or drop it off at our branch office and we will send you temporary log-in information within a few days so you can get started and personalize your account.

Once you’re inside your online banking account and click "Pay My Bills," you simply enter in the contact information for any companies or persons that you need to make payment to. Schedule payments for certain dates or use "Quick Pay" to ask for payments to be made on the next possible withdrawal date. You can set automatic payments for recurring bills that are always a certain amount (like mortgage or rent payments) or you can change the amount sent each month after you get your varying bill. This is for balances that change month to month, such as utility bills, because all you have to do is enter in the amount each month.

It is suggested to leave at least 5 business days between the withdrawal date and the due date to make sure the company receives the funds on time. This is to ensure that companies which don’t accept electronic payments (the majority of companies don't accept electronic payments) will be able to receive the check we send through the U.S. mail and process it by the time your payment is due.

You’ll be able to modify your Bill Pay account anytime you need to, because in a changing world, HPE Credit Union wants to change with its members. We do that by offering you the most innovative, user-friendly services we can come up with! So sign up for our free Bill Pay program today and enjoy the time and money you’ll save.
