Have you
tried online bill payment service yet? Online bill payment makes paying bills
less painful, reduces the risk of identity theft, and makes it easier to pay off credit cards
and other debts. This versatile tool is
available for free to all Coosa Valley Credit Union members.
You can
do it—Anyone with internet
access easily can learn to use online bill payment to manage money. Online bill
payment lets you automate payments to take place on a set date every month,
schedule a bill for payment weeks before a specific date, or simply go online
to make payments to be delivered in just a few days.
Tie
payment to paydays—Since
you can schedule payments for a specific date, you can tie payments to paydays.
If your ability to pay changes before the payment is sent, just go online to
alter the payment date or amount.
Even when
you forget about a bill until it's due, online bill payment can help by
minimizing the delay between when the payment is sent and when the recipient
acknowledges its arrival, reducing late fees and interest charges.
Reduce
risk—Mailing a check
from your home mailbox makes an ID thief's job so easy. The account information
printed on both bills and paper checks offers a wealth of data to thieves who
could misuse the information to open accounts in your name. Using an online
bill payment service reduces this risk.
Manage
your debt—Online
bill payment can also be a good strategy for reducing debt. For example, you
can make extra online payment on loans
at every payday, thereby reducing your balance quicker. The smaller the
balance, the smaller your interest payment.
