Bill Payments Processing
Bill payments are processed either through an electronic transmission to the payee or by check drawn on the Company’s account and mailed to the payee. Payees who receive electronic delivery will receive the Company’s payment information, including account number with the payee, through a computer link. All checks are sent through the US mail. Payments made with checks are generally received and credited by most payees within five to seven business days. If the Bank receives any payment instructions from a payee, the Bank may follow those instructions to help ensure that the payment is received by the payee and promptly credited to the Company’s account.
To help ensure that payments arrive on time, the Company must schedule payments at least five business days before the payment due date. This generally allows sufficient time for the payee to receive and post the payment.
Business Days
The Bank can process a bill payment on the same business day as the Company’s instructions, if the Bank receives the instructions before the cut-off hour of 8 p.m. Central Time on a business day.
